    I'm a little skeptical with these speakers. They resemble the Adire Extremis, which isn't good to use very high, somewhere in the ballpark of 1khz to 1.5khz tops. The XT25 is a great tweeter if crossed over above 2.2khz, due to having some bad distortion figures down low. Still, for the price, these seem like a no-brainer.

    the buld is exelent i went for the parts express cabes 1 cf in piano black sealed sence i have a killer sub and i want the roll off for matching up with the sub. the tweater is the vifa ring radient like found in the polks but has the best materal for the dome that vifa offers a bit above the polks. they have dual 6.6 with a bullet for a extend high fr responce with a motor technology that has a flat bl and a high x max. they are also 8 ohm load so the are easy to drive. the effency is a little lower than my polk rti

    right now m theater is in parts i am moving my equipment rack so i have room to place the new speakers and also get into the room. i allmst have all the coloms that will house the speakers bult but i still need to wrap them and buld the trim
