What are everyones favorite 12" Mid drivers? I need to buy some in a while but I need some help making a disicion.....
At the moment im thinking about Paudio SN-12B the specs look really good, and im liking the look of 100db/w efficiency!
 What are peoples experiances with these drivers?
Or what would you recomend???

The B and C 12PE32 seems to be favorite with some people. Sensitivity is 101.5 db 1W 1M. Will work in a simple cab or a horn loaded one.

I presume as you have referred to the SN12B you mean for use with a short horn ?

Well that was kinda what I heading for, but im really unsure... I was just waiting to see what people said really...
Wow thats incredible sensitivity! I just looked at the specs and it looks great.
I assume you cant really get 12" drivers that a higher sensitivity than that? Does anybody know of one!? [/QUOTE]

Current preference is the 18Sound 12ND710. Very efficient and very light!

This is what i've been looking at:
Driver Price (roughly) My thoughts...
P-audio SN-12B £80 Good sensitivity, Light, Good EBP, CHEAP!
Fane 12MB £109 Huge xmax, High power handling,
B&C 12PE 32 £109 Phenominal Sensitivity, Good EBP
18sound 12ND710 £? Crazy sensitivity, good power handling, light,
low inductance, good xmax.... (seems like a winner!)
Cheers guys! How do these drivers compare to each other sound wise?? Any opinions on what sounds best? Edited by Jake_Fielder - 15 January 2008 at 11:23pm |

I like the HPL 64 light as a feather and sensitivity is 100dB.
Depends on its application though, whats it for? |

I can only be vauge im afraid!
All i know is my mate blew up my existing 12s and i need some more, but this time im gonna build really good ones and save up to get good equipment. Horn loaded probably (unless anyone has a better suggestion?) I think i wanna build 2 cabs to start with.
Obviously I could build 12" &1"
or 12"&1.4" etc..
But possibly i could go 12" 6" &1"
Playing from roughly 100-120Hz up to 20k ish
I have been learning alot about bass over the last few months but i have been ignoring mid etc, I just wanted some peoples ideas to kind of guide me into forming an opinion of what i need, cheers peeps!
