Hi I am trying to find out more info about these tweeters. Does anyone know anything about them? I can not find an English site that has them. I can not find out any info on TEC either. This is the company that makes them right? Has anyone ever used them before?

Here is a link to one site I found where they can be purchased.

There are lots of planar tweets in the US that you can find info on. Myself, if I were going to deal with the directionality issues those drivers can present, I would just consider a real ribbon, though they are considerably more $.

Thanks for you input. I would love to use a real ribbon tweeter but do to my car and my placement options real ribbons are just too big. I need something with a real shallow mounting depth. And I have used the old infinity emit planars before and loved them (I still have them I thought they were broke but they both work great) But they just don't look the best. I do like the way theses looked and if they sounded good then I would strongly consider going with them.

thx for the post. I have read about them some and they do seem like they would be good but I do not like the way they look. for my install you will prob see the front of the tweeter. I would like something that looks a lil nicer then that

they make faceplates and I believe custom cloths although they might not fit the Neo 3. Might not solve your needs cosmetically but I thought I'd atleast mention it in case. All the planar/ribbon stuff I've seen in the states all looks like the BG stuff. So other brands might not even be consideration for you.
