Go for some silk domes, you can also attenuate the tweeters to bring them down a notch.

Have you tried to EQ them back? I run Crystals in the GF's car and the titanium tweets were far too bright IMO, but cutting them back to -6 did the trick.

I'd try tuning before replacing them....

You can try an inline non-inductive resistor of probably around 2-5 ohms wired after the high pass crossover output to attenuate the tweeters. This is a cheap and simple solution that may just do the trick.

x2 on the tuning. If you are set on different tweets, The C Mass tweets are silk over Titanium and are very nice.

thanks for the few responses..

yes i have done some tuning to them but still doesnt sound like i guess i "want."

It's not a huge deal, just wanted to see some of your suggestions.

If I were wanting to replace them are there any solid possible choices for a decent price.. remember young on a budget : )
