Dutch & Dutch 8c Review

It might make sense to start a new thread for the 15C to keep the discussion separate from the 8C.

The 15C is still in the development stage, and I think the right time to open a dedicated thread will be during its presentation in Anaheim at the NAMM show. At the moment, apart from a few speculations, nobody knows anything about the 15C ..I've never been so impatient to see speakers released; Just be patient, man!;)

Info is pretty good for this stage
 
It’s difficult to discuss them when we know so very little about them.

Wouldn't 15 inch drivers be a rather poor choice for midrange?
mmm if it is a horn loaded compression driver then they can probably get that down to 600hz and so the mid woofer at 15inch isnt going up that high anymore

eg you could use an eminence

DELTALITE 2515 | 15" which goes up to 1khz before breakup​

mm maybe :-) I don't know what the capabilities of their compression driver are but we are pushing things away from my comfort zone here. A 15" midrange is going to start beaming at 900 Hz even if it really can remain rigid enough for those frequencies, and I prefer not having a crossover in or near the vocal range so wouldn't want a Xover that low anyway.

Is this a true statement?
How far does one extend "among"? If you really stretch it, you could even include these as being among the most accurate:

That said, objectively, the D&D 8c speakers once set up according to the manufacturer's recommendations are more accurate than the majority of speakers. Take a look at their published Spinorama measurements.
