CPC prob. your best bet.

UK? Inexpensive? Has something happened over here that I don't know about? 😀
Looking for those inexpensive drivers I guess!

Depends what you call cheap! £19.99 ?

Vikash's site uses them from a 'Zaph' design

Maybe what you're looking for?? Not overly sensitive though.

Hi Guys,
thanks for all the replies - though I should explain what I'm after.
I want to update a late 50's valve bass combo with a bright box.
The BB is a horizontal array of 4 3" drivers, 3 4" drivers or 2 6x4
drivers. It will also have a series capacitor for bass limiting and to
reduce the loading on the valve amplifier in the bass.
The bass amps output if your lucky is ~15 watt, with the series
capacitor power handling is not an issue, nor is "sound quality".
The loading of the array must be higher than 8 ohms.
The bass combo has a 15" alnico magnet driver - so the
ideal units would be NOS old high efficiency (TV?) drivers,
very bog-standard paper cone, dust cap and surround.

Hi all,
thanks for the pointers. Think I found what I needed - using 4 of :
http://cpc.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/partDetail.jsp?SKU=AR70946&N=411
for a ~ 5" by ~ 14" array should hit 98dB/W - ~ what's needed.
🙂 /Sreten.
