Hi Bigfishe - with all of the development work the he, and his team, have been putting into design and development I'm just going crazy to try out some of the new Mark Audio drivers. I'll need to go over to his site and take a look at which one to put on my wish list for an OB - most likely to go into a FAST configuration.

I'm not up on the FAST method
mark audio sounds nice but I only have 1.5 watts per
To play with

1.5 watts? - THAT makes things a bit of a challenge Hmmmmm. Even the most efficient drivers I can think of running on that amount of limited power will get to around a 100db's max and while that is loud it will play the devil with dynamics. A good horn tweeter comes to mind but then things start getting messy with how high can you take the woofer vs. how low can the horn go.

That's what I had in mind.Waiting
for a phone call from Jon

I might be able to run my f1 clone if I get it up to snuff.
That should give more options at ten watts per.

In that case Seas Exotic?

I have recently been using the Fostex FE-126E in my set-up and it works really well. I think a smaller full range driver would be an advantage, it does not need to play low and should extend higher than a bigger full range driver.
