Sexiest woofer ever? specs?

DIY_newbie · 20th May 2005, 10:03 PM

Damn, this thing would look good in an open baffle 8)

from the MCM website :

Pro Series PA Series

When only the very best will do, MCM offers the ProSeries woofers. Every aspect of these woofers are designed for musical accuracy at the highest degree. Features include multicore magnet structure, butyl rubber surround, cast frame, poly resin treated cone, accuvent pole piece, gold plated push terminals and chrome plated rear magnet assembly. You simply can't find a better woofer at twice the price.

Anyone have any idea how to get some specs on this woofer or how to find out?

Give MCM a call. If they can't furnish specs. on the loudspeaker, look elsewhere.

I e-mailed them already... if I don't hear back I'll do it the old fashioned way and give them a call. I was hoping someone on here knew who built the speakers for them... You gotta admit that red/chrome motor is pretty sexy

El Pipe-O was built with drivers from that line, I believe.

Focal are great drivers. They have all made me drool..

the new magnum D2 SI's motors are WAY sexier...and MT's have that poleventless sexiness... only thing i dont like is the cookie cutter 12 spoke baskets...though they look good, a poopie load of companies use the exact same cast baskets.

If these are the same series as those used in El Pipe-O, you can find the specs for the 21" version at the bottom of the page here:

Kent English (I think) descibes them this way is the article:

"They look to be copies of a large Focal woofer, but the manufacturing quality is not quite as high. If you buy these, we recommend that you test them right away for voice coil mis-alignment."

oh ya

oh ya and then there is the uberwoofer

that coil makes me orgausm

What kind of woofers are those? Who makes them I mean...

The top one looks like some sort of backwards XBL^2 or underhung... The backplate is insanely thick!

the middle one all I have to say is, thats one big magnet

the bottom one... Could the coil be any further from the gap?
