[QUOTE="SkizeR, post: 8710917, member: 633600"] Also, the cones arent made out of *heavy* fiberglass. Its light. Pro audio speakers are as efficient as they are due to their low MMS (low moving mass) and low CMS (tight suspension). These two, along with cone area determine sensitivity. This is how pro audio speakers are made to be loud, with the drawback of not being able to play low. The reason these arent good for a sound quality oriented install is partially because they cant play low, but also due to the super cheap design. The motor is most likely some ******** off the shelf design that has nothing to it, and the dustcap/cone/surround design have nothing done to make sure that frequency response and distortion is kept in check. Remember, the cone material itself doesnt determine if something sounds good or not. Its not even a super large factor. It mostly just determines MMS and the drivers targeted passband due to cone breakup. And the problem with raw drivers is that they are typically not designed for IB applications (like a door), and will fall flat on their face at lower frequencies without a sealed or vented enclosure. They also do not withstand the environment very well. [/QUOTE]
