He's referring to crappy recordings. Detailed tweeters will tell u when your recording is bad. My current tweeters tell me very quickly. I look at it as personal preference. You can get a less detailed tweet that's more forgiving for bad recordings or a detailed tweet that will make crappy recordings sound like just that. If your music is lossless, I'd go for the more detailed tweet.Well, I started looking into the SPZ set and they have certainly generated a lot nice words/reviews. Do you think the tweeters would perform well angled in the dash? Also, do you think powering them with an alpine PDX f4 bridged would be sufficient?
One more thing as well, I've read users complaining about the speakers making certain recordings sound jumbled. One poster over at DIYMA said "I will say there is a fault to this set, and could be a deal breaker for a lot of people. I have found so far that crappy recordings (or media formats period) sound extra crappy! I know....its kind of a Duh! statement but be warned! If you listen to crap...your gonna be really pissed if you get these. I found that shady recordings; underground, certain techno, punk, death metal, etc... tend to be a giant jumble of "stuff" via there particular chosen recording processes."
Do you believe he is speaking just about bad quality MP3's? Or about just those music genres in general? (I listen to most of those). My music is normally played through my iPod which is all in Apple Lossless.

As for the power, I think they'll be fine but iirc, they are 3 ohms so idk if your alpine amp is stable down to 3 ohms when bridged...so that's up to u on that one. I honestly think the 100wrms that amp does should be fine for them with a good install.
And to comment on the tweeters, I couldn't tell u to be honest how they'd perform in that location. Too many variables to consider. But a lot of ppl run stock locations and are fine with it...those SPZs are also able to run in coaxial mode too so that helps in maintaining a stock look.
