this speaker can be found for less than US$12 shipped. Its well made, and should sound very good in open baffle applications. In my little room sitting on another speaker without any baffle, cello, vocals, guitars, and slapped upright bass sound well balanced and excursion controlled on the bass track plus there's good details. I'm pleasantly surprised.

Buy a bunch more and array them
or home theater (if my Onkyo's protection circuit doesn't kick in from multiple ~4 ohm loads) - let GM pick up a pair.
here's a hefty 4ohm Boss 10" I bought for $19.99 shipped - it came with a nice metal grill and accurate T-S -IIRC Qt ~0.5
that's a solid metal phase plug under the garish chrome plastic ring - guess the ring is good to keep things from rubbing.
~2.5" voice coil

OK, this the 2nd time to this page and both times it lists $13 plus shipping unless I spend $35.

Thanks, but my experience with epay has been uniformly bad, so don't consider them anymore.
GM
would they sound worse in an array?
Probably would sound worse in an array due to comb filtering

??? Why me? I currently have no functioning sound system beyond a mono clock radio and an old RPTV with literally $6 6.5"/8 ohm 'whizzer' drivers and $0.50 1" paper tweeters. Its fairly comprehensive digital EQ program makes them sound much bigger, better though even at fairly high SPLs, so has a good compander ckt. too. I was stunned when I saw them.
10"? I only found 6.5", 8" here: Speakers | Boss Audio Systems
Interesting that there's a 6.5" and 6.5" 'high quality' version.
Regardless, how do yours perform and what do you fill in the top, bottom octaves with?

Quite awhile back we went through a spate of oval speakers, designs and one that worked surprisingly well was a dual vertically oriented 4" x 10" [RS 40-1297] short 'array' OB and there was a Metronome-like TL by GregB IIRC.

here's the 10" woofer with phase plug which on sale goes for $19..99 including delivery (at least when buying a pair) - it cost an extra 10 for the 8 ohm when I ordered. - -- could try two 6x9 on an open baffle

Yeah, that was a while back now! It wasn't really an array though, as the the lower driver was dewhizzed and lowpassed with a choke. I prefer point sources. Line arrays always have a peculiar sound to me.

I had to laugh. That's like saying 'my experience with shopping has been bad, so I'm not doing it anymore'
As the very satisfied recipient of more than 1000 ebay deals over 13 years, I suspect you aren't doing it right.
You do know that it isn't one company, right?
