AudioControl EPICPRO3NT Review: Specifications, Fitment and Comparisons

Quick summary: the buying decision

The EPICPRO3NT is a pair of 3-inch neodymium pro tweeters, rated at 140 W RMS / 180 W max at 4 ohm, covering 1,500 Hz – 20 kHz. It must be fed through a high-pass filter, and where you place and aim it has a bigger effect on the stereo image than almost any other choice in the system.

AudioControl EPICPRO3NT: what it is

The AudioControl EPICPRO3NT is a pair of 3-inch EPIC Pro neodymium tweeters rated at 140 W RMS (180 W max) and 4 ohm. With 105 dB sensitivity (2.83 V / 1 m) and a 1.5-inch voice coil, they are built for high output and far projection.

AudioControl's EPIC Pro speakers are pro-audio-style, high-efficiency drivers built for loud, far-projecting sound with low distortion at high volume. They are voiced to pair with AudioControl EPIC Series amplifiers and suit SQL and SPL builds where output matters.

Fitment: will it fit your car?

Measure the factory opening and the depth available behind it, including clearance to the window glass and its channel at full travel. The EPICPRO3NT needs 29.1 mm (1.14 in) of mounting depth and a 53 mm (2.09 in) cut-out. Small drivers are usually mounted in the dash, A-pillars or custom pods; a rigid, sealed mounting keeps them clean at volume.

Crossover, filtering and placement

They cover 1,500 Hz to 20 kHz and must be high-passed; with 105 dB sensitivity (2.83 V / 1 m) they will easily out-play most midranges, so set levels with care.

A-pillar or dash mounting usually gives the best stereo image; aim towards the opposite seat as a starting point and adjust by listening and measurement.

Amplification

At 140 W RMS (180 W max) and 105 dB sensitivity (2.83 V / 1 m), they need little power to play very loud; a high-passed amplifier channel, for example from AudioControl's EPICFOUR, is plenty.
