RE: Tweeter Wire is better than QR?

Did the QR wire that you used to replace the regular wire have the same resistance? This could have been potentially part of the problem. I would also think that the newer QR speakers have better more powerful magnets in them (this is only a thought not a fact). Which could lead to a much lower output for the same power being applied. I am currently considering using foil instead of wire to rebuild my tympani 1d's (tweeters and mid/bass panels), and I know that the resistance of the foil is less than the resistance of the wires. So I would look into that first before you pull it apart.
