1point21gigawatts Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 That’s not weird. That why I have a dual bass knob. On speaker amps you just have to use 4 y splitters (1 male to 2 female). Match prong colors rather than match prong channels, if that makes sense. And them silk dome tweeters would work at that amount of rms is sufficient and if placement is good. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking around, I found these. https://www.parts-express.com/dynavox-td2801xl-1-1-8-silk-dome-tweeter--275-200 https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/scanspeak-soft-dome-tweeters/scanspeak-discovery-d2606/9220-1-textile-dome-tweeter/ Unless you've got a better idea of course. That S4 says 220 watts per channel at 2 ohm and 140 per channel at 4 ohm. So I figured the tweeter had to be at least 100 watt rms unless I use 4 ohm tweets, in which case they'd have to be more.

jcarter1885 Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 These are 4 ohms and the one's I use. I currently have them on a SSA IC150.4. Gains all the way down. Just another option to check out. I loved them, selling them to a friend since I upgraded to some Stevens Audio HLCD horns. https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/ring-radiator-tweeters/sb-acoustics-sb29rdcn-c000-4-neo-magnet-ring-dome-tweeter/ Nav-TV Zen V Audio Interface AudioControl DM-608 (2) Stevens Audio Neo-Comp Full-Size Horns (4) Faital Pro 6PR160 6.5" AudioControl LC-6.1200 (1) Fi Neo 4.7 15" D2 in 3.74 Cubic Feet @ 27.70 Hz Ampere Audio AA3800.1 Odyssey ODP-AGM48 Battery (Starting) Odyssey ODX-AGM31 Battery (Trunk) Big 3 - 2\0 Welding Cable, KnuKonceptz Speaker Wire & 1/0 Power Cable, NVX RCAs, Second Skin (Speaker Tweaker Pads, Damplifier Pro Mat), Diode Dynamics LEDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SB Acoustics stuff looks like some good stuff! I just wish those particular ones where 8 ohm.

1point21gigawatts Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Which tweeters are you leaning towards? “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you can always control that, with the gains down they still over power my mids.

1point21gigawatts Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Both them tweeters you are looking at are almost the same. The only difference is the fabric on the dome. One is silk and one is textile with unlisted fabric. So the only difference is how the sound breaks up. Unless that textile is silk weaved. Then them tweeters are the same. Basically, textile means woven fabric. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that would be fine on that amp you have. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I wish I knew the material of the fabric so I could know more about the sound. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1point21gigawatts Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 You could do them tweeters in parallel at 1.5 ohms and tune them tweeters on a 0db tone and you would be fine. I like those tweeters more than the 2 you picked out. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
