Seas Diamond Dome Tweeters

Post by Saxman »

All,
I have a pair of ART 8.3 Alnico signature speakers. A few weeks ago Derek Dunlop of Art in Scotland let me know f some diamond dome tweeters whch Seas of Norway had just produced. These are not cheap that is all I will say at this point.
Reviews on these tweeters were stunning to say the least and n Derek's mind they were total game changers in the listening experience.
Being retired and having worked all my life I decided to take the plunge and treat myself. Derek and his brother Ramsey flew over from Scotland and installs the tweeters , it also required modifications to the crossover units which they done.Derek and Ramsey own Art who also make turntables ,they are great pair of guys who will bend over backwards to help.
The work as done in about four hours.
Switched the amps on ,they are valve and let them warm up.
Put on the Graceland LP I didn't know what to expect.Within seconds I was totally taken aback at the sound.
I could go about soundstage, balance ,harmonics etc I won't the whole dynamics across the music had changed and I would not have believed it without hearing it.
They are certainly no side step that is for sure they are a paradigm shift upwards by a huge amount and I would suggest the biggest upgrade anyone can make to a sound system.
We then tried various Lps by different artists across a wide music spectrum and everything played sounded fantastic.
These tweeters have to be heard to be believed as I said they are not cheap but in my mind they are worth every cent.
I am happy to share this experience with any ne who wants to hear them you may contact me on 0852708514
Happy listening
