Sonus Faber Concertino tweeter replacement

Brice · 2022-03-07T22:24:41+00:00

Hi guys, My first post on the speakers forum. I wanted to share my experience in replacing the tweeters in the little Sonus Faber Concertino. I bought this pair for my son, for his first audio system, to be matched with a little EL84 Acrosound tube amplifier, and a fed with the excellent RME ADI-2 DAC FS from his computer. As to be expected, I could hear a problem in the highs in one of the speakers. Long story short, the tweeters on these were Frankenstein tweeters, with parts of peerless, quite expensive ScanSpeak dome, and the SF plate. After many back and forth pictures with Madisound Speakers (Adam), who was very helpful in assisting me and understanding what was going on, we finally decided that I ship them one of my SF tweeter plate to find a suitable replacement. Adam did find the perfect one, a ScanSpeak D2604/830000. Same original brand SF uses. Got them today, they fit perfectly, and sound super nice. I am very happy about it. Here is some pics and I hope it will help someone with similar speaker problem than I had. Brice.
