I have used the eton 4" mid.. Great mid, i would use it again. Its one of the deepest at 2.6+"'s though. I have always been a fan of the morel stuff, always seems to impress.

Most 4" mids are 2-2.25"s deep.. The scans are a little narrower..

If you want something really narrow, and are ok with crossing the midbass/midrange over around 800hz, you could go to a dome midrange like a dyna or the morel dome. something like this: http://www.morel.co.il/car/component...nge/cdm54.html

Best 4" I have heard out of the car market is actually IMO the old RF Power 4". Now you wanna talk about a driver as deep as it is wide.... :eek:

are those the same ones that are in your brothers Daytona?

Dukk, those were very very nice mids... kind of wolfs in sheep's clothing!

I've come accoss a really good deal on CDT eurosport 4" mids ($150 cad shipped). they just might do the job for now. I'm trying to get some industry contacts on the 4" revelators (scans) but no luck yet... they would be perfect!!

any thoughts on the CDT compared to Etons, morel and scan-speaks?

Revelators are crazy!!

Know what I'd like to see in a car? A pair of Manger bending wave drivers. Whooeee!! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

I have a set of high end Audax 4" sitting on the shelf going to waste. Don't remember the model number but they were pretty penny back in the days when I got them....... like $300 to $400 for ea driver. It's a home audio driver. So long story short, don't forget to check out Audax.

They can handle the power and sound extremely lifelike. I've never questioned not using those in whatever setup I've had. I highly recommend picking up a pair on Ebay. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Here is a really bad pic of one along with my FNQ tweeter:

I agree with Tom - Audax should always be kept in mind. They have such a range of drivers from dead cheap to high end that you can literally choose how nice a driver you want to afford [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

When I look at 'home' mids my short list always winds up being Morel, Seas, Eton, Audax.

Mr. Marco 08-07-2003 07:13 PM

Tom,
Shoot me the model number and a price and we can work somethng out.

thanks,
Marco
