What is a Cone tweeter?

Cone Tweeters

Over time, as recording and playback equipment grew more sophisticated, speakers were needed that played ever higher sound frequencies. Cone tweeters evolved to fit this need. About two to three inches in diameter, they were basically just scaled down versions of modern, larger paper cone drivers. Although compact, these tweeters lacked the high frequency dispersion of other designs (such as dome tweeters).
