Home Vintage Asylum

Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

Re: My speaker design philosophy

On the opposite end of the spectrum are the single driver people. Although some use a helper super tweeter and even a subwoofer the general theory is keep the crossover away from the frequncies where the ear is most sensitive.

I noticed that Peerless now makes a fairly widrange 8" woofer model 830884 with shorting rings that looks quite good on paper (execpt for the 89db@1w/1m efficencey which is just OK). I've read a post on the speaker asylum that it can work with 6db crossovers with the right tweeter (buy you'd probably want a Zobel). What do you think? (See link below.)
