A bit more than a £10 experiment Andre!

**Rare Bird** · 19-02-2010, 21:04

Can be more than £10 can be more than £10 if you don't know what your doing

The ones at £299 on eBay seem to be pretty cheap for those particular units, but I don't have that sorta cash to chuck about at the mo... Hense my interest in spending a tenner!

Hamish,
I'd love to help, mate but I don't think I'm qualified!
I'm sure someone else has the requisite knowledge - guys?

I have posted this before somewhere but here goes, the tweeters as you know are avialable from Maplins but instead of farting about with resisters just buy a pairs of "L Pads" from

You can then wire these and adjust the volume or rolloff point to your hearts content, you will just have to make up some sort of box's to house it all in, this is where i used them

If i had the spare change i would buy a pair of the Townshend ribbon supertweeters as these are better than the Tannoys or so i have been told by more than one dealer
