RST Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter

Get ready to elevate your audio experience with the RST Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter! This incredible speaker takes your sound system to new heights, delivering dazzling high-frequency sounds that most speakers simply can't match.

Imagine hearing every single detail of your favorite tracks with crystal clarity, creating a breathtaking, immersive soundscape that wraps around you! With this tweeter, your music will come alive like never before, making every listening session an exhilarating adventure!

 This APERION Super Tweeter features a true ribbon design, which uses a 20 μm thick (0.02mm) aluminum ribbon strip.

Game-Changer for Improving Sound Quality

The clarity of this speaker brings a sense of lightness and heightening to the overall mix without any harsh or distorted traits. The impedance of the aluminum ribbon tweeter is almost constant, so it maintains a consistent frequency response curve in the higher frequency band range up to 40 kHz.

True ribbon tweeter designs are able to handle a higher SPL than planar magnetic Super Tweeters. Naturally with the true ribbon design, an electrical current can’t directly touch the ribbon so we employed a transformer that reaches up to 60 kHz, which requires two pieces of exceptionally strong neodymium 2-1/8” (55mm) by 3/8” (10mm) magnets to produce the linear magnetic field. The entire magnetic array, ribbon, and damping materials are enclosed in a heavy-duty steel chamber.

The RST Aluminum ribbon super-tweeters boast excellent physical characteristics, including a wide frequency response, high sensitivity, low distortion, and superior transient response. They not only faithfully reproduce waveforms for simple harmonic signals but also respond rapidly to complex musical signals—particularly percussive and plucked-string instruments rich in transient characteristics. Furthermore, they deliver rich, lively, airy delicate, and smooth overtones, along with superior horizontal directivity.

They serve as a unique enhancement for Hi-Fi systems that suffer from dull timbre, poor high-frequency extension, or insufficient output in the high frequency range, as well as for home theater systems characterized by a dark overall soundstage and weak high-frequency impact.

Overall, this ribbon tweeter design allows for minimal distortion compared to the Planar Magnetic Super Tweeter, and, along with the ribbon's longitudinal shape, the true aluminum ribbon super tweeter creates a delicate and spacious sound field.

Pre-Purchase Information

1. Super tweeters are designed to work alongside your existing speakers; do not connect them directly to your audio source or amplifier.

2. Keep in mind that a super tweeter's output volume is usually low. If a super tweeter sounds excessively loud, it's typically a sign of poor quality.

3. Adding a super tweeter doesn't replace your current tweeter; please do not have that expectation.

4. While a super tweeter can enhance the overall sound experience, it does not guarantee "perfect" high-frequency sound. Instead, it enhances the sense of spaciousness and compensates for the high-frequency limitations of your original speakers, resulting in a better listening experience.

5. Make sure the sensitivity of the super tweeter is higher than that of your existing speakers. For example, if your horn-tweeter speakers have a sensitivity exceeding 100dB, adding a super tweeter with a sensitivity of 90dB or less wouldn't be effective.

6. The key to using super tweeters lies in experimentation and enjoyment. If you're not a serious audiophile or don't have the time to fine-tune settings, please think carefully about your purchase; achieving the best sound for your particular setup requires time and adjustments. And we recommend a minimum of 20~ hours of listening to allow your ears to adjust to the added high frequencies as well as fine tuning the adjustments.

7. Listening experiences are highly personal; it's completely normal for some individuals to notice a difference while others may not. But there's no need to stress—we offer a 30-day in-home trial period. Just ensure the product and packaging remain in good condition during this period, and you can shop with confidence.

We highly recommend researching and getting acquainted with super-tweeters before making a purchase!

Product Features

Take Your Sound to the Next Level

A super-tweeter speaker enhances your speaker system by improving the detail, energy, density, and texture of the high-frequency range. It also broadens the stereo soundstage, providing greater width and depth. This type of speaker is a fantastic addition for those whose audio systems lack vibrancy, clarity in high frequencies, expressiveness, or adequate high-frequency output.

Aperion RST Aluminum Ribbon Tweeter Unit

True Aluminum Ribbon Tweeter

The aluminum ribbon super tweeter (RST) utilizes an ultra-light aluminum ribbon that serves as both the diaphragm and the conductor, generating sound by being driven directly within a magnetic field.

One-to-One Pairing

Each pair of Aperion Super Tweeters have been meticulously tested and carefully matched to ensure optimal performance and consistency. This rigorous process guarantees that every unit meets high standards of quality and sound fidelity, allowing you to enjoy an enhanced audio experience.

