is it possible to use a pair of car tweeters as headphone speakers? I have an aiwa hp-x223 headphone set, and the original right driver died; since then i have been putting other speakers i can't get my hands on (aiwa wants me to send the whole thing back for $26.95; i don't want to do that). car tweeters i have found have the frequency range & sensitivity i want, but not enough impedence. would it work anyway, or am i being absurd?

if you can get the range out of a tweeter, then yes, it can be used as a headphone driver.

i have often toyed with the idea of using a pair of 3.5" combination mid/tweeter speakers as headphones. my 6.75" combination speakers sound AWSOME when held near my head, but my arms get tired, and im sure my neck would too.

but what if the source is 30 ohms, and the speakers are 4 ohms?
