Audison Prima AP 1 26 mm Tweeter with Crossover — 150W Peak, 4Ω, Acoustic Lens for OEM Integration
The Audison Prima AP 1 is a 26 mm dome tweeter component with a neodymium magnet and a compact dedicated passive crossover. Its wide-roll surround gives high efficiency and a low resonance frequency, and a built-in acoustic lens corrects the 10–13 kHz response problems caused by restrictive OEM grilles. It handles 150W peak power at 4Ω, and it is the tweeter used in Audison's Prima component systems.
Key Features
- 26 mm diaphragm with a wide-roll surround for maximum efficiency and reduced resonance frequency
- Neodymium magnet with low-carbon plates for a compact motor and linear sound at high levels
- Acoustic lens that tunes the in-car response in the 10 kHz – 13 kHz range
- APCX TW compact passive crossover supplied, with a 0 dB / +2 dB attenuation switch
- OEM-friendly fast-on connectors on the crossover
- Developed with the Klippel suite; 150W peak power, 4Ω
Technical Highlights
The dome is made of Tetolon fibre and driven by a 20 mm copper-clad aluminium wire (CCAW) voice coil. Frequency response is 2 kHz – 20 kHz, and the 150W peak rating applies with the supplied crossover (high-pass at 3.5 kHz, 12 dB/octave). Use the crossover with the tweeter at all times.
Ideal For / System Fit
- Upgrading the tweeters in an OEM or aftermarket component system
- OEM tweeter positions where a grille affects the highs
- A-pillar or dashboard installs that need a compact, easy-to-tune tweeter
A tweeter only: it needs a woofer or midrange driver and an amplifier, and fitment depends on the vehicle, so professional installation is recommended.
Installation Note
Set the crossover switch to +2 dB if the tweeter sits behind an OEM grille, or 0 dB if it has a clear line to the listener. Mounting accessories are supplied; check the position and depth for your vehicle.
What's Included
1 x pair of Audison Prima AP 1 tweeters with APCX TW crossovers (confirm the mounting accessories with your supplier)
Precautions
- Always connect the tweeter through its supplied crossover
- Match amplifier power to the 150W peak rating to avoid damage
- Confirm mounting position and fitment for your vehicle before buying
- Professional installation is recommended
