Yes they might be superseded by many drivers. I think it was in 2008 or 2009 the mk2 hit the market.
So only 10 years for the mk.2 :D

If you Google "mth30 beyma 12lx60" you'll get some vids and links to a number of threads here where the cab and driver are discussed.

iirc him and james were using them in those decware wicked one scalable horn bandpass things that seemed popular for a while. have never knowingly heard that particular combo but the lx series were really good sub drivers although I guess probably superceded now since they are a 20 year old design

Hi Norty.

Thats just those threads i am talking about :) 
I would prefer the Beyma 4" coil over the PD 3".
But havent been able to see any sims of the two drivers compared to each other, so a bit hard to tell if the Beyma would be a better choice :)
Anyhow, both the PD 12SB30 and Beyma 12LX60 are very hard to obtain.
Now we got PD 123C01 as a direct replacement and Beyma 12LX60v2.

Have also been looking at more modern drivers, with higher powerhandling, but when comparing prices, i doesnt seem to find any better suggestions than PD 123C01 and Beyma 12LX60v2.
They seem to give the best bang for the buck.

But afaik it was the Beyma 12LX60 he used. 12LX60v2 are not completly the same driver. There are some TS differences.
I am not able to sim anything as i am only running from tablet and phone at this moment.


If its the dual 18 bandpass, magnet-to-magnet design your mean, i know that one also.
Pretty good for such a compact enclosure.

Cheers

Well, after a little searching around, i found out that the 12SB30 have been suberseded by the PD 123C01, and after a little comparing, those two drivers looks to be exactly the same. Or am i missing something?

Also found some writing on the big interweb, about Beyma 12LX60V2 being quite nice.
But havent found any proof of that, besides that post.

Evening Guys.

Just returned home from a pickup of some used boxes i have bought. 
And amongst them, there was a set of MTH30. Unloaded.
Solid build and in very good condition. 
Are these worth the time and money to load, or should i just use them as trash bins?

And what to load them with today?
The recommended PD is a No-go, so what else is out there? :)
PD, B&C, 18sound, Beyma, Fane and RCF is easy to get. 

Cheers
