Default Looking for 6" midrange.

Response all the out to around 10 KHz before rolling off, 4 ohms, around 95 db @ 2.83/v/1m, Qts around 0.3 or so, and at least a few mm of xmax. High pass will be LR2 via 0.5 Qtc to a large (15"+) vented or TL woofer, low pass will be LR2 around 2.5 KHz to a sensitive dome with enough guts to handle the power, haven't quite decided which one yet.

..Any ideas?

If only Pyle wasn't always such a shot in the dark..

Pyle Pro PM6DC 6.5" 400 Watt Midrange
Pyle Pro PDN65 6.5" High Power High Performance Midbass
Pyle Pro PM65CP 6.5" Midrange
Pyle Pro PMN65FP 6.5" Midrange

Someday, they'll all have sketchy T-S params underneath cutout info in PDF's on their crappy website. Until then, no idea.

Paul,

Since you are on line can you tell me the Sonogram software you use to measure the drivers/speakers directivity. Thanks.

BHTW,

I use PHL drivers they are quite good with high efficiency around 95dB, they have a number of midrange 6-7", I am not confident it will go all the way to 10kHz. There are number of models available at E-speakers,

Welcome to E-Speakers.com - Very High End Loudspeaker Components

PHL 1120 may fit your bill.

Unfortunately no cheaper high sensitivity domes with 4 Ohm.

Default T/S specs for Pyle Pro PDN8 PDN65

The High Efficiency Speaker Asylum posted a few T/S specs for the Pyle Pro PDN8 PDN65.

If anyone on diyAudio has measurements please post. The speaker pictures look interesting for their $37 - $45 price point.

================
A car audio website posted this T/S data for the Pyle PDN8 copied from the datasheet enclosed in the shipping box. There were a few positive comments on the PDN8 from actual owners. I need an Fs ~40Hz, so the PDN8 is not an option.

Pyle Pro PDN8 8" Mid-bass ( ~$45)

8'' Kevlar Reinforced Paper Cone
Cloth Multi-Roll Surround
2'' Flat Wound CCAW High Temp Voice Coil
Die-Cast Aluminum Frame
Aluminium Phase Plug
High Density Neodymium Magnet
500 Watts Rms/1000 Watts Peak Power
4 Ohm Impedance
Sensitivity: 94 db (1W-1M)
Frequency Response: 90Hz-10KHz

F0 (hz) - 100
QES - 0.58
QMS - 8.2
QTS - 0.55
VAS (cuFt) - 9
SPL (db) - 94
Pyle Pro PDN65
6.5" paper cone/ 1.5" voice coil
Die cast frame/ aluminum phase plug
Neodymium magnet
4 ohm
94db/watt
===============
Bruce Edgar
I recently purchased a PDN65 from parts express to see how it would perform as a midrange horn driver. The spec sheet gives the following TS parameters: Fs=105Hz, Qms=8, Qes=0.55, Qts=0.53, VAS=6.5cuft, Sens=93dB, and maxpwr=800w.

Do you mean "isobaric" ?

What's the benefit for midrange in such configuration?
