is it possible to just add them or do u have to amp them, or at least get components. im going to be installing my subs soon but leave the factory deck and speakers in. what can i do to install a good set of tweeters, and what are some good tweeters out there?

thanks

 

You mean it didn't come with tweeters? Or you just want to replace the tweeters?

 

Yea, haven't you noticed the tweeters mounted by your mirrors?

 

i know i have factory ones, i want to either replace or add another set somewhere, considering our tweeters and speakers suck.

 

Well the factory position is the best place for tweeters to be mounted, it provides the best imaging. I would go with focal speakers.

 

well do aftermarket tweeters have to be amped or anything. i know in my other car, i couldnt add tweeters unless they were amped or i got a new headunit

 

You would have to amp them.

 

if i switch out the stock tweeters, the new ones have to be amped even though i am switching the old ones out?

 

Most likely because bose speakers usually have some crazy impeadance issues that work with their amp

 

The TN-45 tweeter will fit in the stock location but the TN-52 tweeter is larger and will have to be placed in the a-pillar.

I'd have to disagree with you on the stock location providing the best imaging though. I had the TN-45 in the stock location before. It sounded very good but still a little bit flat. When I upgraded to the TN-52 and relocated to the a-pillar, it definitely sounded more dynamic...almost like I was in a concert hall.

 

TN-52s are awesome, def mount them a-pillar too.

 

do u guys have pics of what the tweeters look like on the pillars, and how much are the TN-52's and where to find them.

thanks guys

I have no idea what they cost separately. The TN-52 tweeters came with the 165 K2P component set. Check with an authorized dealer.

 

yea my bass is overwheliming i need tweeters what can i do for 200 bucks for everything to increase my highs

 

can i buy these tn-45's or 52's separately or do they come as a component set?

 

actually, the factory speakers arent too bad, i have them hooked up with a kenwood 8401 amp and they sound great with the subs

 

If you're talking about the tweeter pods, that is by far one of the worst places to put them for imaging. The mid and highs need to be as close as possible to each other for the best imaging. Mounting them down by the mids and angling them slightly upward produces the best imaging.

 

so all these people tell me about the tn-45 or 52's and not one person can tell me if they sell them separate from components or where the got them.

 

Pick up the phone book and call a local car audio shop. I'm sure somebody will sell them separately...you just gotta check around.

I can tell you where I got mine, but I doubt you want to come all the way where I am to buy a set of tweeters.

 

well i figured my fellow a-cl members would help me out, so i wouldnt have to rely on a phone book. but i guess i have no choice.

 

music in motion on the south side does a pretty good job, call them, musicinmotion.net, although, i like the stock tweeters as long as you have a separate amp

 

musin in motion isnt too far from my house. i might stop in there. thanks

 

I would love to help you out...but we're not even in the same time zone...or country for that matter.

 

well if i replace the stock amp with a better one, will the bose sound alot better. and if i added another set of tweeters, could i amp them off that replacement amp or would i have to buy 2 amps?
