which tweeter to choose to pair up with these two ? in the same price range

Alcone AC 10 HE
Alcone AC 10 HE - RumoH - Caps, coils and speakers

Visaton AL 130 M
AL 130 M - RumoH - Caps, coils and speakers

Aren't many domes that wouldn't work fine paired into that. You've got an easy sensitivity goal and very flexible x-over options off that mid-range. 1" size domes would probably be the best balance.

In sticking with the metallic theme, perhaps something like this would be a nice aesthetic match: Vifa NE25-VTA-04, Aluminium - RumoH - Caps, coils and speakers

Might look to see if anyone has tested distortion before pulling the trigger.

what about his one ? zaph audio says it´s a good tweeter

Seas 29TAF/W
H1322-06 - Seas 29TAF/W 1 inch tweeter aluminium dome - Europe Audio

is this one a good option too ?

Seas 27TTFNC/GW
H1461-06 - Seas 27TTFNC/GW 1 inch tweeter titanium dome - Europe Audio

Shoot, go with that one that zaph has tested, at least then you know. I like that better than the suggestion I made since you have evidence to support it being a decent unit.

The only thing I like about he Vifa better is the smaller face plate, which would be friendlier with a higher x-over point since you could get the drivers spaced closer together. Hopefully others will chime in with ideas

with careful maybe it´s possible to cut a litle of the baffle to bring tweeter and mid closer

Hi,

Any decent tweeter should work. You'd better know your x/o design onions.

rgds, sreten.
