Looking for exactly the same thing.
I have been told the P Audio 600w for £90 on Blue Aran are good, Fane 600lf pro also but my budget is about £80 less then yours lol BMS 15 could be a good choice

Andy from BlueAran recommend the Oberton 15XB700 and theres quite a good response for them. im going to try other oberton ones too.

You might find the 15XB700 has a bit of a heavy cone for kicks. Compare it to the FANE 15XB and the moving mass is 1.5x as much (104g vs. 158g). This is going to affect the speed of the cone, punch and musicality. Oberton may have more control at the lower end but I'd consider something in-between the two.

I can confirm the Oberton 15XB700, I had 4 of them in ported cabs. It is more of a sub driver (heavy cone, big Xmax) with lower sensitivity. In my opinion, You want to look at light cone drivers if you want to use them up to 180Hz.

Thomman driver is good value but not 100% sure its right for the job. Only 500w and still a heavy cone. I'd imagine great for sub only but not such a good transient response.
P.Audio E15-600S or Fane Sovereign 15-600LF at the lower end. P.Audio more subby, Fane more kicky.. phone up Blue Aran and ask for Jon or Andy for the best price. 18Sound 15LW1401 or BMS 15S430V2 at the top end. Might seem a bit pricey but speak to Nigel at Lean Business and he might be able to work something out for you. Both these are more general purpose than the Oberton, will play nicer as kicks but are still focussed on low end bass.

I'd say the 15W750 is going the other way, its more of a general purpose bass driver, would be on the light and fast side. I'm sure it would do great kick and sound very musical but not what I'd call your typical sub driver.

I`d try the B&C 15NDL88 if you want to go higher than you could with a dedicated sub chassis but still dont lose to much low end.
and again, RCF LF15N401 for 220€ @ toutlehautparleur is amazing price. heavy cone but strong motor aswell to accelerate it. |

do you think 15NDL88 is suitable for the b&c sub15 box (40hz cutoff) |
