[QUOTE="thylantyr, post: 2375084, member: 560358"] Random 1. Who wants to pay huge dollars for a special midrange with dedicted servo amplifier ? I'm sure someone will, but not me. Take a $50 mid, design special electronics {more $$$}, design a special amplifier {more $$$} and you have to sell all this as one complete package. Is there a market for this? You can probably build a company around this idea and sell it to dumb consumers regardless if it works or not. lol 2. There are low distortion, high quality midrange drivers on the market with without servo, and it's much cheaper plus you can connect it to any amplifier of your choosing. Win win situation. 3. Quality midrange drivers {not midwoofers} only have a few mm of linear stroke, cone excursion is low as you play higher frequencies. If cone excursion is low, then the quality rises by default. You can get low distortion sound out of cheap drivers by operating them at reduced output. Look at headphone drivers, ultra cheap, high quality sound at certain SPL levels. 4. Line array solutions are probably a better solution to getting low distortion midrange output. Take a cheap midrange, it has the potential for high quality sound if you operate it at reduced SPL.
