Piezo horns vs. compression horns...

[p***@gmail.com]

Just found this thread and its pretty interesting.
Just to say that I have a setup in the car to use it to listen music outdoors with 12 piezo flower type piezos in a row.
I had compression drivers (2x jbl sel d220ti) and burned them, I think that were bad cutted.
The 12 piezos hit harder than the 2 d250x, yeah I know that 12 d220ti will hit much more than the 12 piezos I have at the moment.
But for the cost, I prefer the piezos, just wired to the amp and no crossover needed.
And I dont want quality in my setup, just some hard noise to play music :)
In my opinion piezos are a good deal, if you are looking for high spl and you dont are concernded about hi-end sound

They need to be used only up above 10 kHz especially when used in an array.
The array will add to the 4-5 kHz squaking ear piercing and ear bleeding.
In an case control that low end with proper crossover or controller.
