Re: Zobel's attenuation on driver

192.73.8.199

Not so certain about several of your points. Speakers that use ferro fluid could also have their impedance curve "flattened out" also with the use of a Zobel. Also it will make any Lpad affect the output in a more linear way across the frequency range of the tweeter.

Finally the response can be attenuated by the addition of a Zobel but not the same way a Lpad or resistor will. I would site the example in the fifth edition of the LDC as an example of zobel attenuating the upper portion of a SEAs (I think) tweeter. It is in the passive crossover chapter. I can get the page numbers if needed. I also found this to be true at least with the Focal Ti90TiO2 tweeter, but as you mentioned it is not fluid damped.
