Features of Gravity G-245TW
i. 300w peak power, neodymium magnet
There is a lot to expect from this tweeter. Its power handling is mind-blowing. We’ve seen a few car tweeters that can take up to 300 watts and this tweeter is a force to reckon with. The tweeter’s high power handling indicates that it is able to work with high-powered systems. With the neodymium magnet, there is no doubt that you’ll get clear highs from your system. Neodymium is considered among the best magnet materials for precise sound production.
G-245TW’s exceptional power handling and use of premium magnet material explain why the tweeter is able to give incredible highs and significantly improve the quality of sound.
ii. Silk dome
A silk dome tweeter offers various benefits. It is inexpensive and lightweight yet it provides long-term reliability in sound performance. The G-245TW boasts of superior engineering, which is a surety that the silk dome is well-constructed to provide the best sonic performance. Compared to some dome materials, silk gives you better sound imaging. As evidence for this, the tweeter gives crisp sound without getting harsh on your ears. Listen to any type of music, including rock jams with lots of cymbals, and the tweeters will perform softly even at very volumes. They give incredible sound and do not leave your ears ringing.
iii. 94dB sensitivity and a wide frequency response (2K HZ – 30K HZ)
Gravity G-245TW does more than just lifting the soundstage and improving sound imaging. It is designed to completely change your listening experience as you do your day to day drives. An upper frequency limit of 30 kHz allows the tweeter to take the highest notes that any randomly selected sound would have. Adding this tweeter to your system is certainly a reliable way of getting fuller sound across the frequency range.
Besides, the tweeter’s high sensitivity makes it suitable for both high-powered and some low-powered systems. If you are currently using a factory system, this tweeter will fit in just fine.
iv. Anti-resonant stamped steel basket
Stamped steel baskets are reputed with premium-quality sound. Gravity chose to use an anti-resonant stamped steel basket to ensure that there are minimal harmonics and distortions in the sound output. The ultimate goal of adding tweeters is to improve the audio system’s sound performance, and Gravity G-245TW has excelled at it.
v. Easy installation
Installing these awesome high-frequency sound drivers is a breeze. First, the tweeter comes with spade speaker terminals, which give you two major benefits. First, they provide high-quality and secure speaker connections. Spade terminals fit tightly and don’t loosen with time. Secondly, they are easier to install compared to other types of speaker terminals.
The other feature that makes this tweeter easy to install is the inclusion of mounting kits. You get both flush-mount and surface-mount swivel cups, allowing you more flexibility over the desired installation location.
