Adire AV8 Woofers

My upcoming MTMs will need some kind of additional support to get the bass extension that I want. Originally, I was going to simply build a sealed Tempest Sub, but a few things made me reconsider.

Currently, I am entertaining the idea of building stereo dual woofers; that is, two separate sealed boxes, each housing two forward firing woofer drivers. This is advantageous to the mono sub because I will probably replace the MTMs in a few years, and the 2-ways I have planned to replace them would need additional midrange. I'll probably build a mono sub later, anyway...waiting to see what Adire has cooking for their next-gen sub drivers.

I've looked at the numbers, and it looks like the Adire AV8s hit the correct frequencies with a decent amount of bass extension. Has anyone had any experiences with the AV8? How do they compare to the "high-end" drivers, like the Accuton C2-92/6 or the Dynaudio 24W-75? Anyone else have drivers to recommend?
I'm looking for a useable frequency range from 80Hz-1kHz in a sealed box.

Thanks, Won

The little Adire woofers are very good for the money. And the MTM kit they offer has gotten rave reviews. But they certainly aren't in the same league as Accuton.

Don't know about the Dynaudio, I can't stand the colorations of poly drivers
