modeled estimate

These tweeters could pair with the Visaton PL8RV-4 in a two-way design, but the seed Thiele/Small data is too thin to grade the match yet — add or measure T/S (Fs, Sd, Xmax) to compute a real compatibility grade. You can still open a pair in the guided builder.

Modeled estimate from T/S + geometry — no measurements. The verdict is robust; it improves with measured FRD/ZMA data.
