Interesting fullrange speaker from China

talaerts · 9th October 2011, 05:27 PM

Hi all,

A heads-up.
I stumbled upon this interesting 8" speaker while researching the just as elusive G.I.P. FR field coil speakers:

8 inch full range hifi speaker products, buy 8 inch full range hifi speaker products from alibaba.com

Price direct from factory $10-$70, minimum 6 pieces (then I assume it will be $70)

Frequency curve looks too good to be true:

comments, anyone?
Perhaps interesting for a group buy.

The cone is an obvious L.Cao clone. The motor assembly is different. The FR curve is, undoubtedly, too good to be true. Still, if the price is to be believed, then I think a group buy is in certainly in order, and you can count me in. I'm willing to waste $20 on a pair of 8" full range drivers!

...Unless, of course, Mr. Pass comes along and says, "yes, they do look good! I just bought them all.

"

Someone bites the bullet and makes the order; the rest of us send our contribution to that person and eagerly await our goodies. Who's trustworthy here?

You're right; I was thinking of the L.CAO with the alnico motor. So why is the price so low? Could they possibly be $10 each?
