Description

Overview

The High Fidelity H1 tweeter is a high stroke, low distortion multilayer fabric dome 25mm tweeter.  This tweeter features exceptionally high stroke to allow lower crossover points without compression.

The H1 tweeter features a split-gap design which provides ±1.4mm of linear excursion, approximately 5 to 6 times that of most other tweeters. The result is a wider operational bandwidth – as low as 1500 Hz – and distortion reduced by up to a factor of 4.

The H1 uses a specially developed dome material.  The dome’s fabric is a lamination of silk, polyester, and cotton and treated with a proprietary compound to unify the layers but allow each to provide their own unique benefits.  Silk adds the stretch/pull basic mechanical strength; polyester provides rigidity of shape; cotton provides improved damping.

The H1 does not use a rear chamber to lower its resonance; instead, a larger roll surround provides a lower resonance of the driver.  This design allows for higher stroke as well, for full-range output down to 1500 Hz.  And by removing the rear chamber, resonances from that chamber are eliminated. The elimination of the rear chamber results in an 11.2mm (7/16”) mounting depth for freedom of positioning.

The H1 comes with an integrated chemically etched steel grille featuring an anti-resonant hole-pattern with size of opening optimized for dispersion.

The H1 features a threaded rear body and a large diameter ABS nut for securing it to panels up to 3/8″ (9.5mm) thick. Also included is a 45 degree surface cup and metal bridge mount to accommodate every type of installation scenario.