Music vs Movies (Aperion Super Tweeter)

HiFi Music & Movis

Super tweeters can be paired with full-range bookshelf speakers, two-way bookshelf speakers, tower speakers, and home theater front or surround speakers; they are not limited to use with Hi-Fi music systems. You can also add super tweeters to a home theater system used for watching movies. Since many modern DVD and Blu-ray recordings capture frequencies well into the tens of thousands of Hertz, adding a super tweeter allows you to fully reproduce the audio effects and achieve the best possible listening experience.

Where_to_place_my_super_tweeter

Where should it be placed?

The optimal placement for a super tweeter speaker is on top of your loudspeaker, though positioning it immediately beside your speaker's tweeter is also an option. The primary goal is to achieve a "point source" effect, where the sound originates from a single, unified location. Additionally, because super tweeters have a faster response time, you may want to position the unit slightly farther back—while still keeping it vertically aligned with the high-frequency drivers—to ensure that the mid-range, bass, and high-frequency signals reach your ears simultaneously.

Also, just play around with the placement

True Ribbon Tweeter Design

Ultra-fast transient response: The lightweight diaphragm enables quick start-and-stop action, allowing precise reproduction of musical detail.

Excellent high-frequency extension: Frequency limits can exceed 40kHz, maintaining a flat response for strong ultra-high-frequency resolution and rich overtones.

Low distortion and natural timbre: The lack of a traditional voice-coil structure reduces breakup and phase distortion, resulting in clear sound with a sense of "air."

Stable impedance: Input impedance closely matches DC resistance and remains constant across frequencies, simplifying crossover design and minimizing phase distortion.

Uniform directivity: The sound source characteristics ensure good off-axis performance and create an expansive soundstage

Matches Your Speakers With The Turn Of A Switch

5-point Crossover + OFF

Choose between 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16 kHz to set the Super Tweeter floor for the perfect blend with your speaker. The "OFF" position renders the Super Tweeter inert. The lowest setting, 8 kHz, will provide the most overlap with your existing tweeter while the highest setting, 16 kHz, will have minimal overlap, picking up at the top-end of the range. The crossover slope is 12 dB/octave.

Treble Adjust Knob

Too much of a good thing? Use the treble adjust to reduce the output of the Super Tweeter. Just flip the switch and adjust to taste, up to -5dB of attenuation.

Pairing the RST Super Tweeters With Your Speakers

Using the Verus V8T's as an example, and it's 91dB Sensitivity, to match this take a look at the chart on the left, where you can see the Crossover and Treble Adjust is set to 8k Hz and -5dB, giving you 91dB output Sensitivity, your other options include 10 kHz and -4dB, 12kHz and -3dB, 14 kHz and -2dB, or 16 kHz and -1dB, though we highly recommend you to try each setting and see what works best for you.

Easy Connection

Aperion Audio Super Tweeters are external devices that connect in parallel to the binding posts of your passive speakers—just ensure that you connect positive to positive and negative to negative. The key is to experiment; avoid listening too closely. Instead, assess the sound quality from your usual listening spot to find which setting delivers the most natural, balanced, and seamless integration. Once you pinpoint the crossover setting that appeals to you the most, you can keep it for long-term use.

FAQs

What's in the box?

Inside the box you will find an owners manual and two Aluminum RST (Ribbon Super Tweeter) Speakers

Can only dogs and cats hear it?

It is well known that the human hearing range is 20 Hz to 20 kHz; in reality, many older adults cannot even hear frequencies above 15 kHz. Since the human ear cannot perceive frequencies exceeding 20 kHz, why is there a need for "super-tweeters" that reach 40 kHz? Consequently, many people online claim that such sounds are audible only to cats and dogs.

This is a common misconception. When we design super-tweeters capable of reaching 40 kHz, the goal is not to enable you to hear 40 kHz itself, but rather to enhance the quality of the sound within the audible range (up to 20 kHz).

To take a simple example, suppose there are two tweeters:
A: Frequency response limit of 20 kHz
B: Frequency response limit of 40 kHz
If both are made to reproduce a 15 kHz sound:

A is already approaching its frequency response limit:
- The diaphragm begins to exhibit breakup (modal vibration)
- Phase distortion increases
- Distortion levels rise

B is operating at only half its capacity, so:
- Its sound is more linear
- Distortion is lower
- Transient response is better

It is akin to comparing two cars: one with an engine capable of 200 km/h and another of 400 km/h. When both are driven at 100 km/h, the latter operates with noticeably greater ease and composure.

