Hello and thanks for reading my post.
For sale is a brand new set of Hiquphon OW3 golden dome tweeters with a custom sized 70mm mounting bezel. The lip is quite small but I had sized them to drop into a car door panel. Based on my own poor calculations, the mounting depth was not sufficient, and so after fitting one to the door panel it became clear to me that it would not fit flush against the doorframe. They promptly went back in the box and have sat there for the past month or so, indoors, in a temperature and climate-controlled environment.
The tweeter that was fitted to the door panel shows a small ring of clear material below the mounting bezel...this is UV-cured acrylic epoxy from Loctite and will come off relatively easily with a little encouragement from a nail pick or something similar that is small and pointy. The sticker on that tweeter was slightly scraped off due to the friction between the housing and the mounting ring on the door panel. This will not affect performance whatsoever. This tweeter was soldered to the leads from the crossover that was also mounted to the door panel, and so you will notice slight discoloration on the terminals where I had soldered it. I was careful not to touch the gun to the surrounding plastic ring, as I suggest you should be, too!
I am looking to sell them for $300 shipped. They were about $400 from Oskar at Hiquphon direct. Anybody who has any experience with Hiquphon tweeters knows that they are of the utmost quality and truly take the finer details of any musical presentation to the next level. I was floored when I received my first pair of OWI's and was lucky enough to have Dennis Murphy (of crossover fame) to graciously design a custom crossover network for them to be installed into my humble little pair of NHT Super Zero's. These little bookshelfers were more resolving and precise than my father's very expensive B&W's, something that I contribute entirely to the combo of appropriate crossover and these amazing tweeters.
I want them to go to a good home, somebody that will appreciate them just as much as I did!
Please get in touch soon!
p.s. I apologize for listing these as full range speakers in the category segment, but there was no choice for just tweeters that i could find!
