tweets too high?

[brafferty]

my friend keeps telling me my tweets are too high for his ears, but mine dont hurt at all, i turned mine up even because i love the extra "push" of sounds components send, anyone else in the same boat? I have a total of 6 tweets in my car, i feel like it surrounds the entire car in clean vocals

wasnt so much a question thread as much as a discussion one i guess, but did i word it wierdly? im high as **** right now

Everyone hears differently,This results in different tastes in their sound system settings. More bass, More highs....etc. Personally, I like a balance of all, Bass, mid's and highs. It's all personal preference. Same reason you really cannot answer the $1,000,000 question that is "always" asked in EVERY forum. That question being, "What's the best"? This is subjective.

There's no best but there is a right and wrong way to do it.

If you tuned all your amps to highest non clipping volume then it should not be hurting.

I personally power my tweets a little lower then my mids to keep those high frequencies lower.

Everyone is different, Some ears are very sensitive to high frequencies, I was like that before, Couldnt stand tweeters at all, anything above 5khz hurted me. Now, I still dont like harsh sounding tweeters but I love clean sounding tweeters. My girl's ears hurt from the tweeters while they do nothing to me. I guess i'm getting deaf/numb to it.

Could be a phase issue. I used to have a problem where if i sat in the driver seat. 1-2khz was extremely peaky, if i sat in the passenger side. It was really smooth. messed with the phases in the tweeters. Fixed it.

You could also have hearing damage. If your playing loud all the time.

6 tweets surrounds you with vocals, interesting since probably 90% of vocals come out of your mids....
