Weber Speakers

A very inexpensive way to greatly improve guitar speaker performance.

The Weber Beam Blocker High Frequency Diffuser is a simple device that is installed between the speaker and the baffle. The dome shaped diffuser prevents point-source high frequencies from beaming directly out of the cabinet to create that ice pick sound. Instead, they are diffused evenly in all directions to blend with the lower frequencies that tend to radiate in a wider pattern. The Beam Blocker allows you to make use of speakers that have a tendency to be beamy, harsh, or generally unusable due to their extreme high frequency response. The idea of using a diffuser is not new. Many performers including SRV were known to have applied a patch of duct tape on the grill cloth directly inline with the center of the speaker to block the beaminess. The Beam Blocker performs that same function while diffusing the high frequencies evenly in all directions.

Better than I hoped for-A great product.

| Review By: Robert Miller | 3 months, 1 week ago

1 people out of 1 found this review helpful

Features:

It takes the harshness out of the whole range of what you can hear. Very smooth and rounded out sound. The "ice-pick in your ear treble" is NO MORE. Doesn't mess with your tone settings.         

Quality:

Good construction quality. No defects that I can see. It's made in the USA!!! -- So get out your flags and wave 'em high!

Value:

Where else can you get an item at this price that does as much?

Overall:

I got one for my Ampeg Reverbrocket with a 12" Celestion Vintage speaker. And I'm ordering another for my Fender Superchamp with a 10" speaker. The Superchamp also has a Weber Alnico speaker in it which I'll review later.

Installed in Mesa Nomad. The C90 always had a piercing, nasty highend to my ears. The beam blocker made it sound like a whole new speaker. Got rid of the harshness. Great improvement!

Rattle is a real problem

| Review By: Michael Rowan | 3 months, 3 weeks ago

1 people out of 1 found this review helpful

Features:

The 'idea' is solid and the 'good' reviews bear this out, but in practice 9and carefully following Webers instruction) yielded an unusable product due to the sever buxxing at certain frequencies

Quality:

I'll assume my buzzing issue was related to the fact that the manufacture of the device was defective (mind you I bought 2!)

Value:

Worthless

Overall:

I used the blocker on both a jensen P12Q and Weber 12 in my Fender 57 Deluxe and on A Fender 12 and WSG on my 65 Deluxe ...both amps and blockers resulted in a buxzzing on certain frequency notes .. so distictive I thought it was tube related or circuitry related .. I actually didn't suspect the blockers until I finally determined that that was the last remaining possibility and pulled them out.. first the 57 Deluxe - buzzing gone then the less buzz prone 65 Deluxe and realized these things just were THE source of my issues ... I reinstalled with spacers.. loosened the mounting, tightened the speaker screws, etc and the thing buzzed every time. Finally I held one in front of the amp and heard the cone of the blocker vibrating to the notes in question ... great idea but very poor construction ...weren't even worth sending back, but my questions and complaints went unanswered from Weber ... they still make great speakers and I just bought another set for my Vibrolux, but these blockers are a waste of money ...

A+ on the Beam Blocker

| Review By: YadaYadaYada | 5 months, 15 hours ago

1 people out of 1 found this review helpful

Features:

Simple product. Not really any "features" to discuss.

Quality:

On rare occasion you might get a Beam Blocker with a little rattle on lower notes. But not very often, and when you do get one that rattles it is very, very easily fixed. But Weber needs to look at this issue. DO NOT LET THIS STOP YOU FROM BUYING ONE!!! It is a great product.

Value:

For the small price you pay it makes a HUGE difference. If it were double this price it would still be worth it.

Overall:

The first one I tried was in a Mesa Boogie F-50 combo. Wow! It made a very big difference. It does exactly what it says. For me it eliminates the need for any sort of amp stand and there's no need to tilt your amp to hear it. It really does disperse a much fuller range of frequencies in all directions. I've recommended these to everyone ever since I tried my first one. I just got an Egnater Rebel 30 combo and now I'm going to order a Beam Blocker for it. Try it. You will like it.

Sounds great except for the rattle.

Overall:
It definitely does what it's supposed to. It amkes my Eganter 1x12 cabinets sound so much better from all angles. I would give it 5 stars if it wasn't for the fact that you they produce some kind of rattle/vibration noise when you go low at high volumes. Distorted you can't tell but clean it's very apparent. Everything is secure and the sound wasn't there before. It really makes these unusable.
