Need raw driver advice

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a project where I need a 16 ohm 10" cone. These do not need to go real low, nor real high. My thoughts are that I need to get down to around 100Hz, and only up to 1KHz. Cabinet can be ported or sealed. There will be two of these cones in the cab, with only one playing up to the horn crossover freq. The other one will roll off around 300-400Hz, to just reinforce the low mids, while keeping combing in the upper end to a minimum. This is not for a bass amp per se. More of a PA cab, used with subs all the time.

Thanks for any suggestions you may have.

A pair of 4ohms with series wiring may open up more options. I dont' know what HF horn/driver your're using but any HF horn has a serious SPL advantage over most any 10, a pair could compete but that'd take away the lowpass thing for the 2nd 10.

The 4 ohm thing won't work. These cones will be driven by different amp channels. I intend to drive four cones per channel. Two amp channels drives four cabs worth of cones that way. Also, I don't care if these are neo or ceramic.
