Product details
Fountek NeoPro10i Ribbon Tweeter
Ribbon tweeters are known for their excellent sound quality, with fast transient response, wide frequency response, and low distortion. The NeoPro 10i is no exception, with a frequency response of 700Hz to 40kHz and a distortion rating of less than 0.5% at 90dB SPL. The NeoPro 10i is also very efficient, meaning that it can produce high sound levels with relatively little power. This makes it a good choice for both home audio and professional applications.
The NeoPro 10i is a relatively large tweeter, so it is important to make sure that there is enough space in your enclosure to accommodate it. It is also important to use a crossover that is specifically designed for ribbon tweeters.
All of this combines to make the Neo X 1.0 an incredible, true ribbon tweeter with a super-wide (and flat) frequency response that extends from 1,200 Hz out to 40,000 Hz, while the wide horizontal off-axis dispersion makes for a larger listening sweet spot. The benign impedance makes the Neo X 1.0 a safe speaker to use with temperamental tube amplifiers. Recommended minimum crossover frequency: 2,500 Hz @ 18 dB/octave.
