I'll have to agree with Twistd, thank you for your time.

I've been playing around with these for a few years now and love them. They are a very vesatile and easily implemented midrange. The high frequency extension is well enough to use with a tweeter (given a proper application), but they really open up a variety of tweeter options with your ability to pretty much HP your tweeters wherever you want.

Best setup so far was a 3-way with Midbass up to 400, Auras from there till 6500, and the tweets handling the rest. Worked great for me.

Oh, and Madisound is still selling them and actually a newer version was/is supposed to be available as an improvement was deemed necessary for wire connection purposes.

looks like a good computer speaker,but small for a car A?

 

[Tirefryr 10+ year member]

Worked very well in my car. A pair per side. No problems.

That makes sense, I found mine to be sort of weird to wire to, they werent labeled real well but its not exaclty for your average plug and play sorta situation anyways.

But these are great little wonder speakers, three cheers for aura! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

I was looking at the TB 2.5" midrange for a way to bring my front stage up and was going to put them in the dash of a PT Cruiser. Do you think these would work better running off the hu power and crossed from 400 up? I am not looking for any midbass out of them just something to supplement the midrange and highs, I have too much midbass and everything seems to get lost and ends at about the middle to the top of the dash.

What about using these as midrange drivers for a active 3 way setup?

thats what tyrfryr suggested, and thats waht he did.

he said

"have a midbass speaker play from (i suggest 60hz) to 600hz, then use the aura from 500hz to 6500hz, and then a tweeter that will handle the rest.

he also suggested having TWO OF THESE per side. (they are 8ohm, so run each pair down to 4ohm)

like i said, they are not meant for midbass //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

just recieved mine, kind of disappointed but i've only tried them free air. We will see how they do tomorrow.

 

[Tirefryr 10+ year member]

They will require an enclosure.

They are if you use them for their intended purpose.

which is?

 

[Tirefryr 10+ year member]

Read the instructions.

actually i was in the middle of an install, so no reason to keep em clean if I was fiberglassing........Usually armchair installers do not understand that, so i'll forgive you.

Oh and Tirefyr is correct, the bass shakers work exactly how they are mean to. In fact, Aura sold many to novelty themepark movie theaters to install under seats for extra sensory effects during explosions and such.
