Hi Guys, I am seriously thinking of building a nice 3-way system. One of the things I was hoping to get some input on is driver selection. I saw Jed's system which is absolutely wicked but the combination of drivers would probably put it out of my budget. I can pick a more expensive driver but it would need to be compensated
In short: the German DIY magazine HobbyHifi measured the driver this month, the distortion plots look pretty good. Except for the plastic basket I think this could be a very interesting driver.
You can use this driver between 600-4000 Hz, but all depends on your cross-over.
In order to avoid the cone break-up (starting one octave higher @ 8 kHz) and to prevent too much beaming which starts around 4 kHz you need to cross rather steep at 4 kHz.- Bottom

Thanks for the link!
Yes, I was figuring LR4 as Low-pass function.
Also the plastic chassis is deceiving, like you say.
But would you have the link for this test on HobbyHifi?
Thanks!

Since no test are available on the net concerning the subject about 830987, could it be possible for you tu scan this test from Hobby Hifi?
My favorite was Peerless 4" 830881 but it has been discontinued.
So I was looking for an equivalent.
Thanks
