Well, the Vifa is often recommended as an upgrade for the T27, so I
really wouldn't be too fussed about the impedance difference. Just be
prepared for it to be a bit on the loud side, though - you may need a
series resistor yet.



That I don't get - a higher impedance will result in a *louder* sound...??


Sorry - got the which and the what back to front. Softer - so you
probably won't need those resistors.




OK. Just finished (I'm knackered!) and here is the lineup now:

Rob's tweeters are in the Sabres (top) which now have their own woofers back
in and their own crossovers. They have been fully carpetted, the (larger)
T27 tweeters have been let in and new 'lambswool' stuffing put in.

The Meraks (bottom) now have Rob's woofers, their own tweeters and their own
crossovers (untouched) with no other work done other than 'easing' one of
the holes for a 'tight woofer'....

I've literally only just got in and have heard maybe 5 minutes of A/B'ing of
both of them and I think they both sound very good - different, but still
good. If you are about Don, nominate a track I'm bound to have and I'll grab
a snatch from each of them for a 'comparison' (as far as is possible) -
otherwise, it'll be a Milladoiro track!!
