Re: Back from Christmas.


I wouldn't hesitate to use these woofers as a mid range, and they play very high, as to eliminate the need for a expensive tweeter to match with it. Thank the phasing dusk cap for that.. I'm not sure it's actually classified as a phase plug, but it's close.

As for the tweeter, I'm using the Dayton DC28F-8 “Silky”, the unshielded one. I'd give it 4 stars, but could be better.

Depending on the rest of your drivers in that 3 way, and whether it's budget orientated, I would look at using the W5-1685 5 in. underhung driver from TB, although it's not in stock at PE yet. That, and the 6.5 in. driver look like mean business and I would LOVE to hear them. The w5-704 will do a great job as a midrange, but if you had high standards, I'd look other places. They suit me great though, for my room. =)
