This driver works extremely well.....
I did see this driver in my browsing and it does look good. I was aiming for a 5 or 6.5 inch driver and in the end went for a 6.5 ps180 Dayton audio which I estimate is 150-160cm diam. It looks quite nice and the few reviews of it I found are quite positive. It will bass shy. Still trying to settle on a box design. I have drawn up a possible design based on diyaudio.com members scottmoose and planet10s "Stinger" which I think was designed for an Alpair 6 or 7. I have some other options from the above bass reflex simulations. I had a dabble with hornresponse and Lenard audio transmission line simulations and posted results for comments but difficult to be noticed I guess or what I am doing is way off and naive. It's a bit of a learning curve. I am not expecting great bass response from a small fullrange. In the music I mostly listen to this shouldn't be a problem. If I put on a cd of orgel music from the cathedral of St. John the Devine I know what to expect.
The vistatons however may be a future project maybe in the 125-130cm, 5". They seem good value and may go well with a small subwoofer. There seems to be lots of competition in the 100-125cm, 4-5" range.
