Almost brilliant

Reviewed by vegassubscribe on 07/16/2023

See my other review of the SEAS 1149 for my full setup and application of these tweeters.

Broke in and they started out brilliant, but more I listened I kept hearing distortion in places I wasn't use to. Eventually became clear in my setup these had high distortion with saturated music. Anywhere there was full blown high gain synthesizer, instrumentation, and vocals was too much for these. Tracks like Manchester Orchestra The Silence, Mette Mama's Eyes, Michael Kiwanuka Love and Hate were some of the worst offenders. If you like modern indie/pop, then I can't recommend these tweeters.

I don't listen to punk and don't listen to enough orchestral, dance or edm that I feel comfortable commenting on those.

The Scanspeaks were very good to great with everything else I tried, including vocal, jazz, jazz fusion, folk, guitar, classic rock, country. Really good stuff with those genres. If that's where you stay, then I can recommend these as an option.

That said, for me and my tastes there was no improvement after 48 hours continuous break-in and 100+ hours of use, so wanted to try something else and eventually decided on the SEAS 1149. Bottom line, SEAS have all the good without the bad. I really, really like them.

If Scanspeaks need 500 hours or something ridiculous, then sorry, I didn't get there.

Dunlavy replacement

Reviewed by acl0056 on 09/27/2022

This is the replacement driver for Dunlavy SC-IV, and probably other models in that line. It worked perfectly for my pair when replacing a busted tweeter.

Silver Flute/ Scanspeak MTM

Reviewed by DavoMe245 on 09/25/2021

I have used this tweeter with 2x 4 ohm 5"Silver Flutes, in a MTM set up Sealed Cabinet. this is a restoration of my VAF DC5's(Oz made speakers). This ScanSpeak 2606 matches the Silver flutes quite well. Crossed at 2Khz/LW-R, with 8 ohm + 6 ohm specified components. I did fit a zobel for the flutes, but no l-pad is required in my opinion, on this tweeter. A good sounding Combination at an affordable price !

Nice Tweeter/Nice Price

Reviewed by woplus69 on 05/14/2015

Scan Speaks version of the popular Vifa model certainly seems to be a nice improvement. Used this tweeter in an MTM speaker build with some OOP but like new 7" Vifa woofers. I have to say it was a nice matchup. These tweeters plot flat, are easy to work with and produce well detailed clean sound. They are a very nice improvement over the Vifa model. If your looking for a quality tweeter at a decent price, this is one to consider
