NO DO NOT USE THOSE!, fIRST OF ALL BECAUSE OF THE UNSHIELDED MAGNETS, AND 2 nd because there are better more compact drivers available, that are shielded... cheers TJB, OH AND IF ANYBODY SUGGESTS TO YOU THAT YOU COULD SHIELD THEM, FORGET IT, AS FINDING A SUITABLE MAGNET TO DO IT WITH AND A SHIELDING CUP WILL BE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE, DUE TO THE SIZE OF THE MAGNETS....
