    Default Super Tweeter

    I was wonder what the effect of adding a super tweeter to Sierra 1's (usually placed on top of the speaker)? Is it worth it or is it mostly hype?

    Typical hearing tops out at 20khz....and lower as you get older. A CD's response also tops out at 20khz(or is it 22khz?), where as SACD's and DVD-A's can go as high as 40khz+...if the recording equipment/mixer used are able to capture and handle it. Of course, then you would need playback electronics that could handle that FR as well.

    If a super tweeter can make any difference at all, it would be very difficult for us to perceive. If fact, I would think that moving a piece of furniture in your room would make more of a perceptible difference.
