wanna upgrade my front stage but money wise goin to have to do tweets then mids... goin to go tweets first. Runnin a basic 2 way active crossover to a RF T400-4. the birthsheet says its puttin out 76 watts per at 4 ohms. got some PPI art series in there now but the tweets arent cuttin it for me, they arent handling the power to well. The Mids actually arent that bad but the tweets cant even handle the gain near half at my max volume. jus need something jus a lil more louder and it be fine for me. All this supertweeter, horn tweeter, silk tweeter got my head spinning.... jus lookin for some brands to look at the will handle what the RF is puttin out, jus want something nice and clear with jus a lil more loudness than what I got (even louder is fine too)

Here is a sampling of the types you mentioned. You didn't mention a budget so a couple of these will be over 100 each some much less.

dome (silk) tweeters

horn tweeters/supertweeters

http://www.parts-exp...tnumber=264-348

http://www.parts-exp...tnumber=294-580

the ones directly above will almost always be more efficient than sik dome tweeters. They will be louder given the same wattage. Silk domes have a very pleasant laid back sound. Horave a more output that can be offensive if they aren't tuned right. Both tuned properly can kick all manner of ass. I think a pair of silk domes would work in your case but I can't vouch for the xover you will use. It was made for there tweeter so you might just want to use an inline freq filter.
