[QUOTE="thylantyr, post: 1250842, member: 560358"] When you see a tweeter spec, not chart, that says 2000hz - 20khz frequency range, that really doesn't tell you much. You don't know how it behaves betweeen 2000hz and 20,000 Hz. What if it has a steep roll off at 12khz? You'd never know by that spec. You can look at the 2000Hz number and say "hmmm, perhaps it might work that low ? let me try it". If you need a tweeter that plays low, down to 2000Hz and you find one that says "5Khz - 20Khz", then it might be safe to say it won't do it well. Same applies to midranges. For woofers it's crazier. A subwoofer may have a 20hz - 1000Hz spec, but it most likely will only perform well from 80Hz on down. Above that it probably sounds like azz for many reasons. [/QUOTE]
