I'm looking to build some new speakers using a compression driver for mid-range (like LE-175, LE-85 or 2420) and tweeter (like 077 or 2405). I've noticed that most 2405 tweeters on ebay are 16 Ohms. Is that what I want or doesn't it matter?
The reason I ask is that I already have a couple of LE-175 and an LE-85 in 8 Ohms. It would be great to be able to mix and match with new tweeters but I haven't seen any in 8 ohms. I know that I'm not supposed to mix 16 ohm and 8 ohm drivers in the same system though I think I recently saw JBL 4333 specs with 8 ohm woofer and 16 ohm mids and highs. Does that make sense?
Would love some advice on what I should be shopping for. Would you recommend that I keep looking for some 8 ohms super-tweeters or should I go with 16 ohms and find some new mid-range drivers while I'm at it?
Thanks for sharing!
