Peerless (India) Sub?

[flypig]

I want to build a small volume sealed sub. (Small is important for maximum wife compatibility.)

Since I am in India wondering what drivers I could use. 8" 10"?

Has anyone used Peerless India drivers for a sub? Any good?
Any other suggestions for something available locally?

It would be used with music most of the time. I am not looking for just hi spl for home theatre.

Don't forget to look at the Chinese Dainty sub-woofers.They are affordable and their specs look OK for your application. If the specs are reasonably close to the published figures they might be better than Boltons or the local Peerless. I guess the ( Peerless India) export variety may meet the specs.
I was told that a new range of Taiwanese drivers will come into the market in June or July.

Check the forum for the Dainty specs :http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showt...717#post352717

Well the Boltons I definitely wont look at. Any known dealer for the Daintys on Lamington Road? Most vendors seemed to have just one or two models.

Dev (Lamington Road) seems to have lots of Peerless in stock. 8" sub was Rs. 860... But u got to buy a pair.

Thanks for the pointer to the Dainty specs. the shops just sell em by size

Well i have got the data sheet of Peerless India speaker range. I am looking for a 3 way floor standers.. There are a couple of 10" woofer models, im sure u can use them as subs.

Well even im looking for variety of LS distributors in Mumbai only if they are professionals.

Hi,
Are there any Peerless India 8 inch drivers? I might need a couple.

I've used their 8 inch drivers. OK for bass. I wouldn't use them for anything higher than say 300Hz.

Hi,
Is there any place I can buy them right now?

As far as I know you can only get it in Bombay.
Ask our Bombay pals to arrange it for you. You can send them the money and they can get the shop to ship it to you.
What about Dainty ? Might be a better bet and cheaper .
Cheers.

if small is a criteria you can make a sub smaller by going isobarik. the VB will be little more than half that of a single driver sub.

going by reputation i'd look at Bolton before Peerless India and Dainty. Angshu might be able to help you there.

rakeshln ,

Can you post the Peerless specs that you have . If you got it off the web give us the URL.
Have you confirmed that the published specs are close to the measured specs ?
Cheers.
