hi all,
anyone of you familiar with dyn's home speakers? i just come across with a pair of old version 17W75 midbass woofers (4ohm). i know these old 17W75's had been used in many old Dynaudio home speaker models, including the Contour 1 and Compound 3. the current Audience 52SE uses the new verion 17W75 (with convex dust cap and aluminum cast basket), which looks just like an MW160.
my question is: will the old version 17W75 be a good replacement for the MW160 in the 240MKII set (to be used in car audio of course)? will it sound better or worse than the MW160? by comparing the tech spec and frequency response curve, the 17W75 looks better than the MW160. but construction wise, the MW160's aluminum cast basket is better than the 17W75's iron basket tho. so what do you guys/gals think?
