I did some search queries and came up with squat. So I will put it out there. Has any one compared the original GB Neo 8 to the newish GRS nock off at Parts Express?
Oh, where can I find plans for LS6 - LS9 ? I would like to have a look so I can make an informed decision.
Thanks for any help....

I've only looked at the GRS 3" & 10" drivers so far, and they're fairly similar, but not exact. The GRS-3 models have a little higher distortion in the mid band but are overall fairly nice.
The GRS 10 has a rising response but is a fairly solid replacement so long as you update the crossover to compensate.
I think a few people looked at ghe GRS 8 clone, but i don't remember seeing a whole lot about it overall.
I did start a comparison thread a while back for the GRS Neo 3 that might be worth checking out:

Ok. I really didn't think for a moment they would be exact. But at least close. Danny would know. If I know anything then I would know he will keeping a keen eye on this right?
How about the LS plans?

I like your avatar. From the 60s Disney movie of which I'm having a hard time remembering LOL.

My measurements start here on page 10, but there's useful info through the whole thread.

They are suppsedly in some sort of copyright trouble for the 10" drivers, but i guess its atill ongoing as they're still being sold, plus it's not like BG is bothering to make/sell any more.
Danny is working on developing a larger driver with a company (i thought it was Radian, but that was incorrect on my part. Its a name I can't easily remember or pronounce.. lol) but he's working on a large custom planar driver design that will eventually take the Neo10s place. But we're a long ways off from that.
Someone is having a pair of Line Force made with the GRS 10" models, tho it wil likely require an updated crossover.

It's actually something i drew, he's my meerkat character, hence my username. :P

Character? What game? :D
I haven't participated in tabletop gaming for decades, but I still have all of my AD&D books (first and second edition), modules, lead figures (I still have my adventuring party from the early '80s), etc.

He's just one of my many characters, tho more of a persona of sorts.
I've never really gotten into tabletob games sadly. My brain immediately ceases to function on the few occasions I've tried.
If it's more complicated than Candyland, I am immediately lost. :lol:
No idea why, but that's just how my brain seems to work. :scratch:
I do have lots of friends into D&D tho, and I enjoy hearing the silly stories they end up cooking up.

Maybe it's just coincidence but that character looks strikingly similar to one I remember as a kid. :?
No answer to where to get the LS plans.
