The 8531 is an awesome driver, but if it were used in the 1801, it wouldn't be an 1801 anymore!!! I think Dave would agree with both of those points.-Paul
Who's abandoning the W18?WEEZ
Lin...yeah, I had read that. But I thought I read somewhere else that the 1801c would be offered in addition to the 1801b...can't find where.. WEEZ
These mid-woofers used in this configuration have excellent bass performance and smooth and detailed midrange.

I like the SS 18W-8531 paper cone speaker, in fact I am using 16 of them in my new Selah Audio line arrays
Anybody who's biased against a Scan 8531 because of an impedance curve obviously spends their time pontificating instead of working to gain any relevant experience.
I know some "purists" say that the 800hz impedance glitch means that the cone has some break-up at this point which means it isn't pistonic up to the point of xo, which is why some don't like it or choose others.
