I've tried all day to get these Roombas to clean around the house. Any ideas?

At 111 dB @ 1 watt, I'm guessing they just blow the cobwebs out not sweep them up.

Hook a couple 2000 watts across each of them and play Black Sabbath and they will kick up some dust !!

Hi John, these are 2446H drivers. 2" throat compression driver with a 4" titanium diaphragm. Stan Ricker used these as midranges, but not with horns. He took the back off and used it as a direct radiator. What am I going to do with them? No idea but I'll think of something fun. They were cheap enough and I've always wanted a 30 lb. tweeter.

Those are excellent and would be fun to play with if I didn't have to pay for them. I think a few pro 15s could get close to the sensitivity. There are several decent driver and horn buyouts over at Parts Express
