rugerdog Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Looking at this dia of HF board for RF-7 tweet,or, is it true that the tweet is out of phase,reversed? Thinking about it,if I have my amp,a single bi-wire speaker cable set,which is Transparent Audio super biwire set,has a network.If this all matters,I believe the cable has certain amount of coductors at amp,then branches out to more conductors after network for bi wire.If the tweets out of phase,How does that effect the system with a single biwire? I mean,example:The + from woofers goes back to amp all the way,but the - from tweet goes goes into same + from woofers???? Actually the more I think about it,only the tweeter would be effected by it being out of phase???I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 That looks like an 18dB slope on the HF, it should measure flat either way it is phased (it either leads in phase by 90°, or lags in phase by 90°, depending on hook-up). It wouldn't hurt to try it both ways and see what you can hear. Just make sure that when you are done that both speakers are in phase with each other.

rugerdog Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Thanks. See I just can't get my mind around it. To bring down the tweeter,as I find too high,I may ,since it's been suggested,and after reading about L-pads,install an L-pad setup(permenant w/2 resistors) at the tweeters - and + wires,just after the HF crossover.But I can't figure or don't know if it makes a diiference about the tweeter being reverse phase,as 1 resistor,with it's spec/value is supposed to go on the + wire and the other resistor with it's value spans accross both - and + wires.

Klipsch Employees Trey Cannon Posted October 27, 2010 Klipsch Employees Share Posted October 27, 2010 Yes, the tweeter is revirse pollirty from the woofer. I will not go into the bi-wire debate. But the last time I checked, electrons didn't care. Bi-amp is a totally differet thing...it can be well worth while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
