Do these tweeters require a crossover? I know some tweeters have built in high pass filters but can not find any information about these.

These use a piezo type driver element that do not require a high pass crossover. You can add one to improve sound, it would not hurt.

No these do not require a crossover, I believe they have one built in or a HPF built in. I have mine wired to the front door speakers and they sound fantastic. No amps or crossovers needed.

To clarify the other answer...Phase has nothing to do with brightness. Phase is taking the left and right wires and reversing them. That would be 180 degrees out of phase. The minus 1, 3, and 6...is in db. To simply make the tweeters less loud...which is the same as less bright. What the question actually asked, is what is the frequency in which the mid bass driver is "crossed over" and the tweeter takes over playing the upper frequencies? I do not sell these, or own them, but were looking at these to purchase for myself. So, I do not know the answer to the crossover point question, but wanted to at least chime in so everyone else didn't think the other answer was in the least bit correct. It has nothing to do with answering the questioned asked, and has incorrect information.

I have measured their impedence as around 4 1/2 ohms over much of their frequency range; this is likely to rise around the crossover point when you add a capacitor (eg 3.3 microfarad) to keep low frequencies out. Whether they sound any good will depend on whether they are similar to what you are replacing, they are very efficient and might end up sounding very bright, with unpredictable integration with whatever woofers you are using. Good luck! Richard

I actually didnt put in these tweeters I left the factory ones in. It would have been a lot of work and really theres not a whole lot of difference. U wont blow the factory tweeters either I have 75 watts going to each speaker in my car its the low frequencies that blow the speaker and that wont reach the factory tweeters. But if u do want to put them in there are different ways too. Its personal preference. Either in the door somewhere sail panel or dash. Idk if your car has tweeters already or not. If it doesnt I would look for speakers with the tweeter in them aready not componet speakers. Its all personal preference.

Noooo lol just the tweeters.. get a class-D mono for the subs is sugges Boss audios 5K amp for the subs. Sorry for late reply feel free to ask anyything else.

The tweeter part of the speakers have built in crossovers, but not the main speaker. You can still damage them if you allow to much bass through them.

No crossovers on them it's the mid bass woofer only. It's a nice looking speaker. By the way I bought on amazon and never used them would u want to buy my set I could cut the price a little bit. Please let me know. Thanks I can also ship out tomorrow.

No. You want to treat these more like tweeters. They sound good on the high end, but trying to put a lot of mid-frequency and low end bass through them will only make them crackle.

They are a bit large for a workstation. And the tweeter waveguides would make the height and direction critical. Probably not their idea application, but I think you could make them work with a little experimentation.

No, these speakers have two different sets of terminals. One for the tweeter, one for the mid-range cones. This setup normally allows hifi systems that separate these frequencies into separate outputs to be connected independently of each other on the speaker.The speakers come with a jumper pre-installed that bridges the two sets of inputs. Only one pair (+/-) of speaker wire is required to connect these speakers.

not sure if this will help, but I used these on my rear speakers. Wired tweeters and rear speakers on same rear signal sending wires. IT sounds fine. Mids and highs. Your probably better off using the crossovers that comes with them.

Yes, it comes with an inline crossover...really nice set of tweeter at low and high listening levels. I bought a second set after

No. The tweeters operate at different frequencies than the mid range driver. These frequencies are separated by what's called a passive crossover.

If your running a component system it should come with a crossover if so this amp will be perfect. The cross over will run both the tweeter and midranges and give you 1 input to power the speaker from the crossover.

it will depend on the room around the tweeter opening. I installed the crossover in the doors and installed the tweeter in the dash worked fine for me.

They are quite small, about 1.25 inch in diameter so they will fit about anywhere. The important things to make sure are compatible is the resistance (ohms). It won't be a direct plug and play. You will likely need to do some splicing of wires and depending install the crossovers if your stock system doesn't already have one. But it probably does. Do research on your cars audio system and match it back to the game specs of these tweeters. I loved mine. I have them installed in an e46 BMW.
