Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site

somehow i missed that moment in macondo development when you introduced S3 as a low mid driver so this came as a surprise to me - what i remember is that you didn't write so favourably of S3 back in 2004 due to its ceramic magnet. but it's good to see that you find a good use of it as it's obviously so much cheaper than S2 these days, if you are lucky to find a pair.

what is the final horn & crossover frequencies you've settled down, and what are the realistic thoughts on the lowest crossover frequency S3 can handle in the domestic conditions in the dedicated le cleach horn, say 200hz or little less, with very low power into it (not more than 2-3w). i'm asking because i'm seeking for a driver for 300-1500 (or so) range ideally, it seems that apart from usual suspects like JBL 2482 or EV DH1 there's not much left, and i'd love to see S3 able to dive just a tiny bit lower than it seems it  normally can.

upper midrange is another topic but out of curiosity, do you still find S3 as handycaped at that range as you've thought back in 2004? i assume if it wouldn't be, than there would be no any basis left for S2 hype....
