So far, I've only tried two, the EV T-35 and a piezo (using a crossover and matching transformer). The piezo just barely makes it as far as sensitivity goes when hooked with my EV LS-12's (crossed with either a 1 uF or a 1.5 uF cap and transformer with 50 ohm resistor). The T-35 is much more efficient then the piezo, but I kind of like the piezo's sound. I have damped the horn on the outside with plumbers putty, also.
Both tweeters work well, but I would like to experiment more before making a recommendation, like using a different horn tweeter, or maybe a ribbon (if I can find an affordable one with enough sensitivity, about 95 dB).
