You're right. Most of those "buyout" drivers are those made for an OEM that has gone out of business. The intended purchaser specified electro-mechanical specs and Eminence used one of their existing frames and magnet structures to base the driver on. So naturally, they're pretty close to models stocked by Eminence, just slightly different T/S specs. The 8" or 10" units will probably make wonderful midrange drivers. Let us know if you try 'em out!
