Some speaker driver measurements...

Okay, I know that my website has some problems with Firefox. And your problem included there too. I'm very sorry for that.

It does not seem as the buttons are activated.

In Chrome it works without any problems.

Is it just me or do these results look really good?

It does seem like a very good driver.

Wow! First dynamic cone driver with *really* low THD in 1-2kHz range! It is so good that it should be illegal to sell...

Yes I saw that too. I guess the only difference is the colour. I have had the black version in my Wishlist at Solen for quite a while.

I agree, this driver has very impressive measurements!

Now, go acquire and measure SB15NAC35 - it will go even better. Actually this is driver which is testing distortion of your measurement rig, rather than setup testing distortion of the driver... See 4th and 5th order going down while raising voltage to 5.6V, amazing.


Vifa (now Tymphany) NE-series is also worth checking further. NE149W shows extreme level of fidelity as well. It is still overally better driver series than over-hyped Satori.

I was actually going to make a comment similar to yours, except that I already picked out the SB15NBAC35-4 as my midrange for my next loudspeaker, nicknamed The five voices loudspeaker (5 drivers)

Will check your opinion very soon as I have NE180W-04.

Good, keep going! You're doing really great job for DIY community.

Seas ceramic mid-bass and tweeter would make a good test?

Can you do the Fountek FR88EX as well?

Thanks again for getting and sharing this data!

I would like to see Seas DXT tweeter measurements esepecially how it compares to SB26ADC tweeter.

I wish I had these drivers for measurements too.

Not so clean as expected but fortunately consistent, not like those MWxxP with their edge problems... Unfortunately CSD looks not that good. Are you sure the noise in environment was well controlled?
