Thanks Wayne!

I was planning on crossing it at 1.2 kHz with an Image Dynamics horn, so the breakup modes won't be a problem.

Also, like I mentioned in my particular app, it'll only be operating down to 60 Hz so I think distortion should be fine. This is one of the cleanest midbass drivers around. I think you can do better than it for the low bass, but it's still an impressive unit... Some of the lowest distortion figures around, twin copper shorting rings, magnesium cone, solid copper phase plug...

Pialigning the driver (or at least a similar alignment) really seems to offer the extension I need down to 60 Hz, with big time power handling, no loss in sensitivity... Shoudl be great!! Much better than running the weaker motor version in a sealed box... Bleh.

I was going to recommend this driver to Scott actually, the only thing that stopped me is it's $156 dollar price tag and it's 8 ohm impedance.

Adam
