STOP BUYING CRAP! 12 Mid Weight Tweeters BEST SELLERS Sound test and Over Look

[@Tampo-tiger]

This is just about the best recreational 17.45 mins you will spend in your life. I honestly believe your music entertainment is paramount for good mental health, and this selection of a new set of tweeters is vital to your audio enjoyment. Thank you SO much Mike!

[@LIFEINSPEED]

Haha I do all my work just to read this kind of comments 😎😎👍

[@418lightning8]

Really appreciate you doing all our homework for us it's just too expensive to test all these just to find what we like you earn a sub for it

[@demetriusowenssr.7108]

418 lightning agreed. DS18 or PRV for the win

[@Hayawasa]

I'm sorry you have so many dumbshits in the comments trying to put you down for testing the best selling tweets on the car audio market. I think you did a great comparison because most people that are building a system are looking at the same ones u tested. I have the skar 3.5 titanium and the skar aluminum domes as well. Now I want to buy those pioneers because of this video. Much cleaner. Thanks bud.

[@austinporter4285]

Very late comment but i found myself going back to thr skars almost over everything lately. Obviously ny morel supremo's stay but MAN... If you want a good snare "smack" and super loud yet surprisingly controlled highs, its REALLY hard to beat skar flr the price. With that said i hate them for what misinformed people love them for... BASS... or should i say "lack thereof"... ive tried every sub they had out at augudt 15th (havent heard anything new if they have snything new) but i just dont understand how they havent at least ACCIDENTALLY made a subwoofer thats not only capable of a comp but also have drivers that dont just suck... like in EVERY way. You can use good materials and still make a bad product and im not even that big into bass but thats not what i call their subs. With that said i did get a box from them for subwr cheap si ply because it was the EXACT cubic footing down to (-.02). I need to try their conpression drivers with some horns too cause they have quite a few options for CHEAP.

[@Hayawasa]

@austinporter4285 the skars arent bad , i liked them as well. But my search for the loudest and clearest ended with orion hcca . I stopped using bullets and compression tweeters about a year ago because everytime i listened to my stereo my ears would ring for a couple hours . So i went back with what i started using , peerless xt25 ring radiators. They are nowhere near as loud but it isnt worth getting tinnitus just to be heard from a long distance.

[@A6Legit]

You are doing the lords work man. Not many places you can see tests of so many different models of speakers etc. Plus you can give feedback listening to them all at the same time in person. Valuable information.

[@Tampo-tiger]

It's a truly fantastic help, so important to the listening enjoyment of so many people. Bad tweeters - or a HF you just find uncomfortable - is a real pain. This is precisely what we all need to improve our hi-fi. Thank you so much dear sir.

[@Mr.JU82]

The orion and the prv were the most crisp to me . The red n black tweeter and the one to the left of the small pioneer tweeter sounded nice as well. Thanks for the video, you just saved me alot of time. I subbed.

[@myturkishlife1777]

Love the smaller pioneer .. Thanks for taking time out to do this 👍

[@PelleTampio]

Extremely taxing for your ears to listen from start to finish at one go but still could pick up the massive clarity difference when we got to the first pioneer. Others had very minor differences between. Well done, thank you.

[@davidcarney1919]

I really like that Pyle!

[@allwayzactive4599]

@@davidcarney1919 using them there good

[@kohnfutner9637]

It would help if you were playing them with a mid so we can tell how it blends. My ears aren't trained to listen to tweeters this way. They all hurt my ears.

[@damoo9336]

No ones ears are trained to listen to tweeters this way; the designers certainly didn't intend it. It would be interesting to test these tweeters properly and see if they rate differently.

[@kohnfutner9637]

@@damoo9336 😄 glad it wasn't just me thinking that. I guess the reviewer may considered crossover issues but I would advise getting a cheap speaker like micca popping out the tweeter and try these replacements.

[@lautaro736]

Listen to the higher fs, with some you can hear more details and higher tones

[@peterrabbitwarren]

My favourite was the small Pioneer and the small one on the left of it.

[@hugueslecorre4893]

Skar VX200 6th from left, is a Chinese brandless tweeter that anyone can stick its brand on. In Thailand It is sold for $6 a piece but I bought nonbranded a pair for the same price. This tweeter can be easily dismantled and I filled the back chamber of the ring diaphragm with cotton. It got rid of 3khz resonance shouting and damped the ring. Once equalized, it became a fabulous 8 ohm 90db HIFI tweeter.

[@Neepulainen13]

@@hugueslecorre4893 I did this mod yesterday for this same tweeter. I was supprised how much I got clarity. I put double sided tape over the magnetismi pole and outside of the gap. As little of cotton that so it doesnt touch the titanium. Home audio use. cut out 5khz -18db

[@erhickf]

To compare tweeters you need music at high frequency (violin or voice instead of a drum).

