You'll get different interference patters/sound cancellations with different center to center disctance to the big driver. I suggest placing them in a circle around the big driver instead! That makes for a more fair comparison.
I believe the jbl's are rated EACH while most other tweeters are rated for the pair. They are edge-driven, which basically means the voice coils are as wide as the cone.
The JBL club is hard to beat..it's ability to reach highs easily..and blend almost seamlessly sold me yrs ago...it doesn't reach down low so you need a good midbass to cover the gap...they do great crossed over at 3500..I wish I could get em to 2500
Alpine blends in clean upper midrange but lacks the very highest frequency. But that’s my pick. JBL has the clearest higher frequency response. The others have some hiss(Kicker the most).
I have the deaf bonce machete mpt17 neo silk dome tweeters, and they are super clear and natural sounding. If you dont want to much crispyness or harsh highs but want a good upper frequency definition they are great and super cheap. Have them on 40w rms a piece pair well with my sylvester mids
The JBL sounds the brightest and cleanest of all but the kicker sounds more natural. The pioneer is just too tinny sounding and the Alpine just has too much low, end in it from my taste.
Awesome video! Do you have a suggestion for a 5.25" component? I have a 91 325i convertible Im trying to figure out speakers for. It only has four 5.25" and the depth is sonewhat shallow, some of the higher end speakers like Kappas may not fit the depth. I dont mind running anl amp if necessary. Id love to hear your thoughts....id like to stay under $150 a set, but can spend more if theres a huge difference.
The Hertz brand's "budget" tweeters. "Dt24.3", (33$+ -) (microscopic tweeter) destroys 3/4 of this tweeters without problems ...93db 1w1m and super high frequencies , Hertz brand are monster
Hey mike what do you think about the new pioneer pro series can you test it? This will be very good because they say it is inspired by record breaking sound speakers
Jbl to me is smoothest to me too, and I have kicker ks components in my car atm. Pioneer is ugly as sin but does sound rather nice too, alpine and kicker sound the worst for high end extention and harshness to me anyway
JBL 750T seems to be out of stock on most of places, or discontinued, Is there newer version of JBL 750T that you would recommend? Some said below Hertz DT 24.3, and this one seems to be 5 years old+. Any advise would be great
Are these the same as the GTO 750T. I run GTO609C components and love them. I also give them about 50% overrated power with a 100 Hertz -12 DB hi pass.
I am running the JBL's up high with JBL GTO 939 in the lower mid door on a D4S JP84 amp. I have them at -3db on my Kenwood ddx396. They sound beautiful.
You should dip your toes in the recoil pool, i bought the $120 sam65 2 way kit and there excellent and drop dead gorgeous. But they have several levels of 2 way components and coaxials from $35 to $120 and i also picked up there new rpm365 3 way component set for $160 off patrick at robot and its pretty kickass but its still not listed on there site? so i dont know whats up with that...
I'm running the Recoil REM ECHO 6.5 component speakers and my setup will beat anyone of those tweeters on this video. It's a 1 inch silk dome tweeter with surround on a Neodynium magnet. Those Alpines S series are attrociously bright and ring out like crazy under power. I'm running 60 watts to my component speakers, tweeter crossed at 3000hz and the 6.5 woofer HPF crossed at 120hz...Have the cross over to the tweeter at -4db on the 2 pin and my system images like a dream. I wouldn't waste my money on any of these name brand tweeters/components sets in this video...I'm running them off of the Recoil DI550.4 amp that was only $85.00. Recoil components are price to performance CHAMPIONS when powered correctly and the cross overs are set correctly!
I dunno. The jbl sounded the worst on my end... alpine kicker pioneer jbl... i have the jbl gto components in one car and those alpine tweeters in anothee
Pioneer sounds too sharp and unpleasant. Kicker sounds hissy and hollow. Alpine sounds like it doesn't have enough power to it, boxy through most and too sharp on the very top.
Running the JBLs with around 65w RMS on each and they sound absolutely amazing!

Yes pls!

Guessing you're running active bud to have that kind of adjustment

Thank you Mike, great video.. I made up my mind based on your review :D
The JBL and the pioneers is the cleanest
For sure
Im currently installing the Alpines in my 2nd gen diesel truck 2 front pillars and 2 in the rear up high, your review is greatly appreciated
What amp did you use that’s exactly what I want to do for my set up 2 in the front and 2 rear fillers
Test them with classical music , which one plays more natural sound ?
I like the sound of the Kicker one and Alpine. I would use both at the same time. Thanks for the review men.

I❤ your sound testing method.
Hey mike what do you think about the new pioneer pro series can you test it? This will be very good because they say it is inspired by record breaking sound speakers
I'll take a wide frequency range over narrow because I like to dail it in with active crossovers and an equalizer.
Jbl to me is smoothest to me too, and I have kicker ks components in my car atm. Pioneer is ugly as sin but does sound rather nice too, alpine and kicker sound the worst for high end extention and harshness to me anyway

Passive crossovers are bad. I play my (1200fs) tweeters full active with 3000hz highpass on A/B amp and they play low without distortion.
Are these the same as the GTO 750T. I run GTO609C components and love them. I also give them about 50% overrated power with a 100 Hertz -12 DB hi pass.

2 tweeters and 2 coaxials? Each on their own channel or?
I wonder how Focal would measure up in this contest?
Focals tweeters aren't insanely priced compared to these tweeters either
Can you recommend for high to low converter?
Jbl and infinity 6520cx tweeter are looking same.
Sir jbl tweeters ko home theatre se connect kar sakte hai kya
Pioneers and jbls👍
Great job Mike!!
Thank you!
Yust love pioneer . JBL is super
Mi 1st choice is the JBL, 2nd is Alpine, 3rd is Pioneer. I'm very suprise that the Kicker plays so low.
My first choice is non of the above. Buy Recoil components over any of these...Recoil are price to performance champions!
JBL is better

I Like The Alpine One ❤❤❤
ts s20 vs ts s20 c which is best?
Ts S20
Buy JBL )
Hey Mike I got a question for you?
Just ask me bro )
Pioneer Ts-s20 sound better than the new version.
I like that alpine
I dunno. The jbl sounded the worst on my end... alpine kicker pioneer jbl... i have the jbl gto components in one car and those alpine tweeters in anothee
Kicker 46CST204
JBL is better.. but Pioneer surprise me too
Yeah bro trust me I always surprised
Pioneer sounds too sharp and unpleasant. Kicker sounds hissy and hollow. Alpine sounds like it doesn't have enough power to it, boxy through most and too sharp on the very top.
If you install a tweeter into a stock stereo with no amp do not use the reducer, you wont hear @#$&.
❤
bro show some new 6x9 speakers ...
pioneer and kicker 100 3 jbl
Alpine 😮
I think hertz and JL destroys thim all
Your wrong nothing can beat this Jbl man
alpine the worst
1st!!!!!
Thank you for wotching )
