^ I am running the Dyn MW170. I like it a lot as a midbass driver it has tremendous range. It is not a good choice for subwoofer IMO (not that much excursion, needs a fair amount of box volume to go low and loud), I have eaten 2.5 (one is on the way to dumpsterland) in 2 years but I play it friggin loud with less box volume then they really want.
The Dyn does give me up front bass and is one of the better midbass drivers, but as a sub I think there might be better choices… and I don’t think it will thump or pound like you would want when showing off. The Aliante 8” ($$$$) might be OK it blends well, requires very little box volume (you could even vent it if you really wanted to... but who would want to vent any woofer...) and is a ‘fast’ driver and is designed to be a true sub, the JL-8s mentioned($) are not bad, but they do not go high at all and don’t blend as well as the other two but they can hit pretty well. I have not heard the W7-8 but it could be interesting in this application (probably too deep though) [ February 15, 2005, 04:03 PM: Message edited by: JohnVroom ] |
OZ Audio 200L
Although finding one these days may prove challenging. |
From what I've actually used and liked:
Image Dynamics 8" - very nice Rainbow mini-sub - crazy crazy 6.5" little driver [img]smile.gif[/img] I had a set of the dyn 7" many years back but never got to use them=, so can't comment. But I did own a set. [ February 15, 2005, 10:46 AM: Message edited by: dawgsbreakfast ] |
JL 8W7 - love mine, sounds like 2 12 types S. thats at 450 watts
|
8W7
Elemental Designs 8A, or 9Kv2 |
THE OZ SUBS WERE NICE BUT DONT THEY NEED LIKE A 2-3 CUB SEALED BOX?
|
Canton made an excellent 8 but it needed over a cube vented to get right down there.
I loved the output of the RE8 I have but it was too flubby on the top end over time. Believe it or not, MTX 5000 series 8 from a couple of years back. Nice little woofer. But my favorite that I have tried or own is the MTX 5500 8. How it would work in that tiny sealed box though I cannot comment. |
WHAT ABOUT A BLACK GOLD 8?COME ON DAVE YOU KNOW YOU LOVE THEM!
