jimjimbo Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Came out of a pair of Heresy II's. One reads 16.9, the other 11.8. I have not listened to them. Is this going to present a problem? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djk Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 The 16.9 draws 1.6dB less power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 The 16.9 draws 1.6dB less power. OK, that's great (I think), but will there be an issue with them playing together? That's what I was looking for. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeFord Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 IF the DCR is measured correctly, no they will not work well together or with the squawker and tweeter. Measure again carefully, maybe wiggle the woofer cone a little to see if the measurement changes. Check all the numbers and letters on the two drivers, and maybe the crossovers.

Measure again carefully, maybe wiggle the woofer cone a little to see if the measurement changes. Check all the numbers and letters on the two drivers, and maybe the crossovers. Well, yes, it has been measured correctly. Secondly, it is the mid driver, not the woofer Thirdly, I don't think "wiggling" the woofer cone will affect it, since, yes, it is the mid.... And lastly, it's not connected to the crossovers. Any other advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe apply some torque to the body to see if the measurement changes. The point of checking all the numbers and crossovers is to see if the speakers have been modified in some way. Nothing shows up, replace the diaphragms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
