Yellow was the tweeter I had suspicion's on, red is the one I wish all three measured like, blue/grey split the difference at 10K but has more energy overall above the XO point. I guess I might have expected too much from a $22 tweeter, but this is kind of disappointing. Oh well, they still sound pretty good so will go with it. I'll leave tweeter number three in place and call it good.
The woofers match very well, surprisingly.
I might do a writeup on this, maybe this weekend yet.
Pretty nuts for what.. $85/pair in drivers, regular price?
Probably just missing the HD2 tickle from the 3-way mid.
I didn't know the DC28 would cross that low. It seemed some of the reviews said it wouldn't so I tried to go a bit higher when I used mine. But that was years ago and I've learned some since then. https://i.imgur.com/WYUZdRf.jpg
I've never used the Silkie, but that's pretty impressive for the price. Too bad about the QC problems. Maybe they could charge extra for matching, like they do with tubes.
Every time I see some youtube video of 'audiophiles' discussing things in a gathering, it predominantly bunch of silver headed peeps - thus i keep top of head hairless, well not much of choice in that matter.

You have made the grade with Brad, JR.
Awesome.
Pretty sure the ones i used years ago had the hump.
I'll find out this weekend which one is an outlier I guess. Or it will land in the middle lol.
Replacement tweeter showed up today, will throw it in and measure it up. If it also has the 10k peak then I will have a matched pair, at least.

Also distortion at 90db/1M:
I really like the results of this simple 2way. Very cool....

IIRC, the Silkie was used to 1kHz on the Tritrix MTM.

Simplified cabinet design with correct dimensions.
I used an entire bag of Wal-Mart poly fill per side on these, measured Q was around 1.1.
I still have a set of silkies in the kick panels of my Saturn. I'm guessing since somewhere around 2000?
The current silkies are different I guess.
Was your new one way different?

No, was within expectations.
But I think 10 or 15 years ago they "revised" it.
I know about 20 years ago they had to find a new build house. That made what is Gen4.

Ok, yeah I knew there was a change just don't want to believe it was 20 years ago since that means I'm old
We need more younger guys around here .......like me.🤣🤣🤣

As I lose it on top it starts popping out greys on mah face.
In my ears!
These are pretty nice, I think will raise a few eyebrows.
Can't wait to hear them.
Me too
I'm lucky in that I've kept most of my hair at almost 50, but my beard is rapidly greying. I also do not have ear hair or crazy eyebrows yet lol.

Sweet! Those should sell well.
According to the ad copy, it looks like Brad will be doing a floor standing rendition of this.
