I believe that there are different impedance versions.

do you have one?. cheers, mike.

I'm hanging on to it/them!!! Spares for my Rogers LS3/6's.

What are they to go in?

Ah, not just used as a supertweeter then like in my LS3'6s.

Trouble is finding a good one, I reckon that quite a lot that appear second hand are not fully functional, they can go low output.

Perhaps consider the modern alternatives, there is plenty information around on this replacement, also for the Ditton 66.

thanks for the link, i thought about the seas but its more than i want to pay for a replacement id rather wait for a hf 2000, also one of the kind gents over on the wam has donated a hf 1000 for the price of post, ill use that til i can source an original. so what would you say would be a good/reasonable measurement on a used hf2000?.
cheers, mike

If you've blown an HF2000, there are alternative tweeters and 'drop in' diaphragms on eBay.

I saw those a while back, also noticed something technically wrong on his listing, mentioned it, he said that I was right, trouble is I can't remember what it was!

I'm not sure that a HF2000 fitted with the replacement diaphragms would really perform correctly. Also, only one impedance of replacement. I think there are at least two different impedance versions of the HF2000.

I have a duff HF200 that I was thinking of trying this replacement in, but didn't.

yes i saw the diaphragms but i think it might be a bit tricky to fit one, well for me at least. ive seen a couple of the hf 2000 on there go for between 40 and 60, or i might get lucky and find some cheap b+o's that have them in. cheers, mike.
