Hey Jo, 

just curious which other drivers you use in combination with the Cubo15 / 15ND930? I'm planning a 12v sound system based on a Cubo with the same driver (which would be covering approximately the 40-100hz range), but don't really know which other drivers would compliment the 15ND930.. I was looking at 2x 8NMB420 8" drivers, plus 3-4x HD1050 1" drivers (plus horns) from Eighteensound. Do you reckon those would compliment each other nicely?

Thanks!

Laat maar, alles is duidelijk. Bedankt! Dus volgens de t/s parameters zou de Precision Devices  PD.154NR1 een goeie driver zijn voor de cubo kick?

So if these 'legs' of the kick are all stable you could look into the following drivers, both from 18Sound, the 15NLW9300 (neo) and the 15LW2400 (ferrite).

If you say, I'm just gonna use one kick per side, EQ a bit as I'm mostly interested in a low thud, I would choose the 15LW2400. If you say, I like a bit more snappy kick, or I'm going to stack the kicks and/or use multiples per side, I would choose the 15NLW9300.

It's reviews like yours where at least half of my knowledge comes from. Plus this is one of the few forums were a gag like that works.

On special request:

Good kick drivers (for Cubo Kick 15 and alike) have:

Qts 0.2 - 0.4
EBP (Fs / Qts) over 100, typically 120 - 180 Hz
Xmax less then 10 mm, typically 6 - 8 mm (except optimistic Faital Pro calculations)
3" - 4" voice coil
Le typically less then 1.5 mH, lower is good

Cubo Kick 15 drivers often have a Qts x Vas product in the 40 - 80 range and a Mms between 80 - 140 g.



My cubo kick is loading JBL 2226, the spec fits most part on your list

Qts  0.31
EBP 129
Xmax 7.6
4" Coil
Le 1.75
Qts x Vas 56
Mms 98

It sounds good to me, the kick is clean and punchy.

Ahh.. so much symbolism, where to begin?

I could tell you that mobiele eenheid means "mobile unit", if that mobile unit is you, a person (are you really?),  therefore having legs would be the basis of said mobility in 95% of cases?

Does this story have legs? Am I about to have a leg up or am I just talking the hind legs of a donkey? Basically I'm trying to give people a leg up and not to have the legs of someone because I don't have a leg to stand on. Truly I'm not trying to pull your leg nor would I want you to leave with your tail between your legs, basically I'm just showing a leg. Because to have the bass and kick covered means to have pulled the weight of someone's legs, giving that person the first leg of ones journey. I mean, you have to get sea legs eventually.

Although it's probably just a Dutch saying not translating very well to English.

Best regards Legs

sorry, i dont know enough about speakers so my logic was: more watts= heavier bass but this does not seem
to make sense. i just want to load my cubos with a driver that gives the heaviest en best sounding kick.

Why? 

What is special about them being 800 to 1000 watts? 

What if they're able to take lots of power but sound bad?

What if they take lots of power but are really inefficient so put out less spl? 

Your request makes little sense. Might be better if you explain why you asked this and what you are trying to achieve.

I'm pretty sure you'll be able to help the op find a suitable driver.
