Ebay isn't loading for me right now.. not sure what's up. Anyhow.. If it were me,.. and on a budget, I'd shop around on ebay for just the tweeters for your dxi6500's.. so they are matched for the mid's and crossover properly, for proper tone and to prevent "blowing" as a component set is designed to work together with the power rating/crossover etc.

Example (old ebay link ): https://www.google.com/search?q=car+tweeters&oq=car+tweeters&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.7601j0j8&sourceid=chrome&espv=210&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8#q=polk+dxi6500+tweeters&safe=off&tbm=shop&spd=15813773348144335491

You may could just the component set used and use the tweeters, and have back up mids.. That ebay link had just the tweeters for your set for like $23ish dollars.. can't beat that.

If you are trying to get a better tweeter than what came with the set.. Then that's another matter of course. I'd personally spend a little more and grab a proper component set new (or used in the classified here).. then use those mids in the back , etc.

I'm sure you'll get good help from others. Tweeters can be had for fairly cheap and of great quality,.. now matching them to your dxi's may prove to be a little more difficult,.. $50 will likely buy much better "tweeters" than your mids. But I will say if you find something for say $75 that works well.. Don't let the extra bit of money hold you back.

Good luck!
