Strength:
The clear, highest, and accurate ear loving sounds that emminate from these little tweeters will put you in another world. Boston has out done themselves again. Blast'em I dare u, insanely powerful little things- I've blasted them with nearly 40 watts rms and still, no distortion.
Weakness:
May have to leave the interior of the car if you turn'em up too loud. Silk dome is good, ceramic is better, then comes aluminum, and then the funky kewl stuff polk has, a mixture of different materials to make one neat little tweeter. So really, when you shell out over 150 for a pair of stinkin' tweeters, u get wat u pay for. Brands to stick to if your life depended on it? Boston. Polk. Infinity Kappa, Perfects. Similar Products Used: Alpine, Infinity, Polk, other Boston Rally series. These are all quality products, |

BA pro's are one of the most overrated speakers in the car audio industry, period, I have been running pro's for a few years, had the 6.4's, the 6.5's, even the Rallys a long time ago, basically, since I didnt know any better
Weakness:
the 6.5's are somewhat of an improvement over the 6.4's, but Boston had to do something drastic, MBQuart was killing them and still is, with their Q series, but at least BA made some efort to sell you a decent set of speakers for $450, anyone who thinks they can argue with this, go to any serious sq competition, and se how many of the top competitors are running BA's, cased closed, as far as Bostons tweters, they suck, always have, still do, they cant take power, never could, I've actually seen the 6.4's x overs melt down, and I came to the conclusion it was most likely x failure that allowed the tweets to get killed, nevertheless, its BA junk just my luck, I bought a Blazer and it had a set of Pro6.4's , in the doors, I tried to get the seller to take them and knock 100 bucks off the truck, smart guy, he said no......so thats my 3rd set of 6.4's, and I've had 2 sets of the 6.5's, which were replacements for the 6.4's, when they blew, now dont give me any crap about "amps clipping" distortion, or anything else you can say to blame me for the BA's lack of performance and inability to take power, because I know several other people that had the same problems with them that I had, in various installations, mostly high end....you want to keep your bostons going, baby them, and even then, good luck,because I've seen the tweeters blow with 20wrms...in a head installers vehicle.....end of story Similar Products Used: want to hear a real speaker, get Diamond Hexs, then you will realise just how bad your BA pro's are..., MBQ Q's kiil BA, not to mention Focals, and several others |

Nothing at all! WOW, these little puppies sound incredible. Set on ambient to lift my sound stage they are perfect.. I am using an eclipse 5 channel to run 7 speakers including the tweeters and it is so sweet...... I recommend these with confidence... Great product.... I have had good luck with all my Boston stuff so far..... Go buy these now...... Similar Products Used: Blaupunct 1" silk dome(also very good), JBL= (SUCK) |

1999/Neo 5t
Strength:
-Clear tight highs(very accurate)
Weakness:
-A little bright for my taste but nothing you can't fix by adjusting the crossover. I would most definitly recommend this product! Everything that Boston puts out is gold. Like I said before, the price is a bit much but you get what you pay for, and the crossover will tone down the brightness if you don't like it. For an aluminum tweet it more than met my expectations. The 5t is clear, and reproduction is true. Similar Products Used: Alpine, Diamond Audio, Polk, Infinity |
