How do you tone these down a bit, the tweets are a litle on the harsh side.

I have two sets in my 03 Tundra with a Elemental Designs 10KO

    try wiring them out of phase, are those the components? or the coaxials?
    if theyre the components, what do you have the settings at?

    first, where are the tweets located at ?
    reason i ask is...if they are in the dash firing at the window try reversing the polarity of just the tweeter..this will put the tweet back in phase with the mid/woofer.. it will help eliminate the harshness of the tweet.

    had some alpine type R's that were way bright even with the tweet set at -6, did this and put it back at 0, what a diff.

    worth a shot if this is your setup, other than that most x-overs for components have some thing in them for minusing out som db going to them
