8" Midbass Drivers
 

So my Kicker RMB8's have bit the bullet.
What would you guys suggest for 8" midbass.

Couple of things be for you fire off ideas:
1) They must be shallow (no more than 2.5" deep)
2) They must be able to handle 175Watts RMS

Thanks

Kicker Comps?

I'm interested in the answers to this thread too... I could definatly use a couple of shallow 7-8" midbass drivers :)

are you actively crossing them over? or using the XO's that came with the set? because that would greatly affect which drivers you could use...

Mark

The RMB8's that I am using are not part of a comp set.
They are strictly Midbass, 61hz-250hz.
Actively crossed using my Alpine PXA-H701.

I think thats answers the questions so far, any more?

$92 a pair here :D

Thats pretty hard to do...

Rainbow W200
Aura NSF8
a bunch of Morels are 2.7" deep
Illusion Audio ND8 if you can find them

thats all I can think of

i think you'll be happy with the Morel 8's. i love mine. however, i doubt they will stand up to the type of use that would kill a pair of rmb8's...

I think it was a defect from the get go.
One of the RMB8's works great and gets plenty loud, the other gets a certian volume, and seems to dead short. Puts the amp into protection.

Its hard to explain, I never crank up my tunes, 22 on the volume max (full tilt is 35)
gains are only like half way, no clipping (i have checked with a scope)
but its still strange.
I'd just like to replace them, i'm leaning towards the SSMB8 since i know it will handle the power and they are nice and shallow.

I just wish Focal made a set of 8" midbass drivers in the KP series (I have the 100KP for my highs right now)

Well I know that ain't true! ;)