Thus, the true value of the Aperion Audio super tweeter lies in:
✅ A higher diaphragm breakup point
✅ A more linear operating range
✅ Lower distortion
✅ Faster transient response
✅ Superior phase characteristics
✅ Greater dynamic headroom

In other words:
The pursuit of a 40 kHz range in Aperion super tweeters is not about extending the upper limit of human hearing; rather, it is about ensuring that music reproduction within the 20 kHz range sounds more authentic, natural, and effortless.

What are the main benefits of adding the Aperion RST Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter Speaker Pair to my audio system?

The Aperion RST Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter enhances your sound system by delivering extended high-frequency response up to 40 kHz, creating a more lifelike, 'airy' soundstage with exceptional clarity, detail, and realism. Adding this super tweeter can reveal subtle nuances in music and audio that standard speakers may miss.

How do I connect the Aperion Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter to my existing speakers?

The Super Tweeter connects directly to the binding posts of your main passive speakers (not the amplifier). It uses a parallel connection, sharing the same signal as your main speaker. You can use bare wire, banana plugs, or spades, and it integrates easily with most bookshelf, tower, center channel, or surround sound speakers.

Which speakers are compatible with the Aperion RST Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter?

This super tweeter is designed to work with most passive speakers that have a sensitivity rating between 85 and 95 dB. It pairs well with bookshelf, tower, center channel, and surround speakers across a range of high fidelity systems. However, it is not intended for use with powered or Bluetooth speakers.

Can I adjust the crossover frequency and treble response on the Aperion Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter?

Yes! The Super Tweeter offers a 5-point crossover knob (8, 10, 12, 14, 16 kHz, or OFF) for seamless integration and blending with your existing speakers. It also features a treble adjust knob allowing attenuation down to -5 dB, so you can finely tune the output for your listening preferences.

What makes the Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter different from standard tweeters or other super tweeters?

Unlike most tweeters capped at 20 kHz, the Aperion Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter extends up to 40 kHz thanks to its ultra-thin (20 μm) true ribbon design and powerful neodymium magnets. This design delivers faster transient response, minimal distortion, and exceptional high-frequency extension, creating an immersive, transparent, and detailed soundstage.

Customer Reviews

Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 103 reviews.

I like what it adds so far to the entire sound - I have very efficient speakers - 94db - I am experimenting with the controls on the back - currently at 10k and 0 db - which I prefer to the other settings at this moment - that could change. It is not an in your face type of change but subtle and pleasant.

Exactly as described by the salesman on the phone. He was very helpful. The sound has elevated my 40-year old JBL 4410s in the subtle —- but significant- extension of treble and cleaning up mid range. The adjustments in crossover and sensitivity were also helpful in matching my room & existing set up Terrific product. Ty

Customer photo review of RST Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter Speaker Pair

Exactly as I hoped. I wanted a supertweeter to provide just a bit more detail and more "air" and imaging to my (already very, very good) Wharfedale Linton speakers. These supertweeters improved imaging (creating a wider soundstage) and added the small amount of additional detail I wanted. They're also attractive and quite flexible, with adjustable attenuation and crossover points. The manual, which maps attenuation and crossover to speaker sensitivity, is very helpful.

Customer video review of RST Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter Speaker Pair

I thought it was best to rate them after a short break-in period… I’m operating them at 12k; their added height and presence to good recorded music is remarkable. My center channel speaker sits low with an upward tilt… placing the Aperion RST tweeter directly forward, on top of it, unleashed a breathtaking presence, totally unexpected… Left, right fronts and surround back channels sits atop of 47” high NHT towers, locks in all the height and airiness anyone could stand… I also think the RST’s enclosures add even more high end to my setup.

I am using my super tweeters with my SVS Surround speakers .. This is a different setup as my front speakers are Klipsch La Scalas paired with a SVS Center .. The super tweeters are pointed almost directly to the listener on top of the surround speakers .. The super tweeters are dialed in at 12KHz and -3dB .. Using an Anthem AVR, SVS subwoofer and Magnetar DVD/CD player ... This combination is outstanding/superb .. I can hear every instrument in the music that I had not heard before .. Fantastic purchase ..

