Low distortion drivers for sub-bass in shallow sealed cabinets

[Svend P]

Give a link to specs and/or measurements please

I thought it was a mistake that someone revived an almost two-year-old thread, but it seems you've been in decision paralysis ever since?

Rawcatt doesn’t have klipple sb / redcat / wavecrap all have been measured accurately.

Check out Gus line from resonix. He’s also got ptr line that’s even thinner coming soon. I ordered four Gus 15s putting 2 in a 2.5cf box with a speakerpower 8000 watt amp lol. My wife wouldn’t approve any large subwoofers in our living room so they will be end tables. I have 8 of the sb subs under my bed and they work great.

Those look pretty cool. Not super cheap though.

since you are the manufacturer they will give you better prices than SB trust me

Yes, I'm aware wholesale / OEM prices will be lower. The drivers look waaay better than the SB shallow drivers too, I wasn't really saying they were too expensive. Not sure I am aware of any shallow mount drivers that looks comparable to these based on the presented data.

I currently don't use any shallow mount drivers, so not necessarily in the market. But possibly something for a future revision of the Inkognito subwoofer.

The sb shallow actually look pretty cool in person weirdest part is they are actually a dome with a cone glued on.

I'm sorry for the confusion, I was referring to the performance. I've used and installed the SB woofers in custom installations, so I have seen them. I wasn't referring to how they look.

Haha, not quite, my priorities changed, but this thread was a great learning experience for me. I hope others continue to find it useful. That Redcatt driver does look special.

RedCatt Twiggy 12 is another affordable alternative and instead of SB checkout WaveTech ThinPro Shallow subs they are far better than SB

That Redcatt Twiggy 12 does not look bad in Vance Dickason's review

and quite tempting at this price:
