We enter a complicated region as the lower driver we go the drivers could be used for different purposes and it is very hard to generalize. A 10-incher might be MF driver and LF driver. In my past I experimented with few MF 10-inchers, including some...

Well, the game with a “better” 10" bass driver is over. After years of mind looking for the 10” light-coned, papered 20Hz drivers with higher sensitivity and after a month of quite active searching for such a driver I concluded that such a driver jut...

Haralanov,
Here some raw cements of my on it, without any particular order of importance….
1) Sand damping it beautiful, it is well-recognized, but you do pay cost for it, in your case the cost is space. Sand is very little compressibl...

[quote user="Chirag"]Outside of the already constructed bass towers, is there a reason you are looking exclusively for 10" drivers? I have heard a pair of stacked 15" Lambda's on each side supplementing/providing bass to lower midbass under som...

Hi Greg,linkSearch the site and you'll find that Ulf has created a upper bass horn using the aforementioned TAD 1201's.I also own a pair still in boxes waiting for the weather to warm up enough for me to start some enclosures and horns for.My origina...

Hello again,I've found four Scan-Speak 25w/8565-01 and possibly two -00 for sale at a good price.I'm triamping as of today and hope it's a good idea to start with the four and perhaps add more when I can afford it.- Do you think the 01 version would ...

Playing with B-2 power amp I made an experiment and instead of loading to it the MiniMe Bass section I loaded the B-2 with Macondo’s bass arrays. I made add-hog attenuator and coil to EQ MiniMe MF with Macondo’s bass and gave some listening. It w...

@N-set I was replying to pauls comment about giving up on blending passive radiators and trying to say I was surprised how effortless the 8565 integrates upwards into the tannoy but integrating down into another channel there is no hope. I think the ...

I too want a monitor speaker to play with, especially for amplifier experimentation.I put another 4" Fostex in a sealed "box" (globe actually) and crossed it over at 150hz to one SS 25w/8565 on the side. Wishful thinking? -Yes.About 88-90dB sensitive...

Hi Romy,So it is time to think about the bass output transformer in my DSET. My bass channel will be 8 x 25W/8565-00 each side set in a sealed box and will cover the frequency range below say 100Hz. These drivers can be wired anywhere between 1R an...

Forgive my complete ignorance in the speaker design, but if Edgar is right and the passive radiator has to be the last one, why not adding a sub with a passive? A sub with the same 8565 as a passive?
I hear you re the injection,...

Could keep it simple and fire straight down onto the floor. I think

maybe with a reflector, similar to Bruce Edgar's Seismic Sub...

Hi, Ronnie.
I do not know what happen with emails, you probably should not use the world Viagra in there… :-)
Anyhow, the 25w/8565-01 drivers are optimized for ported enclosures. I porously never had them and never used them, so I could not be help...

Hy Paul, I agree with your comment about the tone of the passive radiator if it runs to the mid range. This is the point of the SS8565. the combo of the crazy stiff cone and the special surround works phenomenally well to stay linear. It is even bett...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Make the full-range and then you will see where you are.
Still, I feel that for MF channels it is beneficial for do with a good DHT output
stage instead of 6C33C and perhaps it is a good idea to use DHT driver as well.
