Seas CA18RLY or CA18RNX for floorstander

[clay-speakers]

Yes agreed the 850146 was an excellent driver.
OK I better let this thread get back on track.

'Peerless 850146' - wonderful woofers, I have a pair in 70L cabs, tuned to low 30s. These will work in just about any cab, wish they were still available, (I know, there is a newer Asian version available)

Slightly off topic but can you share which newer Asian version is available in replacement of the Peerless 850146?

I want to make BassReflex floorstander with 6" Seas Prestige. My first priority is extended bass response, no matter what size box will be. I'm in mix between Seas CA18RLY and CA18RNX.
what do you guys think?

You want extended bass?
Consider at least an 8 or 10 inch woofer to move enough air.
a 12 inch or 15 and you will feel the bass in your toes.

Since we are on the topic of bass, which 8 or 10 inch woofer you can recommend that can play lower than 40Hz in a ported 38l to 40l box?

Thanks for the link but Peerless 850146 is 10in whereas 830669 is a 12in woofer. Thought the newer version you mentioned is also a 10in woofer.

A moment's googling will find you the 830668:
