Cant go wrong with a Volt driver. Once experienced, never forgotten.

I did some 5" +1" coax cabs a while ago.
BMS loaded, I really like how they sound. Use them as monitions in the studio when tracking vocal and other quite instruments, they don't do much below 90Hz very crisp and detailed. |

Thanks all - I’ve asked Volt for a price, the CX220.1 sounds ideal.

Hmm, £250 direct from Volt - no availability until mid August!
Back to the drawing board…

I have a couple of pairs of Tannoy i8s, also the controller (TX1) which can be used as a crossover to separate sub, or an eq for full range use.
PM me if any interest.

A bit leftfield, but depending on how loud you need it to be you might be able to find a good deal on some car audio coax speakers. The stated power handling obviously needs to be taken with a bucket of salt, but I've had some pretty loud and great sounding ones from Infinity and Focal in the past.

I’ve been eyeing up this 6” P-Audio coaxial for a compact 12v rig. It seems to tick all the boxes of my needs, which sound similar to yours.

Space - The final frontier. The challenge being what are you going to compromise - Efficency vs. bandwidth. So deciding factor might be how low vs. how loud. Some drivers like being in a small a box as possible - This makes the natural roll off steeper, but flatter in the pass band. Useful for drivers with a small x-max. But crossover frequency will be fairly high. Lots of mid drivers have a decent x-max- This makes them more suitable for use with reflex ports which can extend the bandwidth while still giving resonable efficiency. I am thinking of allignments like QB5 where the port hump is actively filtered to give an extended response without too much excursion. Time spent with Hornresp can give interesting results - Driver in reflex cab, run sim and then use the filter wizard to check the response & displacement.

Not coax, but the B&C 6MBX44 mid-bass driver in a 3l reflex box tuned to 120Hz handles 200W continuous and is about 96dB/W. About £120 each though, so might be out of your budget...

I had those and I thought they was too heavy. Seen a German page where the basket snap of this reason, and thats in a "hifi" cab under transport, so just a warning there...
