8 inch Midbass

What drivers is it that you saw on PE from Dyn? They dont carry them. Madisound also only has parts, not the full drivers. If youve stummbled upon pricing somewhere and think they are 'low cost' then your wealthier than I and should Definately give them a listen.

my thoughts exactly!

I did a little search for midbass drivers that would fit your need. Sounded like the Peerless XLS is one choice, and the other the Adire Extremist 6.8. But had good reviews when played with a seperate midrange, like yourself. The Peerless is the more popular choice, but its being discontinued, so will get harder to find.

Finding XlS 8 is hard, nigh impossible anymore. Even if he gets some, he'll need an EQ to make good use of them. They aren't built for IB, so a bit of eq work is needed to get a good response from them. They aren't a plug and play mid, in any respect. I almost had pair a week ago, 1 person got in ahead of me. The extremis is a good mid, albleit such smaller than the xls.

My guess would be he saw the Dynavox clones:

Either that, or he was thinking of another brand and just mistyped.

Yeah lol I was thinking of Dayton drivers. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=295-366

Dynaudio is def not on the cheaper end.

I have the rockford fosgate 360.2. It has 31 bands of EQ per channel.

The Dynaudio MW 172 looks like a nice driver for my application too.
