[QUOTE="Justintoxicated, post: 947359, member: 561240"] I just installed some Kenwood Excelon Dual Mags 6.5 components. I know Kenwood sucks but I have always liked the sound from these speakers. Anyways I don't know if I toasted the tweeter when I installed or if it was blown. I accidentaly grounded one of the leads with the sterio on low volume but I didn't smell anything or anything like that and it was pretty minor. (Usualy I turn things off but I was finishing and in a hurry to go out on a date. Anyways when I plugged the stuff in I noticed the tweeter had Nothing coming out of it, so I changed it to the other one and it sounds great. So I assume the tweeter is dead. So now what? Buy a whole new set of components? they are the 60p's so they are the older version and not under waranty. Can I just buy some tweeters that are not kenwood or do I need a whole new set of components? When I talked to kenwood they seemed to tell me buy a whole new set which seems stupid. If I do need a new set are the eclipse components good? I'm happy with their and and HU and it would be nice to have everything the same unless you guys think it is a bad idea. Here is a pic to my Passengers door I finished today. Never matted before so I hope this looks correct. I used RAAMAT and ensolite foam. [IMG]http://justintox.servebeer.com:8080//SterioInstall/Foam2.jpg[/IMG] I had to make a custom Bracket for the speaker because the stupid titan comes with some screwy Rattle trap mounts that hold some crapy 2 ohm 6x9's. It was alot of work and I'm hoping I can just use some other kind of tweeter to fix this. [/QUOTE]
