To be honest Ray, the drivers that you really need for the Turbos are 18B not the XBs as the XBs are unsuitable for that design and tend to shred cones and suspensions very easily.

I do recall hearing the OEM was based on 18B.

Luckily I didn't buy the 18XB for these cabs, so no loss there.

Will scrutinise 18B parms, and find something close.Thumbs Up

The Blines didn't shred but burned out, as you said though, they were being used in multiples for full bottom end. Have seen ribbed cone stuff shred in horns though, although not T18 weirdly.

You will never see a Fane OEM driver with these covers on due to cost saving and they work fine without any overheating in both Turbo and F1 cabinets.

Thanks for above and previous posters..

Have indeed grown up, and bought 4x Turbo cabs. LOL

EDIT:Authentic not copies..

Boke "copy" chambers are so big, you can bolt fridge freezer in there, no problem..LOL




Fane 18xb does not fit in the Boke withought removing the heatsinks/fins. I have 4 such cabinets.

Seeing as I have few of these "Surgical scalpels", tried it, worked effortlessly.

Maybe diff versions, I got 4x for a mate, Fane XBs & numerous others fit, with no mods. Even some rather deep Beymas.
