Interesting new ScanSpeak-ish driver on Aliexpress

blue934

15W Scan imitation, not really a clone or copy althought the cone looks spot on.
I was able to obtain some info from the manufacture, hopefully they post this in the ad.
Pay attention to the Z scale, it differs between the 2 graphs.

I wouldn't gamble for $79 each.

Yeah... if they were offering free shipping I might take a chance on them, but not at $79 each.

Still 1/3 of the cost of a real Revelator, hmm...

How bout the Scanspeak 15W/8434T00 at Madisound for $99.
Anybody feel like giving that a try?

It looks like a very nice driver, if I was in the US I'd be very tempted by it. It's double that price up here.

This is the most exciting thing on Aliexpress for speaker DIY IMO.

USB audio interface, dual channel measurement jig, amplifier, and microphone an an all-in-one solution for the price of a DATS or a budget USB audio interface!

The all-in-one compactness and portability make that little J-box really interesting.

Bad chinese to english translations crack me up sometimes. There is a porbe and a poreb described, but never probe. But it does look interesting.

Yeah I’m out on the Scam Speak, although it does feature “Cutting paper cones (controlling cone splitting vibration)”.

I’d be curious if the cone is really sliced and glued or if it’s pressed or printed. I’m sure there can be some good drivers found on Ali, but this one looks like it’s biggest thing is trying to look like something it’s not.

Bad photoshop? I'd stay away
