Well, the “promised” the gravitas and size but it need to understood that it will not be coming from fane for from extra length of the horn after you shrink the throat down to 4”. Fine will give some tonal actuation and some useful “boom” if your current driver does not have it. I think if you do not like 8M then you will be able to sell it with time. The Studio 8M is 8” driver which is in reality 6” cone. There is none a lot of 103dB sensitive 8-inshers out there. So, since Fane will not produce then after oxric’s run they will become “vintage” again. It will be 25 DIY-audio-level users who will be telling about Fane and I anticipate in a year or so 8M will be sold for $1500, which is I guess is a far price of the driver.
In fact if I have an interest in making money on it then I would order a party of 100-200 drivers for myself, re-label then with some kind “New England Accustic” name. Then I would publish an 3-4 pages article in “Speaker Builder”, or “Audio Express”, or something like this with explanation of the idea and the advantages of MF and Upperbass separation with accent on the Upperbass implementation. If to explain to the Morons, to chew and to stick the food into the mouths, which would allow the people do not hear or think then they will snatch the park of 100-200 drivers with the speed of hungry coyotes… The people who trade audio for DIYers shall take notes.
