c4 audio Posted January 30, 2024 Posted January 30, 2024 Hi there. I'm a big fan of Richter Speakers and have been collecting some but have run into a problem. I can't find a tweeter that has blown. I'd love it if someone out there could help. I'll leave a pic. Never seen anything like it. Any help would be great.
Darryl Posted January 31, 2024 Posted January 31, 2024 That's an odd one isn't it. If you can remove the tweeter and take a photo of the back of it it might help with identification.
c4 audio Posted January 31, 2024 Author Posted January 31, 2024 I did but there isn't a mark on them.
muon* Posted January 31, 2024 Posted January 31, 2024 (edited) Looks like one of the IV series Contact Richter. https://richter.com.au/ Edited January 31, 2024 by muon* 2
c4 audio Posted January 31, 2024 Author Posted January 31, 2024 Yeah it is the IV series RICHTER Merlin Legend IV
xlr8or Posted January 31, 2024 Posted January 31, 2024 I think it's sourced from Legacy Audio in the US. It appears to be identical to the older style 1" neo spiral ribbon tweeter used on the expression and phantom series. Try contacting Legacy Audio in the US or Pymble Hifi in AU to see if you can source one. http://everythingaudionetwork.blogspot.com/2014/10/ean-audiophile-review-legacy-expression.html https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/162935987332 1 1
Stunkat Posted February 1, 2024 Posted February 1, 2024 1st post on the forum, be gentle.... I just encountered the same issue with the Wizard IV and contacted Richter via their support email who replied "Yes we have an upgrade availble for the MK4 ribbon tweeter and require you to send us your faulty tweeter so we can rebuild it to the MK4.5 version, the cost is $89 please return postage." 1 1
c4 audio Posted February 1, 2024 Author Posted February 1, 2024 Hi there. That's wonderfull news. After speaking to a tech this morning that told me not to bother contacting Richter as they wouldn't help me.. so I'm very glad you informed me of this. Yay I can get these beasties going again. Thank you everyone for your help.
