[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8791946, member: 591582"] I have mild horns with metal domes in my 3.5” Klispch towers, but it’s 1 milder horn + 3x 5.25’s in each tower. There, the horn works and makes sense and sounds balanced, to my ears. In a car, bigger speakers tend to have lower Fs’s, because more Mms or Mms tends to lead to lower Fs’s, really with just any structure, just in a general sense. Larger cones also make more sound sort of more easily, so bigger diameter tweeters makes a ton of sense to me for softer sound, especially when lower Fs’s can be sometime naturally play flatter. I think horns just need to be used in like non-ear rape fashions. I hate getting into a walled vehicle with a bullet tweeter right next to my face; it just feels like rape, sometimes. It’s like I can feel my cilia cracking with some of these tweeters people put in their cars. Some dudes will have 1 set of bullet tweets and like 8 subs on 10-20kw, and I’m just confused why they want the ear rape. I know enough about hearing, where I may listen to something like that for 2 seconds, but if a horn or bullet tweeter is like 1.5 feet away from my face, I probably will dip out. It’s just too much like nails on chalkboard for me. [/QUOTE]
