A friend has just bot one of those puny single ended tube amps. He has asked me to help develop a speaker for it. He has a powered woofer to use on the bottom and an active crossover for the W to TM cross. So I thought a high efficiency dipole would do the trick for the mids on up.
Current plans are to use a Fostex 208E Sigma as the mid and perhaps a Ribbon on the very top.
He has ordered Olsher's Basszilla plans to see his suggestions and they are in route. In the meantime does anyone have any suggestions as to a good value tweeter (ribbon or otherwise) that would be a good match? By good value I mean reasonable performance for a low price.
Also, if anyone has some suitable parallel crossover and voicing suggestions, I would love to see them. I am told Olsher uses series crossovers and I find them very hard to work with.
Any other suggestions re: high efficiency dipoles for the described purpose will be greatly appreciated.
