Why not try a resistor on the tweeter?

192.234.77.6

I actually think the reported efficiency of 88 db for the tweeter may be a bit too optimistic. I think the fact the radiation pattern is dipole and actually a lot more like 360 degrees "wastes" a lot of energy to the back, sides, etc, and in the listening position, it doesn't really sound like 88 db. This is why I have 4 tweeters per side to match(somewhat) my 91.75 dB speakers.
