audiofilofine,

I do not like when they just remove the magnet and to replace it with electromagnet coil. I do feel that in this configuration the coil is not vented well and either the driver has too much thermal stress or it will run only at very low magnetic force. The last one is not a problem for Altec 806 as it has reduced magnet side compare to Altec 808/802. What I would like those people who do conversions to do is to cut some sluts across the driver back path allowing the coil to breathe in open air. Or preplans to have own custom-made naked cylinder back path, the way how Cogent do.
