    Which bc is the same as an nd? 
    nd20fb and nd16fa are both in stock and under budget. A lot of the tweeters you guys mentioned are either out of stock, >$20, or both. Guess a lot of PE's drivers were made in Wuhan. 
    Another problem, not enough ply or mdf laying around the house and not sure how to get any.

    Looks like PE posted measurements of the SS/Vifa and MB buyouts.

    What about the ptmini6 ribbon 275-083? 
    And yea, I've experienced PE's throw it in a box and ship it krap.        
       
    I used the ptmini6 in a small 3-way and liked it. I gifted the speakers to a friend and they were showing some signs of heat damage the last time I saw them. I think she likes it loud. As I recall some at DIY Iowa liked the highs too.

    @Ron_E ; crossed around 5k?
  • WolfWolf
    I don't think so. The domes look different, and the ND25 does not sound very okay to me.

    I love the B-52s! I got the whole shack shimmies!

  • ScottSScottS
    If you build something that makes full use of that port, the whole shack will shimmy.
    Keep an open mind, but don't let your brain fall out.

    It's like they are not even trying these days. A half price buyout port tube?

    They're probably running out of Chinese products to sell.  Just look at now much stuff is out of stock. 
  • jr@macjr@mac
    That's very likely.

    If my wife wouldn’t murder me over it I’d have a pair of these on the way in a heartbeat! 
  • rjj45rjj45
    Oh crap, that's my kind of discount on a top driver.
    Very nice high Qms also!
    What is the implication of Qts at .29? Needs a larger box to reach low?
    But Chahly - Stahkist don't want speakers that look good, Stahkist wants speakers that sound good!

    Gotta go out in the shed and work on something, otherwise I might accidentally hit the buy button.

    FWIW I won a pair of its little brother the NE225W-04 at SDDIY.  They are wonderful sounding woofers in a 3 way.  Impedance drops pretty low but nothing my amps can't handle.  If you've got the need, and the funds, I'd say go for it.  That's a heck of a deal.  They should throw in a free flashlight too ;)

    JR was saying something about them being a better woofer than subwoofer.  How do they compare to the rs225?
  • PWRRYDPWRRYD
    No comparison in my experience.  You can crank them and they just don't fall apart.  They could even cross high enough for a two way with a robust tweeter in a wave guide.  I think that's what Pete and Ryan (Vapor) used in the first version of the Breeze.

    Got to hold back the urge.

    Why do they drop these NE series drivers so low?!  I still have a pair of the 12s unopened from the last time they did this!!!

    I figure that SB is kicking everyone's butt, and Vifa is now closing out that line in preparation for a new line to compete with the Satoris.

    The Aurora is the Vapor model with the 225 as a 2-way.

    At the usual rate, i would get the Satori WOP instead of the 8" or the 10" vifa NE. but at this discounted price...

    Ah that's right, the Aurora.  I thought they sounded great at DIY Chicago.  Probably my favorite speaker at that event.
