Tweeter Vifa D26NC Review

I am still using the OEM speakers that come with the car. This OEM speaker sound so narrow and emphasis only at the bass. This speaker location is at the door panel and the sound from it is just like coming from the bellow of the dashboard.

That is why I want to add the new tweeter above the door panel. This tweeter will makes the sound more fuller by adding the high frequency which the OEM speaker cannot do. So here it is, the tweeter unit that using Vifa D26NC driver.


The OEM full-range speakers sound okay for bass and mid, but lots of peaks and rolled off on high frequency. This is the common problem for most cheap OEM speakers that will sound like this. That is why, I am thinking for adding this tweeter unit to extend the high frequency.


 

When this unit arrived, oh no, they are messy and dirty. The cables are not properly soldered and the glue are not properly attached. This is not even showing the proper work, but okay, I am fine with that. I will correct it by myself.

If I could suggest to the seller, they better selling this unit as a kit rather a finished product like this.


The cross-over network from this unit is a simple one capacitor per channel. It using 4.7uF Bennic capacitor per channel.

To make it the 2nd order cross over, I added another 0.33 mH inductor after the capacitor like in the photo bellow.


I think this is all I can share about this tweeter.

Please find the installation process on the few next post.

OPA1622 Vs. OPA627 High Performance Op-amps Comparison

This op-amps comparison topic is actually boring, but at the same time, many of us still curious about what others think about it. The reason is simply because of the op-amps variation are hundreds and they are depends by the implementation. The op-amps are considerably cheap and an interchangeable electronic components but they are not built for the same function. So in this discussion, I will focus on the modern Vs. vintage high performance op-amps in the simple non-inverting pre-amplifier gain stage.

Vintage Multibit R2R DAC Tier List

At the very beginning of this year, I committed to explore the best multi-bit R2R DAC. This is simply because I have plenty of the resources (from broken old unit CD player of course) and ability to build them up. If you think this kind a recycle from old un-used unit to become something useful, than I should stated myself giving contribute for greener world:) After all DAC that I built in this year, I think it is better for me to list them up again in one single page like this. Then I will rank them up in a simple tier list. The reason for this, so you all know what my opinion about of those vintage multibit R2R DAC especially in the sound quality.

PCM56 R2R Non Oversampling DAC Built

From early this year, I am start to playing a lot with the multibit DAC. They are from Sony CDP TDA1541A here , Nakamichi DAC-101 dual TDA1541S1 here , Clarion DRX-9255EXL PCM1702 here  and Clarion HX-D1 PCM1704 here . What I said playing with them is actually more suitable words because none of them are built by myself. I only study and exploring those unit then make some upgrade especially on the power supply components, signal capacitors upgrade, and bypassing the unused internal circuit for more clearer yet natural sound quality. This upgrade make a lot improvement compare to the first time I listen from it and I can really enjoy what the designer from each manufacture deliver the sound they would like to perform in those units. Those said units are categorized as a parts of hi-end audio system and I really now familiar with the sound signature from each of them. But to be honest, I am not satisfy yet with this condition. Because none of them is built by myself from ground up. ...
