Need some tweet suggestions, Don't really know what to go with to match NeoPro mids.

[Chris Hammer]

Got some Sundown neoPro 6.5's for each front door. One 4 ohm in each door. I need some 4ohm tweets too and don't really know what I should go with. I have about 55w for each at 4ohm.

I wish they had the selenium tweets in 4ohm, but I can only find 8. Anyone have suggestions for something similar? I have about 3.5" diameter area to play with.MAYBE 4 and probably 1.5-2inches mounting depth extendable to maybe 2.5 max.

I don't want them to overpower the mids, but I still like my music bright and have always had my tweets eq'd up a little, but I've heard the pro audio tweeters can be over powering.

Any suggestions welcome. Budget wise, I want to keep it fairly budget concious, It is a budget build after all. Maybe like 30-40$ a piece...maybe 50 if someone really talks me into it.

Thanks for any help.

Any opinions on these http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=264-1034

I've seen them in a few builds before.

There are these as well:

*Edit- Just noticed they were 8 ohm with final impedance of 5.6 ohms

Everything else looked good, spec wise though

The neopro 6.5 has approx. 90.7db efficiency. If you wanted a tweeter to match I'd get one within 2DB of that, with power handling adequate to your amp (or matching the neopro, preferably) and matching resistance.

With an 8 ohm tweeter around 2-5 db higher will be optimal (only need 50% the power handling that the neopros will see) since you like them to sound bright, I'd err more towards the 5db higher. 6db might be too high.

Those vifas would be perfect as long as you're not overpowering them!

Thanks for the help man. Appreciate it. Imma look around some more and on eBay and keep in mind what you are saying. THANKS

These are great. I had them 4 of them in my car 2 yrs. ago. Really laid back sound. As long as you cross them above 2500hz they will sound great. Didn't really even need any eq.

Chris on the subject of the resistance; why do the tweeters need to be 4 ohms? If you get a higher efficiency 8 ohm tweeter the wattage will be cut by half but the tweeters sensitivity will make up for it. What is the sensitivity on those neo pro's? Having a hard time finding it.

Will a friend gave me some super tweets for now, I gave him some leftover wire and chepa rca's, they're pioneer ones.. THey aren't anything great. I have a feeling I won't like them, but I'm going to give them a shot and if I like em keep em, If not Ill go with those vifa's. I wasn't thinking about the sensitivity, you make a good point, and the draw on electrical will be even less.

What I could find the sensitivity is 95db on the neopro 6's (IF my memory is correct, that was a few days ago.)

So far I love them though.
