  • Notes
  • "The latest version of the highly regarded twin cone 5FX tweeter is used in the Mini-fi system. Improvements in voice coil design and throat felting and pressing have upgraded the performance to provide a smooth response from cross-over to 19,000 Hz ± 6 dB. A simple protective capacitor isolates the bass frequencies from the 5FX and in practical terms is highly preferable to the use of complex multi-element reactive networks at the cross-over point."
