TBI HDSS Tweeter Review

[ngsm13 5,000+ posts]

I thought nG knew how to get a good image?

Well, I do... but I'm being very difficult in my requirements for this next setup...

I like my music loud, and I like it to sound good. I'm a basshead at heart...

My substage will be a pair of 15's ported tuned low, and ~4000rms. I like to be able to demo for bassrace/streetbeat at shows... but when I'm driving around by myself I like it to sound good, therefore my substage is almost all the way down daily driving...

With that being said, I've been looking for input on a front stage to keep up with my substage.. I don't like the idea of multiple tweeters per door right next to eachother... and I don't like the idea of pro-audio drivers either.

I have four dayton RS180's... and was thinking of doing dual mids per door in a 2way setup (with my Alpine 9835)... not sure if a single tweeter per side will keep up... that's when I tought about the centerstage thing...

I was thinking about quit being a VAJ and go 3way front stage like 8's, 4's, and a tweeter... but I like the use of my sub-out on the alpine for my subs //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif... though I could utilize a bass knob for subs if I want to use the 9835 for 3way front stage.

Anyways... that's all I have to say about that...

After I listen to Megalos on Saturday, I may be buying a set as well. DIYMA price is hard to beat

front preout - Highs and midrange, mounted closely to each other in the kicks, split by a passive xover or an external xover.

rear preout - Midbass in doors

sub - sub

OR

get an h701 and do what the hell you want w/ that VAJ

I would suggest trying to fit a 7-8" midrange, and 8"+ midbass //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

and a pair of these TBI tweets to stay on topic //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Lol, yeah I'd like to do 10" in the door... 7" in the kick... and a tweeter per side.

That would be my top choice //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Nice well written review!

I wish I could pick up a set for the 100 bucks, but nope, I am strapped!
