Do anyone have any experience with these woofers? They seem to have pretty good bandwidth. Espesially these two:

Inductor said:You want to use a 50's Hz/Fs as a woofer? How, with a horn? I would give a try with the first speaker as a mid(/woofer) and/plus a sub(/woofer). It looks good on paper.
More for midwoofer duty. I use a subwoofer.
The interesst for the extended bandwidth is to be able to cross around 1800 hz to a small 1000hz tractrix horn coupled with a B&C DE25, to match dispersion.
I don't want to distract you from your projects but also test (no xover on the woofer, or a first order for BSC) it against this tweeter at 4K xover as (it) is here, with this cap. (1. order):

or this should work fine (more margin for xover):

AndrewT said:Precision Devices seem to somehow add 1mm to the Xmax value for both the driver you listed.
The one that is listed as 2.6mm (12MH25) may be nearer 1.6mm when measured by the method other manufacturers use.
This is a mid driver don't expect it to perform loud down to 60Hz.
Hmm, I see. 1,6mm is a bit too low. What exacly happens when you run a driver out of xmax? Cant be as bad as running out of xmech...
How about the latter driver? Will it be able to go as high as 1,8 khz, and do it good? Kind of hard to tell without off axis measurements I assume?
You said you have another woofer (as a sub), so what's the problem with this one as a mid?Defo said:

From my simulations it runs out of xmax at around 75 watts, and 114db. Im sceptical to that, as my spl requirements are quite high, and I dont want to run my subwoofer as high as 100hz.
There are a few drivers that can go w/high SPL at those freq. 97/100dB (10", 12") like Volt, Selenium, ask if you need help. A new (very) small driver that needs some testing is the Beyma 6P200Nd. Look also at Beyma SM108/95dB (10") and 8LW30/96dB (8"). Another member also mentioned the Precision PD.8BM20/92dB (8").
