Seas in Australia.

Andy G · 11th June 2009, 10:06 PM

For Aussies who didn't know already. Seems we have a new Seas dealer.

new prices too...

Andy G · 11th June 2009, 10:43 PM

I guess the question is how the prices stack up against importing them individually from whereever.

I haven't looked at that issue yet.

Hopefully they will be somewhat more reliable.

Hi Andy,
What do you think of the 10" SEAS H1305? I'm tossing up between it, Peerless 830668 or staying with an 8" Peerless 830868? I want to use it to 300Hz with an active LR 24 dB LP crossover.

I've never used the bigger Seas drivers, so can't really comment.. Sorry.

I thought John Woodhead was the Aussie dealer for Seas:

Anyway, he knows the Seas range inside-out so give him a call.

Thanks Andy!

Anyone got any experience with L22RNX/P ? let's say up to 1.5kHz ?

col · 3rd July 2009, 11:17 AM

I have experience with Seas L21RNX/P, which is pretty much the earlier version. They are awesome drivers, very tight punchy bass! Efficiency levels are a bit low, best to put 2 of them in one box. Also, I wouldn't push them too high as the aluminium cones don't like it and they start to scream :| There is a diagram for a notch filter to sort that out somewhere though. John Woodhead has got all that stuff.

Pictures of my Seas L21RNX/P boxes are here:
