Is anyone using these drivers? I am interested on some opinions on sound quality for music and for HT.
Also, I would love some suggestions for a tweeter that would match up nicely to this driver.
Thanks,

Give everyone a chance, the forum has been effectively shut down for the last 2-3 days.
Can you dig out a URL to the driver so that everyone doesn't have to go digging to figure out exactly which driver you are talking about.

Its response graph is pretty ugly right in the region where your ear is most sensitive. I wouldn't want to use this much above 300 Hz.
What is your target application?

Looking for an affordable sheilded driver for home theater that is available in both 4 ohm version as well as 8 ohm
I know the response graph isnt pretty, but that doesnt always mean a speaker sounds bad.

Is your plan MTM for L, R fronts & MT for rears? and you'd like to keep to 4 ohms (Ms paralleled) or 8 ohms (Ms series)?
Yes this is VERY true, but here with the stiff cone, the early break up & the early roll-off off axis, things don't look really good for it having a sweet midrange response.

Im looking to keep it 8 ohms all the way around. So two 4 ohm drivers in series in each front, and one 8 ohm in each rear.
Milzie,
did you end up using the Vifa MG driver and if so what were your thoughts on it?
Planet10,
I can't see why you say that the response is ugly? To me it looks quite flat!
It has a narrow dip just above 1khz of 2db, pretty minor. Then above that dip the response is up about 2db before its upper rolloff.
I would consider a response like that one that doesn't need any eq at all. How many drivers are smoother than this? (yes I know the Vifa P13 is smoother, yet it has early rolloff.
Perhaps I am mistaken ...
What about the Vifa MG14?
Above about 1.5khz the response drops down a little, and I wonder if this could be a good thing given the sensitivity of the ear in this range. This would result in a more laid back sound I imagine, and give less listening fatigue ... any thoughts?
regards,
Paul
