Re: light 8" speakers

Hi ned,
We need to know what is important to you.

Also will the enclosure be sealed, ported or open. You could still get a nice sounding unit even with the back open (search for "open baffle") but less bass.

Is fullrange "darkness" important?
some really efficient fullrange speakers could give a very musically involving performance, but most efficent fullrange speakers have no bass in a small enclosure.

OR might want to ensure that the bass could really pump as most (normal) people only judge sound quality by the bass level. It is a boom box after all. you would probably need a tweeter with this sort of driver, but this option generally speaking, would have lower efficiency.

hollowboy's suggestion of the SN-8MB if you can get them, could sound very nice but you'd need a tweeter. some well controlled mid bass and efficient.

It's ALWAYS about compromises.

just some more ideas. I really like this project. Please let us know what you come up with.

Regards Philip
