REaudioBuff Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 So im wondering what people have done with going active... When you glass your door do you typiacally want to point the speakers toward your head as much as you can for the best sound? I dont want them to just scream I will have them tuned in nicely with my 3sixty.2. I have everything set I'm really just wondering how to angle my speakers or if I should just fit as many as possible in my doors. 4k daily on one 15" sub is what kinda base I have to keep up with. Any advice would be nice as I'm one of the only people I know of around KC, MO going active.

I had a pair before and they were harsh as hell, couldn't throw much power at them because on the right note they would have like a ringing sound.

Ddub847 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 agree. WIth those tweeters i dont think you can make those sound good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REaudioBuff Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 Well TeamdcDerrick is building his system right now. I saw he was using them and they take 150rms and they are only $10... This is also my first time running active. Granted I do have a 3sixty.2 I just want to make sure I can crossover the tweets well and have everything running smoothly. I thought if they sounded good then great I got a deal and will keep them. If not then I will get the crescendo tweets as well im sure.

S15_Silvia Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 Honest question: why would you waste a 3sixty.2 on $10 tweeters?

Point taken well if you decide to run Crescendo and are interested I have the XST2's bought BNIB off a guy on CACO a month ago and decided to run all one brand of a different brand so no need for em. I was unable to make those Pyramids sound good but I wasn't running active and I didn't have something as nice as a 3sixty.2 lol. All I had was a Clarion crossover and eq; for the life of me I couldn't get rid of the ringing in my ears. If you can then you my friend got one hell of a deal on em.

REaudioBuff Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 I'll keep you in mind for sure on the tweets bro! I will figure out how they sound within the next week or so I think. Oh and I'm not wasting a 3sixty.2 on them I've had that for about 4 years now. Its made every system I've had sound much better! Thanks for the concern tho lol.

__d_a_v_i_d__ Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 All the tweeters on the market today are somewhat smiliar, i would use those tweets on low power to not be harsh. but look on ebay, all brands have the same damn design its annoying. i heard pyles before, and they sound the same as top brand ones. im considering this sex looking ones. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-PYLE-PDBT39-1-5-400W-HEAVY-DUTY-ALUMINUM-SUPER-TWEETER-400-WATT-1-1-2-/270929594556?pt=Car_Speakers&hash=item3f14a988bc Quote Chevy Impala Shocker Sigs / TC Sounds 12s Sundown NS-1 | SAX 100.4 Sundown Neos | Dayton Audio Neos ETCCC ETCCC ETCCC My YouTube ---- Subcribe!!
