hi Tom! - looks like a Chinese kinda knockoff of a Kappa12A with a funky surround and higher voice coil inductance (if the specs can be trusted)

hey Moray - never got the full story of why the hosting bill was not paid - it was a cool forum and the last refuge (so far) for Karlson discussion

The 8" / 16 ohm version looks more interesting for horn loading, posted on July 14, 2014 at 09:10:21

Perhaps as a push-pull pair. Any real life experience with this driver

true - the 12 should make a good Karlson driver. Can you think of a good project for the 8? - its motor strength is enticing - but Le relative to Re seems high to reach 5KHz (?)

not really other than some conjecture from Greg B. that perhaps James didn't want to fool with it anymore {?)
