I have a general RBH question.
I see a lot of speaker companies now using ribbon tweeters. Monitor Audio, Ascend, Philharmonics, Behringer, level 3, Golden Ear, etc.
I have heard a few of them, and they sound pretty good.
- Has RBH experimented, or brought out any speakers that use ribbon tweeters?
It would seem like a good idea. They already have great sounding speakers with silk dome tweeters. If a customer wanted the ribbon tweeter sound instead, having an available product might make good business sense.
One of my friends who does custom installs (MA dealer and a few others), dissed RBH saying they are not keeping up with the times, and they have fallen behind. He knows of 5 dealers that moved away from RBH. I have only heard the RBH 661, and MC-6C's so I couldn't speak to their high end product lines, or have directly compared them to any ribbon speakers. Nor am I in the industry where I have access to do side by side comparisons.
I have read some of the differences between ribbon and soft dome. There are plenty of forum threads and comparisons out there between the two.
Just my thoughts and question. I am not putting down RBH.
