A driver suitable for OB will usually have a tight suspension. I like the looks of the Supravox stuff a lot; the PHY is nice though- we've had the 12", 8" and 6" units. I like the 6" because it makes more sense to run a woofer with it, and otherwise its built to be very light and fast and does much better at the highs than you might expect, even if a whizzer were involved.
I'm serious about this woofer thing. Don't be thinking you'll somehow get away without a crossover to limit the excursion on the main driver; otherwise you'll be in for a struggle that never ends.
At low levels they can sound quite good but you turn things up and it falls apart.
