Do bullet tweeters sound good?

What is the difference between a tweeter and a super tweeter?

“Super tweeter” refers to how it is used. If the majority of the treble is done by the mid-range, then it is a super tweeter. Some tweeters are made with very high LF cutoff so they are only suitable for very high crossovers.

Are bigger tweeters better?

Bigger tweeters aren’t necessarily better; neither are smaller ones. The tweeter’s size mainly matters in one area: where they’ll fit in your car. That said, smaller tweeters might be slightly better at reproducing high frequencies with more accuracy, whereas larger tweeters can be somewhat louder.

    How big should a tweeter be?

    The bigger they are the lower will be the frequency that they stop radiating into half space and start beaming. A larger diaphragm can drive more air at the lower frequencies of the drivers range than a smaller one. If you want real top end you should have a one inch or less tweet.

    What is a good size tweeter?

    the tweeter size affects dispersion. The bigger they are the lower will be the frequency that they stop radiating into half space and start beaming. A larger diaphragm can drive more air at the lower frequencies of the drivers range than a smaller one. If you want real top end you should have a one inch or less tweet.

    Are smaller tweeters better?

    This means that a larger tweeter tends to be more flexible in an install and makes pairing it with a midrange easier. A smaller tweeter tends to play higher frequencies better and tend to have better off-axis response.

    What is full range tweeter?

    Why are woofers bigger than tweeters?

    subwoofers need to be bigger than tweeters because as the frequency is reduced, the radiation resistance of the speaker cone goes down because the cone impedance is mismatched relative to the air it is radiating into. To remedy this, the cone diameter needs to be increased for best efficiency at low frequencies.

    Are super tweeters worth it?

    There are many audiophiles who believe a super tweeter will improve sound quality. It is actually quite a controversial issue and I have been involved in debates over the effectiveness of using super tweeters at least twice – once in the hifi4sale forum and the second time with a group of Australian audiophiles.
