I recently bought the song "Down" from Marian Hill off iTunes, because I think it will sound great with the new Musicar Tweeters. This is the song on the new iPhone 7 wireless ear bud commercial.

The guy dancing in the commercial is incredible. Glad to have the name of that song.

Nick,

Id also be interested in your suggested settings for the Bose with the upgraded tweeters. Or input form a early tweeter recipient.

INSTALLED!!!!

Initial thoughts.

Everything is on point from packaging to fitment to fit and finish!

You get what you pay for on these.

Initial impressions:

Settings:
Bass set to 0, Treble +1, Liner ON, Surround OFF

I have a powered JL 8W3 mounted on my rear deck running through an AudioControl LC2i with a Sub Adjustment ****, on the stock BOSE system, I also did the Burmester Tweeter Upgrade, which was a huge upgrade from the stock Bose Tweeter.

Source: Tidal OFFLINE running their Lossless format.

Content: Acoustic Stone Temple Pilots, The Weekend: Starboy

Coming off the Burmester Tweeter, the DynAudio Tweeter has a much wider image range. The vocals feel more full and wider when compared to the colder, but precise Burmester Tweeter.

Definitely less harsh than the Burmester. Feels more natural and smooth in comparison. I no longer feel like my ears are being attacked by the tweeters at higher volumes. The highs are more pronounced and defined especially at higher volumes.

I really like this incremental upgrade to our Bose System, BUT it really shows the other weaknesses in the stock system, especially in the mids!

The improvement in the details are amazing, especially with vocal acoustic guitar content.

Overall for the cost I have put into my system and keeping a lot of the OEM integration I am very pleased with this upgrade.

Folks will be VERY happy, ESPECIALLY coming off the Bose Stock tweeter.

Thanks @Nick, great product with perfect execution.

They are not an inexpensive upgrade, but there is a lot of value, especially when you take into consideration all the details, execution and care.

Anyone want Burmester Tweeters at a Killer Deal?

Great to hear. Are Your suggested settings with or without the sub? I'd be interested in your thoughts for a stock Bose with just the tweeter upgrade. Also, did you bypass the center speaker?

Curious to learn what Boese owners think about the upgrade once these are installed and flogged.

Lol, well, I will when installed. It isn't going to happen today. Two conference calls scheduled and leaving for a ski trip tomorrow means that I need to get the equipment around and packed in what time is left. Looking forward to changing them out when I get back!

My Report from the field

Source - TOOL Aenima using Tidal lossless

Other - 1 liter tank of medical grade nitrous oxide and a cannula flow
Nasal delivery system.

I found the sound fruity with a hint of butter and vanilla. I was reminded of a forest glade walk with nymphs, or a canyon ride with the lights off on a Ducati. Like old oak scraping across moist skin, or the smell of mahogany and industrial solvent.














Kidding. I haven't done a thing. Soon my friends, very soon

I did not bypass the middle speaker, and my settings are with my sub. I know there was a post somewhere on rennlist that had really good settings for stock BOSE system which helped a lot. You might have to search around for that post.
