Hi everyone,
I'm planning to build a dipole design with the XG18 or Extremis as a mid-woofer.
I've a few questions about the drivers because there are some things where a can't find the answer.
The crosspoint with the woofers (2 x SLS12 probably) will be around 200-250Hz, so the limited xmax is not an issue.
I've read a lots of posts, articles and test from both drivers, but never an 1 to 1 comparison between the two.
The distortion and overall performance from both drivers is very well.
(almost the same)
I've also read some stories that the extremis will have some roughness, coloration and distortion above the 1,8-2kHz.
The tweeter will be a NEO3 PDR, so the cross point will be in that range.
So the big question is, which driver should it be, the extremis or the XG18 ?
