Damn! I've been looking for these for a long time, but if I didn't get them I'm glad you did. I think you've been looking even longer.
Have fun!

 

[PKI]

Thanks! Yes long long time! 🙂 Will be making some nice WWMTM soon 🙂

 

[mordikai]

What mids and tweets?

 

[PKI]

Have several candidates. Scans and SB. Prototyping will show more.

 

[PKI]

Btw, got the drivers. Have not measured yet, but looks good. Great packing!

I had the ScanSpeak version of this driver in a 3-way for a long time
I actually had a choice between 2 SS 8555 or 4 Usher 8955, if I remember correctly
I went with SS
Kind of a mistake
The Usher's look as good or better and have a bigger magnet
SB has low BL
CSD looks to be pretty bad for the mids at least
I was listening to SB15MFC-08 today and they sounded good, but a little slow
Not sure if the CSD graph got to my head

If I had the room I would go with JBL 2226 for low end
Or two 8955 per side also a great choice
