    The Dayton jakelm linked to is nice and this one looks real good as well. http://www.diycable.com/main/product_info.php?cPath=24_93&products_id=653 I wish I had the budget for drivers of this quality.:(

    You wouldnt believe the price I paid for the SVS I have. And one of the best woofers I have ever had.

    I think I paid $60 for it when I belong to www.thehometheaterspot.com . Big SVS fans there. Everyone upgraded their woofers and basicaly gave the old ones away.

    Yeah, I wanted 2 or 3 even, but the guy only had one. Came out of a PB12 Plus series. Maybe had 40 hours on it, then he upgraded.

    You should see the difference in size compared to my Dayton. But I still want something with alittle more excursion, so I dont bottom out so easily.

    Only 40 hours and he had the urge to upgrade.:confused:What was the cost of the upgrade driver?

    Wasnt much...I think $100. Only for SVS owners. It was around 40 hours, he only had it for about a week, maybe 2.

    SVS claimed the 12.2 was far superior to the 12.1 and now they claim the same for the 12.3

    OK if it only put him out another $40 it makes sense.

    At the moment, I have four of these: http://www.edesignaudio.com/edv2/product_info.php?cPath=37&products_id=183
    2 ported boxes, I have the designs saved in WinISD. Going to build two boxes with two subs each. I also have a pair of 6.5 Tannoy dual concentric drivers. I was going to build second enclosure for these and place them on top of each sub to make them full range.

    You certainly won't be wanting for more bass with 4 12's.

    I have not listened to any Tannoy dual concentrics but have heard reports that they sound good.