[@par77as]

I love your work man. Thanks

[@engchoontan8483]

Try silk-dome but paper-cone (need "belt"-clothes hemming-tape to join the two disaggreeing materials. Due to the performance of paper, the diaphragm should be bigger than most other cone materials (sillicone for punch, rubber for bass reverb, aramid and kevlar for thick skin, ...) Test 6 inch for paper-cone tweeters to smoothen and air the sound ( check dispersion angles)

The question would be how to mount those in a stock application.

[@rmblwgn]

you almost always have to surface mount. Cut hole in door panel with a hole saw and use supplied ring to tighten it down to panel

[@davidperry4013]

You will have to drill holes or make custom door panels which may or may not be worth it to you. However, I highly recommend opting for aluminum dome tweeters instead if you like the bright sound that bullet tweeters have but, do not want to go deaf.

Very nice. Appreciate the help. Only running a Orion 750.4 with a birth rms of 205watts/channel at 2 ohms which will still run both front and rear component sets very well.

[@drummerdoingstuff5020]

Birth rms? Never heard that before. 205 RMS even at 2 ohms is loud

[@BigSteve_Gaming187]

@Drummer Beat Off Since b4 I was aware of it at the beginning of the 2000s Orion tests each amplifier b4 sending it off. They call it that which is genius and helpful because no amp is exactly the same, necessarily. So if you check out unboxing videos of Orion Amplifiers they typically show the sheet rite when they open it. Id check out Big D's channel "Williston Audio Labs". I store my sheet next to my birth certificate as well. LOL

[@codilankford6173]

Hey man can you do a comparison of all the small tweeters that will fit in a oem factory car location? I know you said the audiopipe sounds like crap but I just cant fit ANY of those tweeters in my car. I dont know what one to buy i need a small one...

[@Jayarajdreams]

Pioneer(small one) is the best treble. I think with my previous experiences Pioneer tweeters produce the best and crisp, distortionles highs and quality treble than others. I think cross over is the main part of crisp treble to avoid harshness . because most tweeters produce some low freequency highs, we need to cut off at 2-3khz. Low freequency highs is the main reason for harshness

he is reviewing top selling brands that people actually buy , not the ''i gotta have everything match names'' brands . personally owning a bunch of those 3 brands they are not ''better'' than say pioneer or PRV , they all have different aspects that are good , but different . take the DD VO-B4 vs the pioneer , they both are loud , they both sound good , they both handle power are the DD worth over double the price ? not really unless you just want that DD name in ur build . crescendo ''if they are ever in stock'' are ok , nothing super special , they have some decent like the FT1 , the ones that come in component sets are poor , and when reviewed and left 2 stars the review was removed..... thats pretty sad a company hiding real reviews , they keep all the 5stars and you dont see them on ebay or amazon because people can leave legit reviews . seeing you mention sundown for tweeters ? the few they have are nothing above and beyond any other brands , sundown makes good speakers like the neo pro's but the tweeters are expensive for what you actually get , brands like audiopipe , audiotek , massive , rockvile , ect. compete with them, your paying for a name . out of the 3 DD has the better ones and they are just crazy high prices and are they really worth it when you compare other top shelf top $ brands ? also all 3 brands claim they have done tons of research and development but they haven't been around anywhere near as long as some of these other brands and the claims on paper dont reflect real world . brands you should be looking at would be like JBL /Selenium , Infinity , MTX , Pioneer , Dayton , TAD , Sony , SB acoustics , Scanspeak / NVX , morel , ect . many of these brands have been making tweeters longer than those 3 you listed have been in business . believe it or not but boss audio out sells all 3 of those brands combined in tweeters . 4 boss audio tw30 are like 40$ lol and they are not horrible . anyways you should open your mind up to the brands that have been around forever unless your all about having that certain name on something . top 100 on ebay and amazon not 1 of those 3 brands has a tweeter in the top 100.....

Sound quality are horns just loud or can they produce great quality sound compared to silk dome tweeters

[@csj9619]

No comparison, HLCD tweeters are way more efficient, louder and sound fantastic, but there are trade-offs/downside to 'em, like size and phasing issues. If you decide to go that route, here are some good options: 1.) B & C DE250 it's what all others are compared to 2.) Selenium/JBL D220Ti 3.) PRV D280 is half the cost of the first 2, but as good or better (to me)

[@OutofluckpikerMJK]

Nice that someone is doing some kind of tests, but why not try out small flange neo dome/RR tweeters that are a lot smaller, a lot higher quality sounding and still not more expensive than anyone of these? I am out of car sound atm but I don't get it. Every single dome of some quality are able to put out the spl needed at these distances. And, they most often sound good too. Try the SB29/21RDC dimple dome, XT25SC90/XT19, D26NC56/BC25SC55 and so on that are proven high SQ drivers. Look to home hifi gear. Also, use the same XO for all of them, for a fair test setup.
