Tek,
 
A mush motor is a woofer with a small and not very powerful magnet/motor system.
 
If you look at what I wrote, it says PD186 almost makes it into the mush motor group. Its specs rate it like a tight woofer, but in reality it shares many parts and some T/S with a mush motor. It behaves more like a mush motor than its specs say, is what I'm saying. Low fs is not a sign of a mush motor.

Cheers for clearing that up Rog

Would work in narrow rear chambers or deep chambers?
 
Out of Rog's list, where would this fall into ?
 
Dont this look good ?

Haven't got the PD184 specs infront of me, but from memory its a bit like a PD184.

I think it would work well in a scoop with a medium size chamber. Also great for reflex. It goes into the general purpose bass drivers list.

@Tek: The Beyma 18G50 or 18G550, especially the 18G50 looks to definatly beat PD186 in scoops.
 
 
Especially how the BL on the 18G50 is 28.8.

Higher BL drivers have sharper power dip in horns between 40-70hz, and sound a bit one note'ish.

I prefer Mid 20's BL for scoops.
