Seas DXT 27TBCD / GB sound pressure & impedance (dispersion) |
Very broadband and symmetrical superelevation from 800Hz to 10kHz, which can be easily equalized with the crossover. This is due to the waveguide and already a first indication of its effectiveness.
The efficiency reaches broadband 95dB but then drops down to 88dB in super high. In the case of linear tuning, therefore, no more than the named 88dB / 2,83V / m are achieved. The impedance response is interference-free and shows a slightly asymmetrical "resonance hill" around 900Hz. More often seen in tweeters with coupling volume. |

Seas DXT 27TBCD / GB Sound pressure at angles (15 °, 30 °, 45 °, 60 °) |
Extremely even directivity into the super high tone. In large parts near the so-called constant directivity Behavior. | ||||||||||||
Seas DXT 27TBCD / GB Decay behavior |
Even and fast decay over all frequencies. | ||||||||||||
Seas DXT 27TBCD / GB level linearity 85, 90, 95 and 100dBFrequency response level corrected, based on the 85dB measurement
|
Even and low dynamic compression from 100dB / m <= 0,5dB (Please note the scaling => 20dB range) | ||||||||||||
Seas DXT 27TBCD / GB harmonic distortion |
Extremely low harmonic distortion even at 100dB. K2 increases evenly with the level and remains below the 100% mark until 2dB starting at 1kHz.
K3 increasing below 2,5kHz, above that at the measurability limit. |

Conclusion Nowadays the straightening behavior of loudspeakers is getting more and more important. The Seas DXT stands out in this discipline from the competition. No other known tweeter of this size shows as uniform straightening as the Seas DXT. However, a careful baffle design is required to maintain this behavior. In "normal widths" baffles (~ 20cm) for example. the Seas DXT tends to widen significantly at angles around 3kHz. Work very well:

Very interesting. I'm a bit surprised that the irregularities of the waveguide caused by the four screwholes and screwheads (apparently) have negligible negative influences, or is that logical considering the small dimensions of these holes and screwheads?
Kind regards.
