Best cheap Soft Dome Tweeter around 50$?

These are pretty nice Dayton Audio ND20FA-6 3/4" Neodymium Dome Tweeter I've never used them in a car but I have them in my home speakers. Nice and detailed but not too bright.

Love these. Warm and not harsh. Keep up with my 157db substage

These are nice too https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/horn-tweeters/vifa-bc25sc06-04-1-textile-dome-tweeter/

I used these in a previous build and was pretty impressed. They will get very loud and stay pretty clean doing it. I preferred these to the XT25 which I had used in the same build.

Were the XT25's installed on axis?

No they were probably about 40 degrees off axis, factory location. That is most likely why I wasn't super impressed by them.

That would make a difference in how they sound. Same as with my Scan R3004's, ring radiator tweeters need to be on axis to get the best out of them. I actually have a pair of XT25's as backups.

In my next install I will definitely use the XT25's, as well as the Vifa TC9 midrange drivers. Brand new that set up only costs $70, but you get a lot of performance out of it, especially considering the price. Midbass will be another inexpensive driver. I want to see how good I can make an inexpensive setup sound. These are not "cheap" drivers by any means, just inexpensive.
