Tymphany DFM-2544R00 1.75" CD

[ErnieM]

Have a pair of these on the way for use from 2khz up on an 18 Sound XT120. They tested very well in VoiceCoil. Just as good or better than the Italian brands for much less coin.

We'll see if the production models are the same.

The DFM-2535R00 is pretty good. It looks to be the better choice between the two and less expensive. I do not have the newer 2544R00 to compare

I may push the crossover lower in a high output prosound speaker. Went for the larger diaphram in this case. For home use I would consider the DFM-2535R00.

..its not just the larger diaphragm, mass is substantially lower than the smaller diameter driver. Also, linear excursion is 3 times the smaller diameter driver. Extension on both ends is also better. Pitty linearity isn't great, and potentially difficult to achieve with analog - which makes it a particularly good canidate for DSP.

On the right horn/waveguid, corrected, this driver should deliver a high degree of detail/clairity with that very low Mms vs Sd.

DSP for sure. This particular box will be a tri-amped with a QSC PLD 4.5 with 2x15's, one mounted on each side wall, 3x8's on the front for midbass, one horn on the front and back with a variable L-pad for the back horn. Looks like it'll be all BMS cones.

Live instrument, keyboard, anything monitor.

Played around with it for a bit. Excellent sound once eq'd (not optional). Can't see myself spending more for a device in this size class.
