Paper coned woofers selection help please...

[Guest]

I liked the sound of the paper woofer of the German buyout. So much so that I want to do a nice two way setup. I want a high SPL driver. Preferably 91db or higher. I want low distortion throughout the frequency range with no energy storage problems. Crossover around 2000hz or less. I want low bass in a sealed box. An F3 of 60hz would be fine. Money isn't an issue but the less expensive the better as long as they are quality drivers. All suggestions welcome. Thanks, Paul

How 'bout a Fostex FF225K?

Peerless have anything for you?

That's a tall order for any woofer. Here's about as close as I know of.

Scan Speak 18W/4531G00. $210 each....

That's a very nice looking driver. I'm going to go model it real quick :-).

Scan Speak very nice sounding but has not the efficiency you're looking for. Also you have to like the typical pronounced mid bass. Results can be very good.

Been looking at some of those PHL drivers, they are high SPL. Any comments?

Got the page and design finalized...
