[QUOTE="sundownz, post: 8334416, member: 549523"] Just a few things : 1) It's a 9" woofer (8.5" may be a better description, actually, based on the total OD) -- so, the spider will in fact be quite large compared to an actual standard sized 8" woofer 2) The surround design, cosmetically, looks like cheap crap woofers -- but when implemented the way DD did it does have the effect they desired where many other designs have no effect and are purely cosmetic. 3) Certainly nothing wrong with pushing forward on a bigger / better spider and surround for linearity Looks nice all-in-all to me from a soft part / frame design standpoint... price does seem a little steep considering it's nearly what an 8W7 costs -- but I have no doubt they will sell plenty of them. I do have to wonder why they went with such a low level of motor force in the design, though... QTS is very high at 0.80 which is odd considering DD typically suggests ported enclosures. [/QUOTE]
