Anyone have the latest on the top choices of subwoofer drivers for IB and possibly other applications?
It seems that almost every driver manufacturer I was familiar with has closed shop... It also seems that most drivers these days are just made for small enclosures and trying to get the most out of the smallest enclosure possible.
In general, IB drivers don't require a huge motor, but I wonder if anyone can design a dedicated IB driver that simply uses a LONGER motor rather than too powerful, thereby allowing for long excursions and keeping Fs very low... (I suppose the days of mass loading are over now...)
What are the latest, greatest sub driver? I am tired of my (4) Aura 1808 drivers... They have lost their quality... I'm looking for a new project involving many, many 18 inch drivers, probably a total of 16... (8 on each side in 4x2 stacks).
Thanks,
Chris
