Tweeter selection, dayton, parts express

Hey guys im lookin at getting some new tweeters and doing my research. I came along some dayton silk tweets that have great reviews at a great price! anyone else have experience with these? anyone know of similar silk tweeters? im looking smoother response and cant stand bright or metal tweeters.

tweeters will be getting 75 rms from my jl 300/4 xover around 2.5k
input greatly appreciated.

Have a look at the CSS ERT26 Creative Sound - Product Details

I have no clue how they sound, but they are on my "to try" list.

Very nice looking tweet...especially for the money. I wonder why it's more expensive to ship in Canada as opposed to the States?

Solen is a website just like Parts Express, only Canadian. Anything I find on PE I email Solen, and they can usually get it for near the same price.
