What can you guyz tell me about the Cardersound Nina? I can see that it's a four and a half inch something or other that's been eNabled.

I have a potential client who wants to know about its possible harmonious relationship with my wimpy little amp.

Hi Eric,

Nina is a small Olson-style front mouthed horn using FE126eN. Scott designed it for the entry level of his line. Efficiency on the order of 92.5-93 dB, horn lift covers off the BSC.

Similar horns here work well with our RH84 (4w) and our Scott-based El Cheapo variation (3.2 w) so unless your client has a HUGE room (mine is pretty big), or wants to play REALLY loud (it is a 120mm driver) your amp should work REALLY well. They do like an amp with a highish output impedance.

The double mouth version Tybone Mk 2, is an evolution of Saburo (Tybone Mk 1 was a Saburo), Nina can be considered a half-version of the Mk II.

The few pairs Jeff built were received very well.

Can i ask if this is a used set, or if Jeff is finally climbing out after the recent economic slump.
