    If a 3.0 ohm resistor was paralleled with the 6.54 ohm driver you would have 3.13 ohm DC resistance.

    You would barely hear any SDA because the DC resistance of the MW6503 is 6.54 Ohms vs. 3.130 Ohms for the proper MW6511s. Compliance is close and BL slightly more, but not enough to make it work properly and you would barely hear them.

    Interesting, thank you. So the outside ones are the 6511 I think then, right? And you are saying that I should not/never replace those with 6503 if/when the time comes because it wouldn't do much of anything given the ohm load is different and therefore minimal output?

    The 6502 is closer to the 6511, so it could make do in a pinch, but is not a permanent replacement.

    Hi all,
    I just noticed this thread. Are there remaining questions about the levels of the tweeters?

    Hi, so the loudest tweeter T3 is the third tweeter from the top, ie. second tweeter from the floor?

    Yes, T3, third from the top, should be the loudest. If it is not, can you verify T3 is not blown or damaged by swapping it with T4.

    Tweeters T1, T2, and T4 are in series with a resistor, so their levels are attenuated.
