DANGIT! I can't decide!! Driver for midbass duty on 3-way setup.

[bikinpunk 10+ year member]

Due to a problem with application I won't be able to use the Seas L18's I bought. Apparently they just weren't made for my door.

I've been spending 5 days so far looking for a good midbass driver. So far I've considered Dayton RS180, Kicker MRB8's, Dyn MW180, DLS UR6, Peerless SLS 7", among many others, but just can't "pull the trigger" on any.

What I need is something that will play in a well deadened, well sealed door. At this point I'd almost prefer moving away from DIY home audio drivers, and back to car audio drivers...something with a higher Qts (.5+) that was made to perform in doors. I'm looking for good response from 70hz-400hz, though it will likely be played from 80-300hz most of the time...just need that headroom though.

I'd like to try out the Legatia L6's, but I just don't have the money for new ones...I'm hoping someone here has some used ones they'd be willing to let go.

Restrictions: No larger than ~7" OD..I can work with I.D., but 7" outer is all my door panel can fit. Depth needs to be below 3.5".

Cliffs: Read Restrictions above.

I need help! help!!!!!

I left you a reply in your post.

I think they're too deep though. I can't do much more than 3" depth.

How much are you asking for them?

 

[bikinpunk 10+ year member]

I know some of you guys here should be able to suggest some drivers.

I've found the DD W6.5's are good? No idea how to buy them though, or even price.

Doesn't it anyway fit in with the other that you listed but the Mid out of the PG RSD set is a mid-bass monster!!

 

[bikinpunk 10+ year member]

hmmm, can it be bought as a single?

Now between the following:

ID cx64

DD w6.5 (lt, maybe?)

Dyn MW160

MBQ RVF 164

Any thoughts on those?

I've loved my TB W69-1042's

Check into the Tang Band Neo 6.5 subs. I've heard they're pretty sexy little buggers.

^ I actually looked into those. Think they're a little too deep.

use an mdf spacer //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Even still...

Man, I don't know...lol. I'm out of excuses. Guess I just don't like the Tang Band name...something about them turns me off. I can't explain it.

Any other suggestions?

they should change their name to poon tang band. then they might get some serious business from horny people.

ID is going to be too deep.

You guy individual drivers from 6spd.

Budget, I may have missed it

 

[bikinpunk 10+ year member]

I'd like to stay under $150...well under if possible. I don't care if they're used or not. I'd be willing to do $200 if they're VERY good...but I really need to be watching my $ since I'm getting married in less than a month.

ID is 2.8" depth. Link

*Changed my depth requirement...I can probably fit 3.5" using a 1/2" baffle.

It will still fit though.
