[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 3460924, member: 549629"] Do you really believe your own drivel? Lets break down your 'example' shall we? Assuming same excursion performance (lets not stack the deck), the ten 8's would have approx 30% more displacement potential then the two 15's. Ooops? If you want to play the game of comparing unlike model drivers, so as to claim the 15's have more excursion potential (a cop-out btw), then you are ignoring silly little things like speaker efficiency (while comparing outputs, can you make a more elementary mistake if you tried?) and speaker Fs (something I thought we already schooled you on). Lastly, for those who actually are interested in knowing, you could build a subwoofer system that would be capable of reproducing a 20hz note, while utilizing a 3.5" speaker. How do I know? Because it was my first project to complete when I entered Installer Institute... uhm... 15 years ago. And now here I have kids, not much older than 15 years, trying to tell me they know more about what speakers can or cannot do, based upon their preconceived notioned of speaker cone diameters. Forgive me if I laugh. Would the 3.5" sub system have as much output as a 18" BTL off 10,000 watts? Uhm, no. But it certainly proves the point that cone diameter only plays so much of a role in useable frequency response, when dealing with subsonic freqs.
