Help choosing a tweets

but be prepared for a mounting difficulty with that large baffle.

Thats what I didn't like about the MC's.

Probably could wire it right in and use the rainbow crossovers...

Thats what I was gonna do, but what will cause a tweet not to sound good on my crossover, and what should I stay away from since I have to use the "stock" crossover with the rainbow?

And outta all the tweets what would be everyones choice? Since I'm not new to this part of audio lol, I'm not to keen on this stuff.

Still need help, only think I dont like about the McI's is they have no cover grill for them. And Ill be going passive.

I would try to find some graphs on the tweeter and find out what crossover points and slopes are being used on your crossover. Read Jonathan's FAQ on choosing midbasses as well (although I'm sure you already have). Some of that info might carry over.

i don't really know a whole bunch about tweeters, but these are the ones that come with the boston pro's and they get really loud while retaining a crisp clean sound.

not totally sure I would trust the idea of "$500" tweeters. Sounds like they are trying to ramp up the hype.

look here: not a bad tweeter

or these: jbls are pretty good too

otherwise look into some Vifa or Scan Speak soft domes

Them tweets were paired with there $2000 dollar comp set. So If it goes cheap I'll pick it up. If I don't get itm, I'll probally just go active.
