They are the Martin 218 and the f2 tops. They do sound good for their age.

How do the martin 218 sound up to 230hz?
Light travels faster than sound....That's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak!

I've haven't played the 218's up to 230hz, only upto 150hz to crossover to the f2. The f2 actually need a higher crossover point to the lower mids but didn't want to go too high on the 218

Be carefull you dont foul the phase plug in the 12" crossing down at 150hz, you certainly wouldn't be able to run anywhere near full power at those settings, thats assuming they are original with the correct drivers and phase plugs? Be a shame to damage such a lovely driver Thumbs Up

I know mate! I was noway near full power driving them because of this. As I had more kit elsewhere, I had to take the gamble and be very careful. I had limited them regardless, and had a man on that float to make sure it was running good, and also to check the wireless reciever signal too
