Fane SB 1000w

anyone used these? and if so, in what context?

got a set of brand spankers down the lockup, looking forward to firing them up.

on paper theyre fairly sensitive. i hearly they play nicely in BPH

Hc - Hg/2 = 5.5 smiley3 , BL=24,

Don't get carried away with the power rating, or setting HPF too low.

don't worry, wont be using for anything below 75hz... smiley16

after seeing how much spanners moved a set of fane XB on sub, which sports a meaty 6.5mm of true xmax, i think 5.5 will be ok on midbass. we shall see smiley36

You didn't fancy used 186s/XBs as opposed to new SBs for Midbass ?

Bought a set of 186, tried them. were ok, but not sensitive enough. Xb don't play high enough, probably due to ribbed cone. And I couldn't find any at the time

certainly don't consider the SB to be a 1000w driver. treating it more like a 500 atm. smiley36

oh and new set of SB was same price as used set of PD186...
