Thanks for the Xover freq. Don. I found one more tweeter that I think will mate well.. Dayton Audio AMT Mini-8 Air Motion Transformer Tweeter, 8 Ohm. for only 30$! If they don't match, I can chuck them. It's IMPOSSIBLE to recreate a true concert hall 'sound' at home. Last week I listened to the Vienna Phil playing Mahler 9, where the LIVE, ABSOLUTE sound from the 'highs' of the strings, brass and winds was.. edgy, harsh, rough, very LOUD and so piercing.. definitely not the SMOOTH top that hifi afficiandos seek.. thus I see no point in trying to get the room, speakers etc 'right'. For the price of those electronics one can get so many more recordings on Decca, RCA, Mercury of Operas, Symphonies etc. to enjoy the music as recordings and/or get good seats at the Vienna Opera and Concert Halls for years.
