RE: Harsh vocals in Magnepan 3.7i

jazzbeat, is it of the Maggie ribbon tweeter that you were speaking (in terms of it and the ET LFT)? I thought you were speaking of the Magneplanar magnetic-planar drivers, which have conductive wires glued onto them. In contrast, the LFT magnetic-planar driver has a conductive film rather than wires. The entire Mylar sheet in the LFT has the film applied as a "vapor deposit", then all of the film except that which is to become the conductors is etched off the Mylar, leaving what resembles the traces on a circuit board. The film is of course lower in moving mass than the wires glued onto the Maggie m-p drivers, and doesn't delaminate (so far!) from the Mylar as do the Maggie wires. And then the LFT-8b has a ribbon tweeter as well.
