IMHO, They only do simple acoustic music well. Ask them to do anything with weight,bass or complex passages and they poop out. Plus, all but the best have a tilt in the upper mids that I can't deal with. One driver just can't do it all. It's a music preference thing. Like I said, if you like girl w/guitar or small string stuff then they're great! This is only an opinion and that's all.Take with with a grain of salt. However, I can remember a time when I thought single drivers were the only game in town. Audio is a journey and we sometimes fall for something different and not always better.
Single driver speakers - opinions
1.Design - what is IYO the best design and why?
2.Sound - How would you describe the sound in comparison to other speaker designs?
3.Amplification - what works and what doesn't?
4.Is the WAF stopping your from moving in that direction?
What do you like or dislike about SD spks?
DIY v.s Commercial designs - Pros and Cons.
Feel free to express yourself and your thoughts about the Single Driver design speakers in this thread.
Ideas, your projects, pics, experiances are all fun and welcome.
From my experiance with at least two SD commercial design that actually worked like a charm, I have to say that I am seriously concidering it as my next DIY project.
Awesome speakers when done right.
Cheers
