BlieSMa T25A-6, T25B-6, T25D-6, T25S-6 - a comparison of dome materials

I thought this was a really neat writeup about some high-end tweeters. For me, the most interesting part was how silk performed.

T25A-6 = Aluminium + magnesium

T25B-6 = beryllium

T25D-6 = diamond

T25S-6 = silk

Thanks, hificompass!!!

What real conclusion can really be made, though? I'd say that soft domes are "obsolete" and beryllium is indeed as good as marketed. Aluminium seems good enough to my eyes (and ears).

"we are atoms that appreciate atoms" ...

I was just surprised to see how well diamond performed and how silk moves in and out of the performance of all of the materials.

Seeing this makes me think I need to hear a few domes before I make my 1st speaker (if i do at all).

The ringing of the aluminium was a another one that I did not expect to see so clearly.
