Depends on what you want to use it for.

It is designed for a sealed cabinet and to produce mid-bass. So you still need a woofer because the lower end of the Eminence is a little high.

It is not an expensive driver and as such will not likely compete with better and more expensive drivers.

that´s what i thought , i was looking for a woofer 90-92db with 150-200w

Loren42 · 7th September 2011, 04:02 PM

What are you trying to make?

What is your budget?

lduarte1973 · 7th September 2011, 04:17 PM

2 sets of home speakers active minidsp , mids 92 db tweeters 93 db (i already have those) , my budget for 4 wooffers is 400$

Loren42 · 7th September 2011, 04:45 PM

Can you tell me what drivers you have so far?
[p]
Is there a specific size for the woofer?

Why 2 woofers per enclosures?

since i have 2 active subs , i wouldn´t need anything bigger than 8"

2 sets of speakers - 4 "towers" 3 way

SPH-102KEP - Monacor high-tech midrange speaker 8 Ohm - Europe Audio
mid is 88db

810921 - Peerless 1″ tweeter - Europe Audio
tweeter 91db

Go to this woofer ? : 22W/8534G00 - Scan-Speak 8,5 inch woofer fibre glass cone - Europe Audio
The choice is very limited if you don't like paper, the upper mid is keyvlar, and you have a limited budget.

You have sub, why don't you go to a simple 2 ways ? 3 ways is not necessary in your case. If you like new exploration in audio... You can do something as an OB speaker to cover 150-20kHz. Crossover frequency 1500/2000Hz.
The baffle : Dipole protos
Or a MTM : Dipole Main Panel

Note you can always do your 3 ways if not happy.

i like those scanpeak , or the visaton gf200 i have 2 of these already

GF200 - Visaton 20 cm (8 inch) High-End woofer with double voice-coil - Europe Audio

jerome69 · 8th September 2011, 11:49 AM

It's a very good choice ! You can do something

just buy two 2 GF200 more if you want bigger ?

I forgot the question in the thread, yes you can use the eminence for home use as midrange.
