Powersoft don't make a 60" diaphragm, and that doesn't look like any of theirs anyways. It looks to be the A&D 60" unit, which is a normal driver, not M-Force.

That was my first thought. More bracing required.

Loving the silliness of that. Up there with the silly Brazilian bass trucks.

They might want to put a back on it as well, and if the driver is 130kg, maybe some better handles.

I was thinking the same... on the video, there is no mforce motor to be seen.
It looks more like a regular magnet assembly.

I thought that when they launched the M-Force stuff they stated it was available in 32 to 72 inch diaphragms. Shame that it is not what I was hoping it was but it makes sense.

Have you got a link to any info on the driver you think it is? I did a google search but got nothing back that was useful.
