Sorry, but I don't have any experience with this tweeter. Be sure to check the sensitivity, frequency range and crossover requirements.

I tried a pair per channel Xover 1500 with 2226Hs. I liked the sound alot but sweet spot was very small. Move your head a foot and get different results. Others have reported 4 per channel is the way to go.

These tweeters are not that great if you compare them to
a good soft dome tweeter. I have eight of these (HiVi brand),
same as Dayton and if you use all eight in a line source, then
the sonics are very interesting and revealing, but a single unit
is not that spectacular. You get what you pay for, a $24 tweeter,
for that price it's not bad really. Make a line array - lol
