tweeter

Soprano sound source

A tweeter is a loudspeaker designed to reproduce high-frequency sounds, typically the treble range above 2,000 Hz.

In audio systems, tweeters work alongside woofers (which handle bass) to create full-spectrum sound.

The name comes from the high-pitched sounds birds make.

Separately, a tweeter is someone who posts on the social media platform formerly known as Twitter: She's a prolific tweeter with thousands of followers.
