I've been waiting for some pics of this thing, and I have to tell you I'm not disappointed at all. This is currently my favorite price/performance IB driver of all time (so far...) based on what I've seen.I've been saving up for something JUST like this, and I've got to say this (while actually holding a fistful of cash for dramatic effect)... I'd already have ordered at least a 4 pack, if not 8 if shipping prices were not so freakin ridiculously stupid (I'm in Canada).Now this might be a stupid question and a huge imposition, but I'm wondering if there is any possibility that these could be picked up instead of shipped (for a reasonable sized order of course). I have no idea where you are, but if you happen to be closer than the moon, I should be able to save at least a couple hundred bucks.Either way, congrats on a great lookin unit.
Maybe CSS is going to sell these up here in Canada.They use to sell Exodus Audio speakers.
Shouldn't dipole subwoofer have lightest cone possible, with high BL, like pro drivers?I noticed that all great subwoofers (exodus, dayton, lambda) have relatively low BL vs cone mass.It may be good for use with enclosures, but in dipole use such heavy cones will have huge kinetic energy.if going with these subs I see only one solution, keep adding more drivers until you don't see cone moving at desired output.I mean, if you push 271g cone even to half of rated 22-xmax, there is no way it can stop instantly.
Hi Kevin,I am considering trying to improve the quality of the bass in my open baffle application.I am torn between buying a better 15" driver than the one I have or going with multiple smaller drivers say four 10" drivers.Considering that the 10" drivers have a smaller inductance and may have more perceived speed, this seems like possibly a better way to go.On the other hand, I would like the 10s to go as low as a single 15, so I will need to EQ them.I got thinking along these lines after reading about the LS9s, which contain 12 6.5" speakers.Then I started thinking about the natural ultimate extreme of this idea, which would be a bunch of nano-particle sized speakers packed infinitely tightly into a rectangular panel.Do you have any thoughts about whether a single 15 or four 10s would be better for bass reproduction?
