there are some selenium supertweets in the classifieds.

but not a bad choice at all.

thats why im wanting to go with this setup itd be cheaper and probably sound louder than most of the component sets out there. whats different though? i know that selenium woofer starts to screammm up high when it goes over rated power.

those same tweets are being sold in the classifieds, for less $$ shipped brand new.

good choices, should get really loud with the right power

Hope you have a powerful EQ on hand.

thats the reason i bring this up cause i dont know what i would run for a crossover and im sure those tweets scream at low power so i would need some sort or balance. ie, a eq.

Good if you want absolutely no accuracy, but tons of volume.

 

[dye4metal 10+ year member]

whats wrong with the accuracy. and i do prefer volume.

ive got 16 of the selenium 6" mids.

they're loud, and sound **** good for the price they cost..once i seal up my door panels, i think the bass response on them will improve greatly as well.

my pioneer 880 16 band EQ works fine with my selenium mids
