[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8653066, member: 675210"] Ok so after reading and suggestions from others on speaker choices for an active front stage, ScanSpeak and other drivers come up very often as well as selecting drivers on Madisound.com. After reading the specs of the mid drivers and looking at the prices PER SPEAKER and how expensive they can be, I decided to keep looking and looking and looking. I have by no means ruled out the ScanSpeak drivers or the Satori drivers but rather wanted to see what else could work. I have been looking at the Punch Pro PPS4-6 for a long time and I am curious why I would choose say the, Let's say the ScanSpeak 18M/4631T over the Punch Pro PPS4-6? The ScanSpeak - $212 per driver - Sensitivity 92db @ 2.83V/1M The Punch Pro - $59 - $89 per driver - Sensitivity 92.5db @ 1W/1M With their specs and power handling being similar I would imagine BOTH drivers can get pretty loud with decent power. I just don't see where spending three times as much on a single driver is going to be noticeable in a car... or am I wrong? Honestly, the only way I see them being a justified purchase is if they just sound that much better then the Punch mids. Like Creative 3" stereo computer speakers to my Samson Media O*N*E 5a speakers different. Optimal install vs Optimal install of course. Has anyone done an unbiased comparison of similarly spec'd less expensive to more expensive drivers yet? Is anyone out there in possession of these two specific drivers willing to compare them for us? [/QUOTE]
