WTB - 7" mids

1740 Views 26 Replies 7 Participants Last post by  MadMaxSE-L
I need another set of mids for my Maxima, as I believe one of my Seas CD18's may be blown:(. I would like to stay with a 7" driver. Give me all your suggestions, as I really haven't established a budget yet - I'll have to see what grabs my attention.

I have about 350wrms @ 4ohms to play with per driver, so I should have ample power to drive most anything I can fit in my doors. This will be in a 2 way setup, and installed with the rest of my system in my sig.

Lemme know whatcha got!

Bump - all this stuff for sale and noone has anything?
Just curious why you are set on 4ohms? I only ask because there are many quality drivers but most of the are 8ohms DIY/home drivers which is what this site was based on when it was created ;)

You bring up a good point. I guess there really is no reason, as even at 8 ohms I should have enough power to run basically anything I can fit into my door...

I suppose I was just used to having 4 ohm drivers:blush:


NOW OPEN TO ALL SUGGESTIONS!
Haha fair enough....Well that being said, I got some LNIB Dayton RS180-4 mids for $70 shipped and I will throw in some extra install accessories for you. Let me know :)
Not that I am selling them, but would you be interested in Mach 5s at all?

You have PM sir!

I don't know, I am honestly not familiar with them; which line?
Can you fit an 8"? I have some Diamond DA8.6s I'm not using. And depending on which I like better, either some ZR800s or some RS225s.

Oh man - if I could find an 8" that could extend up like my Seas to fill my 2-way, I'd be rebuilding my doors:D
Those diamonds would work i bet....Look into and RCF driver, they make a carbon fiber 8 that plays up to 4k i believe.....

Not off-axis they don't. ;)

Which driver? I'm sure the 8's won't sound great to 4k off axis, but mating them to a decent tweeter up to 2.5k or so should be ok, no?

Right - my driver side midbass is horribly off-axis...

You mean like my Diamonds? Flat out to 6KHz.

Fair enough, but how many drivers do? Even the L4, which goes to 17KHz on-axis falls off off-axis.

Of course they all do, but I will still try and choose the lesser of 2 evils...
I have a BNIB pair of Scan Speak 18w8545 7" mids. Very nice mids/mid bass. Shoot me an offer if your interested.

PM sent, but they're probably going to be out of my price range...

Which is why I suggested the Diamonds. If they go up to 6K on axis they should still be usable up around 3K off axis.

Worth looking into then:) I just don't know if I want to rebuild my doors yet...

One last contender;

SEAS Prestige P18RNX/P (H1350) 7" Poly Cone Woofer from Madisound
