Peerless XLS 830500: new vs. old ?

noslepums · 8th October 2012, 10:22 PM

Just today it was brought to my attention that this driver is
currently available, new, from PE.
I thought that this driver was long out of production and unavailable.
So, I must ask, is this new version the same piece as was available
a few years ago ? Same build quality, same T/S parameters, the SAME ?
Thanks folks.

Hi AudioSan,
Looking around, I found an old PDF description of these and it does NOT match the current PDF description found on Tymphany website.
How do I post an attachment on here ?

it is not un usual that there is more then one data sheet on peerless drivers.
i see there are some difference on tymphany's data sheet and what PE writes.
but that is just wrong numbers at PE

I think I posted a similar message in a different thread. The answer is that apparently the manufacturer has indeed changed the specs on this driver. I think it was Parts-Express who told me to use the new specs from the mfr.

I have done a bit of research on this driver and have varies white papers of varies vintage at home. Will report back soon. I have one in my auto mobile(30ish liter sealed), it sounds great.
