Separate woofers may be easier to mount in tight places because tweeter protrusion is not a factor. Separate tweeters allow positioning for optimum imaging. Given adequate power, separates can deliver excellent dynamics and detail. Separates are often a superior speaker design choice for many installations. Ratio A measurement of noise level in a device compared to the level of the signal.
Higher numbers signify a greater difference, which is better.
This ratio is how much absolute noise it produces, compared to the highest signal voltage it can pass without distortion. Dome tweeters in which the dome is composed of a treated soft silk like material. This is a design that is much less susceptible to mechanical deformation, and yet yields a fairly smooth response over the extent of its range. Slew Rate Slew rate measures the ability of a piece of audio equipment to accurately reproduce fast changes in amplitude. Measured in volts per microsecond, this spec is most commonly associated with amplifiers, but can bet applied to most types of equipment.
