Adire Audio Parthenon, used a new suspension made of metal that gave a constant spring force to the coil and also served as the VC leads. Would work great for a huge 3" coil 8.

That's just it on an extreme scale, it could be done much smaller and cheaper.

You would need an 8" basket and parts from an 8" sub with a 3" coil. Email truebass about buying parts from them.
