Our take on the JL Audio VR075-CT

JL Audio's VR075-CT 3/4" silk dome tweeters bring your high frequency sounds into crisp, clear focus. You'll hear more details in your music, with a real sense of where each instrument is placed in the mix.

Each tweeter comes with mounting hardware for flush- or surface-mounting, and JL Audio's variable mounting system offers swivel and rotation capabilities that permit precise aiming even after installation. JL Audio includes in-line filters which ensure the VR075-CT tweeters get only the right kind of signals.

Features

Product Overview: The VR-series 3/4" silk dome component tweeters are precision manufactured in Germany. The tweeters feature powerful, ferro-fluid cooled and damped neodymium magnets. You can mount the tweeters in the supplied flush-mount or surface-mount fixtures. When the tweeters are flush-mounted, the RSR (Ratcheting Swivel/Rotation) mounting system allows the tweeter to be rotated and/or angled for optimum imaging. The flush-mount fixtures can be used with or without the supplied trim ring.

Not Worth the $$$

Written By Sean, Richmond, VA on Monday, March 16, 2009
 
i went from polk db speakers w/ db1001 tweeters to these and was very disappointed. polks build quality is far superior (they are just built tougher w/ thicker wiring, better dampening, and aren't as harsh) , dont get me wrong i love JL (i own a 10w7 and hd750) but these tweeters aren't worth the $$$ when the polks are cheaper
