[QUOTE="MiniVanMan, post: 2796570, member: 573252"] Good find, and it is a testament to the quality of the L15. The same can be true of the CA15. The roll off happens higher (closer to 3k) and has no breakup. The driver can roll of naturally with no crossover work. The CA18 works in the same way, and that's why it's such an easy driver to work with. The L15 is designed to be as simple as an aluminum cone driver can be, but with it comes compromises, and that compromise is top end extension. As you can see, we're having a hell of time finding the right tweeter for this baby. I can think of a lot of tweeters than will mate up with it frequencywise, but only the Seas Neo in any kind of budget range. All others come in the $100+ range per tweeter. You might want to call Rick, of Raammat. He is a fantastic guy, and extremely knowledgeable. In fact, though I'm not sure anymore, he gives discounts to DIYMobileAudio members. He may do that on all sites, though. His product is top notch, as well as his customer service. You being in Dallas, you are prone to issues with heat. Peal and Seal will perform better in a Dallas summer than it does in a Chicago winter, but it can still fail in extreme heat. Peal and Seal is fine for a lot of situations, but I mostly recommend it only in a pinch. I used some Peal and Seal in my wife's vehicle and it failed. The SecondSkin I had in there is still going strong, though. Oh, and don't forget the ensolite. That stuff rocks when implemented correctly. Don't be afraid to call Rick. He's a very nice guy, and he likes to make time for his customers. If you would rather PM him, he can be found on [URL="http://www.diymobileaudio.com"]http://www.diymobileaudio.com[/URL] (where I spend most of my time). He's under the name Raamaudio. He's not a bad guy to bounce ideas off of either. He's got a ton of install experience. [/QUOTE]
