Our take on the Kenwood Excelon KFC-XT14

If you crave crispness and savor sizzle in your highs, the Kenwood Excelon KFC-XT14 3/4" tweeters can make a big improvement in your system's sound. The titanium dome design supplies big clear highs, and is ready for the high-frequency requirements of DVD-Audio, with a frequency response that ranges up to 90,000 Hz!

You'll appreciate the down-to-earth details also. A 5-way mounting system provides plenty of installation flexibility, and the 200 watts of peak power handling make these a great addition to your high-power system. Includes a high-pass filter in a compact, see-through housing.

The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order.

 
I'm using this at home with my old Technics speakers - just used the included high pass filter in parallel with existing speakers and there is a definite difference on the highs - I feel that I don't need any expensive speaker anymore. I've tried ONKYO and POLK R30 and none of them sounded this good.
You may want to see the frequency response graph on owners' manual (which you can download right from here).
