In the Thread: RAAL Dipole Ribbon Tweeter
Post Subject: RAAL Dipole Ribbon TweeterPosted by Paul S on: 9/24/2017
One of many issues with dipole speakers is directivity/beaming at HF.  I have been firing multiple paper tweeters at various angles on my OB test mules with varying results.  Here is Alex's idea for a dipole ribbon:

Pretty cool.  I did not look how low it goes because I have never wanted to feature a ribbon sound, only to use it for detail, "air" and ambiance.  I know from experience that the dipole idea can work with paper tweeters, and I have long wished my Audaphon ribbons were dipole.