The RST Mk2 Super tweeters added the details my JBL L82s were missing. They create a sense of airiness in the sound stage that was not there before. Percussion especially is richer and more detailed. They are a perfect match for the L82 MK 1 … the buying experience was first rate. Help with selection from Aperion was first rate. Buy with confidence.

I have had the new Aperion aluminium supertweeters for about 10 days. A few days ago, I received my Sound Anchor stands for my Tannoy Legacy Ardens. As good as my system sounded before, it has dramatically improved. More air, better bass, more dimensionality and just more wonderful. I seem to prefer 10Khz for CDs and 12Khz for SACDs. I will be experimenting further with the Aperions, but they are keepers.

RST Aluminum 3-inch Ribbon Super Tweeter Speaker Pair MKII

Customer photo review of Aperion RST Aluminum 3-inch Ribbon Super Tweeter Speaker Pair MKII

How I discovered Aperion? I have had a system I love - musical, etc. (I'm not going to bother you with so popular cliches). I also felt that something was missing in the "presentation" (How I hate these standard descriptions ;-) You music lovers know what I mean. While surfing interned I read about Aperion and their products and I realized that my original Martin Logan CLS were suffocating at higher frequencies in spite of what the specs were saying. So I decided to purchase Aperion RTS Aluminum Super Tweeters. Did they make a difference? - definitely yes, but it wasn't enough. I followed the charts on Aperion's site that stated that for the sensitivity of ML CLS I should set a Treble to -5dB and Crossover to 16 kHz. It still wasn't good. So I started "tweaking" and ended up with Treble at -4dB and Crossover at 12 kHz. And it is perfect (although as someone wise have said "only God is perfect" - personally I have some doubts about it lol) While adjusting RTS Ribbon Tweeters I contacted Collin Lybarger who is a General Manager of Aperion and I was impressed by his knowledge of Aperion's products and by his advice - "experiment and experiment - that's the only way to reach the sound you love, treat our charts as a general guideline and a starting point". These are very humble words of someone who knows the product and doesn't need to brag. Thank you Collin and all of of people who make these small RTS wonders. Cheers, Lucian

Tweeters = Detail Had a great conversation with Colin. We talked about the 2 different aperion tweeters and center channel speakers. I went for the better tweeters based on his recommendation and I'm extremely pleased. Added the detail I had been missing. I'm still trying different centers, but, will probably order one to try out based on my experience so far. .

They are a keeper I had heard mixed reviews about Super Tweeters on Youtube, so I decided to try a pair for myself. My initial thought is that they do bring out the music a bit more and are not extra bright which I was fearing from them. Actually they do not add this over bearing degree of highs to your music, they actually blend right in with my Polk Audio speakers and are a perfect marriage. They are probably not for everyone, just like subwoofers, The good thing is that you can try them for 30 days and decide. I am happy to keep my pair.

They have increased my enjoyment of music using them on my Wharfdale Lintons. The treble is a bit more bright but not too bright. The midrange is more lively and I can hear the individual instruments more distinctly. They were easy to set up with a little experimentation. I was warned about cone filtering but the way I have them placed I am not experiencing that effect.

I wasn't sure what to expect, truth be told, as I am 100% happy with my Venus III Grand Tower Speakers. But after reading and watching reviews I felt obligated to purchase Aluminum Ribbon Super Tweeter Speakers myself. Oh my goodness, if you have experienced having a smile from ear to ear while at the same time having tears in your eyes, these speakers will do that again. The soundstage is amazing, the clarity beyond belief. If you like any kind of percussion these speakers bring that out without taking away from anything else. I highly recommend listening to Trevor Horn's "Ancient & Modern" and your mind will be blown as mine was. I am thrilled to listen and recommend these Super Tweeters. And of course, the Aperion people are fantastic to deal with.

Audiophile Super tweets ,yes. Setting on top of Wharfedale Linton's , being pushed w/ 35 watt all tube Primaluna Prologue Premium integrated. Vinyl only , 2 channel. The Linton's are glorious by themselves, and on some recordings I just switch them off. On a scratchy recording , the ribbon tweets will make the pops stand out , but that is inevitable. My vinyl is always cleaned & cared for , and on a good recording , these Aperion true ribbons add another dimension to your music . Are they too expensive? That's up to you & your wallet. But I believe hearing is believing . I have the Planar Magnetics too. Started my tweeter journey with them , and I would say most people would be happy with them , but I just had to get the true ribbons.
