Tiny mid comparisons

[Beau]

Has anyone done any comparison with the recent breed of tiny mids available?

Specifically Im talking about the scan discovery 10f, the vifa ne95 and the scan illuminator 12mu.

Thanks for your input

There's some data out there:

MarkK's IMD testing:

Zaph's blog has the 10F, (revisited) FR88, and the 12M in the small driver section:

I haven't seen project write-ups on the 10F - although I think I read that JohnK did some open baffle speakers. I just bought a pair of the 10F's before the Neo price hike. :B But it may be months before I get them operational. :cry:

Thanks for that.

I have dug up as much info as I could, seems they all have tradeoffs, the fr88 is one I forgot to list.
As far as I can see they all look fairly decent but my main concern is the rear radiation. Theyll be going in a dipole system and Id like as little masking as possible, Maybe Ill just have to bite the bullet and test a few pairs.
