New Markaudio Drivers

$299 AUD ea apparently.
Hopefully that’s for the pair?

Please please, let there be a matching MA200-W woofer like the 12p/w with lower fs and higher xmax coming too. The two together would be awesome.

I would cross my 5.3’s over to the 200 Multi at 400hz in a sealed cab and the W in a MLTL up to 100hz, that would be seriously impressive.

I’ve been waiting for a bigger driver to pair with my 5.3’s so I will be getting these at launch.

The MA200 is classed by tham as a multi-purpose unit -you'll note that they avoid using the words 'full range', 'wide band' or similar.

In fairness, it's already got a substantially higher Xmax than, say, most roughly price equivalent 8in Seas / Scan units, so you'd need to go toward subwoofers (which MA aren't interested in making) to get substantially more, and a 33Hz Fs is in the mean zone for most similar size units.

Depends how you mean by perform? For a start it's nearly 30% larger with a slightly higher linear travel range so outright power-handling / dynamic range is substantially higher. For the rest, you can probably compare some of the boxes I did for the 12PW relative to those for the new unit (both on the MA site) to get a rough idea where things lie as far as LF loading is concerned.

Nice, I will go have a look. 👍
 
I don't think there's a fixed release date for given regions so much as 'whenever a given distributor / dealer puts in & receives their twice (or whatever) yearly stock order'. With some exceptions, it tends to be rare for distributors / dealers, especially smaller ones, to order, say, a half-pallet of a specific drive unit separately, as it significantly raises the shipping / import costs, which is going to be difficult for them to absorb in the current economic climate.
 
Can anyone recommend a small box design and a driver for a simple single mono speaker. It’s to sit on a shelf and for background music/radio in a dining room.

There isn’t much of price difference between the larger unirs. 10.3/CHR120/Pluvia11.

The new one sounds good with bid SD
 
MOAP11 DRIVERS in the RTL cabinet. Love the sound. Have the paired with a REL T7x

I have a multitude of MA drivers now, and feel a miniOnken style with a big driver would look good.

On a side note, would anyone be interested in buying some 3D printed single baffle waveguides that would allow the CHN-40 to easily be mounted, and allow for as close driver placement with a neat chamfered waveguide to hide the not so pretty metal basket?
