[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8654983, member: 675210"] I blew some tweeters a long time ago by playing a 20hz - 20,000hz sine sweep. A guy gave me his bank card before he went out to sea (Naval Submariner) and said put in a system you think will rock. So I did. I remember it was an extended cab ford ranger. I put in two kicker comp 10's, two red Sony Mobile ES amps and components in the doors. All I remember is the components had plastic dome tweeters. I want to say the were Clarion speakers. Not 10 minutes after the install I played the sine sweep... crossed over the 10k area on its way up to 20k and I remember saying wow, these don't sound... then I saw smoke coming from the passenger tweeter. It melted around 16-18k hz. Replaced with silk domes, no future issues. [/QUOTE]
