APERION AUDIO PST PLANAR-MAGNETIC RIBBON SUPER TWEETER SPEAKER PAIR MKII aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter-gloss-black [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter-gloss-black.jpg?v=1686211191] This Super Tweeter is a planar-magnetic, flat-ribbon tweeter consisting of Kapton film with a pattern of aluminum conductors. The crossover network used non-inductive resistors, and use film semiconductor capacitors. A linear phase response provides time coherent sound reproduction, allowing for an accurate sound stage. What is a Super Tweeter speaker? Put simply, it’s an additional tweeter unit which covers a wide and extended high-frequency response, beyond that of your existing loudspeaker’s integrated tweeters. Many loud speaker systems have poor high frequency performance. A Super Tweeter specializes in ultra-high frequencies and is used in conjunction with a bookshelf or tower speaker. Its purpose is to create a more realistic sound field, often characterized as "airiness," that enhances the listening experience. Super Tweeters are sometimes found in high fidelity speaker systems and home theater systems. They are used to supplement the sound of tweeters by reproducing frequencies which the existing tweeter may produce only with a narrow polar output, or perhaps with distortion. A Super Tweeter speaker provides auxiliary high frequency effect, detail, density and texture that can enhance your existing system’s sound field with width, depth and enhanced timbre.   Aperion Super Tweeter is generally intended to respond well into ultra-high frequencies over 20 kHz, the commonly accepted upper frequency limit of human hearing. Super Tweeters are ideal for taking advantage extended-range audio formats such as vinyl, SACD, FLAC, UHD Bluray and other high-fidelity products.   SPECIFICATION Frequency Response: 8 Khz-40 Khz Impedance: 6 Ohms Sensitivity: 94 dB Crossover Points: 8K, 10K, 12K, 14K, 16K & off Treble Adjust: 0,-1dB,-2dB,-3dB,-4dB,-5dB Crossover Slope: 12 dB/octave Recommended Power: 10-100 Watts Tweeter: APERION Planar-magnetic "Flat Ribbon" Tweeter Product Weight: 1.65 lbs/0.75 Kg per each Product Dimensions: 5.27" x 4" x 5" / 134 x 102 x 127 (HxWxD) Placement Location: Add on top of speakers Shipping Weight: 4.5 lbs/ 2 Kg per pair Shipping Dimensions: 7" x 12" x 8"/180 x 302 x 206mm (LxWxH)   FEATURES Extended High Frequency Flat-Ribbon Tweeter aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter.jpg?v=1686211170] This is not your normal tweeter. While most tweeters max out at around 20K, the APERION® Planar Ribbon Super Tweeter extends another 20,000+ Hertz above that. 5-point Crossover + OFF aperion-super-tweeter-5-point-crossover [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/aperion-super-tweeter-xover-adjust-knob.jpg?v=1686207569] Choose between 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16 kHz to set the Super Tweeter floor for the perfect blend with your speaker. The "OFF" position renders the Super Tweeter inert. The lowest setting, 8 kHz, will provide the most overlap with your existing tweeter while the highest setting, 16 kHz, will have minimal overlap, picking up at the top-end of the range. The crossover slope is 12 dB/octave. Treble Adjust Knob aperion-super-tweeter-treble-adjust-knob [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/aperion-super-tweeter-treble-adjust-knob.jpg?v=1686207515] Too much of a good things? Use the treble adjust to reduce the output of the Super Tweeter. Just flip the switch and adjust to taste, up to -5dB. Easy Connection aperion-planar-super-tweeter-easy-connection [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter-easy-connection.jpg?v=1686211185] The Super Tweeter shares the same binding posts as the speaker you're pairing it with. It feeds off the power your main speaker is already receiving, so no need to connect directly to an amplifier.  Beautifully Curved Cabinet  aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter-cabinet-design [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter-cabinet-design.jpg?v=1686211181] The finishing touch for every Super Tweeter Speaker is a matte black/white or piano-black lacquer that’s so right for every decor, your coffee table will be jealous. 