Does any one here have experience with the Tangband w3-926's? How do they compare to the famous 871's? I just noticed them on the nuera site. they look simmilar to the 871's but a little cheaper and less pretty visually.

"Sound against the 871.
First I will say metal to soft dome.That in all almost sums it in easy terms"
which is metal? 871?

I prefer the square frames to the round with small drivers. All though not as robust & requiring a little more care in making the mounting hole, they allow much tighter spacing of multiple drivers.
Yes, they do allow the closer placment as long as the carre in cutting the hole and radius is taken.

I was thinking that -- just didn't want to say that... these are available now? $$$?

I have been contemplating building a vertical line array of
fullrange 3" drivers for small club venue PA use. It would be
a simple 2 way system with the 3" vertical lines + subs. The
sub would be crossed over somewhere between 200-250 Hz.
I figured I would need at least 1.5mm Xmax drivers for
the 3" line to be able to adequately produce enough SPL before distortion down to the 200 Hz range in a PA application. I couldn't find many reasonably priced 3" driver candidates to meet that
1.5mm Xmax criteria. The only TB I see that meets that is the W3-993s. I don't know of any distributors that carry it though. I thought I may have found an inexpensive candidate
from MCM. They have a 3" full range (Their part# LS00119 with no manufacturer brand indicated) that they publish as having 1.5mm Xmax spec so I ordered just a few to check them out for SQ. When I got them I saw that they were Monacor speakers so I double checked the specs with those published by Monacor & found that MCM had deceptively published the Xmax P-P value rather than the proper Xmax one way 🙄 . Their SQ is acceptable though for what I wanted them for.
Hey Dave. What are your special drivers?
