I accidentally left this open while I went and played softball, then showered, ate, and watched Jumper. That would be a cool gift to have.

Need to start looking for a new 2 way active setup to put in the truck :)

Budget? Kicks or staying in the doors this time?

Staying in the doors. don't have the budget to do kicks or the desire to fiberglass in this 100+ degree weather. I'm looking for a 6.5"+ mid with a large format tweet (or a small format if it fits better of course)

I was told $105 to replace both the DLS tweets. Very steep considering I payed $160 for the whole component set

Fits better? You have tons of space. Off axis response will be your friend.

In large formats I can't think of any that can't be crossed that "low"

Fit better as far as for the goals of the set. I didn't want to make a blanket statement saying i wanted to have a large format tweeter and completely rule out any small formats that would work great

There is some cheap shit that can't handle 4k, but for $10/driver you can do better than what you had.

If you can truly use that high of a cross point though you can pick up some serious bennies in the off axis response. Look at the difference in that regard comparing the XT19 and XT25. Hmmm. :P

I'm letting a lot of information fly unorganized in my posts. Getting a little confusing...

1. Looking for a tweet to cross at 5K passively on the DLS component set. (will be used on the four wheeler and prefer a small format for this application) Cheaper the better as I would just be looking for some tunes.

2. I'm looking for a 6.5"+ mid with a large format tweet in the doors of my Silverado

Any idea the true impedance of the DLS? Are they both blown? How about the sensitivity?

How well do you want it to blend with the mids?

Loud or clarity a focus? How much power?

Exposed to the elements?

And of course..............................................budget?

Just because you have crappy crossovers doesn't mean you have to use said crappy crossovers. Jeese

Not sure who Jeese is, but have read it about ten different ways in my mind since you posted it earlier.

If I'm not mistaken both the woofer and the tweet were 4 ohms. DLS states sensitivity at 94dB The Mids are great as far as condition, I really have no idea why the tweets blew. It didn't seem to me like I was putting much power at all and they are rated for 50W nominal.

Perfect blending is not that big of a deal at all. I would prefer clarity over plain loud. Maybe exposed to drops of water (not submerged). Budget is preferably not more than $20 a tweet