5-Way gold-plated binding posts aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter-bindingpost [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter-bindingpost.jpg?v=1686211175] The 5-way gold-plated binding posts let you connect your speakers any which way you choose: bare wire, banana plugs, spades, round pins or flat pins.   Table, Rectangle, Eyewear, Parallel, Circle, Fashion accessory, Font, Ceiling, Transparent material, Slope [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/Line_4b2db4fa-792c-4f39-8605-6634219ecb7e.jpg?v=1615514455] HOW TO CONNECT SUPER TWEETER how-to-connect-aperion-super-tweeters [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/AST_wSilver_Cable_Composite2.jpg?v=1686203787]how-to-connect-aperion-super-tweeters [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/Howto_Connect_Super_Tweeter.jpg?v=1686203795] The chart below can be used to help match the Planar Ribbon Super Tweeter with your existing speaker`s sensitivity aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter-spl [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/PST_SPL.jpg?v=1686211763] Graph showing the extended frequency response of our Super Tweeter on the 14 kHz and16 kHz settings when paired with a bookshelf speaker: aperion-super-tweeter-high-frequency-improve [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/AST_-_0_14_16_difference_crop_9bcbcfb4-b80e-408b-be50-7e47bcf026e0.jpg?v=1686204086]  aperion-planar-ribbon-super-tweeter-gloss-oak-finish [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/Aperionaudio_Planar_Flat_Ribbon_Super_Tweeter_Speaker_220514-6.jpg?v=1686211165]   KEY FEATURES * APERION High-Fidelity Planar-Magnetic Flat Ribbon Tweeter * Frequency Response up to 40 kHz * 5 Adjustable crossover points + OFF * Up to -5 dB Treble Adjust Knob * 5-way gold-plated binding posts * 3-year Warranty  PACKAGE CONTENTS: * Planar Ribbon Super Tweeter Speakers x Two (2) Pcs * Manual x One (1) Pcs   DOWNLOAD: [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/icon_pdf.png?6760584805568084708] Planar Ribbon Tweeter Manual [https://workdrive.zoho.com/file/4m0uqa9b5c89d72b24cf8b9a7305518cb6a6e] SUPER TWEETER VIDEO SUPER TWEETER SENSITIVITY RANGES: PST Planar Ribbon Super Tweeter: 85-94 dB RST Aluminum Ribbon SuperTweeter [https://www.aperionaudio.com/products/rst-super-tweeter]: 85-96 dB DST AMT Ribbon Super Tweeter [https://www.aperionaudio.com/products/dst-super-tweeter]: 85-96 dB HST AMT Ribbon Super Tweeter [https://www.aperionaudio.com/products/hst-super-tweeter]: 98-103 dB MORE PROFESSIONAL REVIEWS [https://www.aperionaudio.com/blogs/aperion-audio-blog/stay-fresh-aperion-audio-super-tweeter-speaker-reviews?_pos=7&_sid=5ea74ce49&_ss=r] a close-up of several logos [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/PRO_REVIEW.jpg?v=1719216723]https://www.aperionaudio.com/blogs/aperion-audio-blog/stay-fresh-aperion-audio-super-tweeter-speaker-reviews?_pos=7&_sid=5ea74ce49&_ss=r Table, Rectangle, Eyewear, Parallel, Circle, Fashion accessory, Font, Ceiling, Transparent material, Slope [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/Line_4b2db4fa-792c-4f39-8605-6634219ecb7e.jpg?v=1615514455] COMPLETE YOUR SOUND SYSTEM SOLUTION These products work great with Super Tweeter Speakers    Premium Silver Cable [https://www.aperionaudio.com/collections/speaker-wire-cables/products/premium-silver-cable?variant=636581026746774]  [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/Silver_Cable.jpg?v=1686204496]https://www.aperionaudio.com/collections/speaker-wire-cables/products/premium-silver-cable?variant=636581026746774 STS Platform For Super Tweeter Add On Verus Speakers [https://www.aperionaudio.com/collections/stands-wall-mounts/products/super-tweeter-stand?variant=636581026746774]  Sleeve, Rectangle, Automotive exterior, Gadget, Tie, Auto part, Automotive design, Automotive wheel system, Fashion accessory, Paper product [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/9716/2041/files/STS_Pair.jpg?v=1686189355]https://www.aperionaudio.com/collections/stands-wall-mounts/products/super-tweeter-stand?variant=636581026746774   LETS US HELP YOU CHOOSE YOUR NEW APERION GEAR!
