[QUOTE="CertifiedHoodClassic, post: 8887858, member: 685714"] Jokes aside - the speaker you're asking for doesn't exist. Playing lower hurts sensitivity (increased xmax hurts sensitivity), increasing power handling also tends to hurt sensitivity (because the moving parts are heavier), and your current 112 db sensitivity speaker is already high. So there's something else that's the problem if it isn't loud enough. Instead of trying to get a tweeter that plays lower, look at the rest of setup. You can get much better output from a speaker by having it play in a range it is comfortable in, and that doesn't just mean looking for speakers that play lower. It means letting your other speakers play higher. Being smarter about your crossover points. And if you want to have the loudest treble on Earth (which it seems you do lmao), I'd recommend adding a midrange to make the treble setup 3 way. Then you can get super sensitive bullet tweets which can't play below 3-5kHz and the dedicated mid speaker will pick up below that. And the last step if you still haven't destroyed your hearing forever - add more speakers... deadass, nothing stops you from add 2 more tweeters if one wasn't enough 😂 [/QUOTE]
