Problem is, nowadays anything in the 10" range is likely to be a woofer or sub-woofer that's meant to be used as part of a 2 or 3-way system and what you want is a good old-fashioned "full range" speaker, which is proving to be harder to find than I thought it would be. But here's a low-cost 10:" that I think I'd be willing to try: http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=290-262 While the frequency response of this $17 woofer is given as 74-5000 hz, it might sound pretty good. If you wanted more highs, you could try the approach used by Jensen and others who used to make full-range speakers by suspending a smaller PM speaker across the cone with a simple series capacitor crossover to handle the midrange frequencies. 73, Bob W9RAN ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Post: [email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [email protected] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
