RE: Coaxing as much treble out of my SMGa...

I’ve got a pair of SMGa’s and here is what I’d recommend on the cheap. First, I’d try adding a bypass capacitor to your crossover. Simply add a cap valued a .01uf in parallel to the 50uf capacitor. You can choose one of many brands and they will all sound a bit different. The Sonicaps and Auricaps are a couple of good values and should not cost more than $5.00 to $18.00 each depending on which model you choose.

Another option would be to remove the metal tuning strip that covers a row of tweeter holes on the pole piece. This is not reversible but you can cover the holes back up again with some electrical tape if needed.

Upgrading your entire crossover and adding a pair of Linaeum tweeters will also get you there to a whole different level but we are talking about a major investment of time, effort and or course money.
