Post Subject: PolyethylenePosted by el`Ol on: 1/29/2008

I didn´t have a chance to listen, but I am very interested in the lower cost polyethylene drivers. When I first read this I thought it is a joke. I wonder how that sounds.
Seems that in home audio the horns are currently more popular than the drivers. I am currently thinking about a fun project with them: Take some pairs of NOS B.I.C Venturi drivers from the seventies, combine them with the smallest Eighteensound horns, take these seventies style orange cubes as enclosures that are currently modern again (two way speakers) and sell them off at Ebay (in the furniture section). Not for earning money, I am just interested whether there is a demand for something like that.

For normal (even pro) use I find the 6.5"er more interesting than the 8"er:

I just thought 31Tm for a midranger, that´s sick.
