The sub is a Dayton 10HO, I belive the model number is RS265HO, they make a HF one that is more suitable for a larger enclosure but has a much lower Le (good). It's Parts Express' House brand and dedigned by Darin Kazuma.
It's 10"
It sounds fantastic, not muddy, no nasty overtones, etc. Very musical. It's designed as an SQ driver, copper shorting rings, etc. It models out MUCH like the PE Titanic 10 but with lower distortion. I'm not giving it much power and it gets loud enough for a DD 95% of the time, and yes I have expeireinced that other 5% ;)
Best of all, it's affordable, very affordabble, I have yet to find a driver that's so nice for that price but very accurate, they even play pretty high! Antother advantage is that they work in a small vented elcosures, which is a great + and they also work in sealed enclosures, both perform very well albeit many think the sealed allignment is rather lacking.
I'm getting ready to put 2 of them in a mastering room with a pair of Lapinski's, I'll report back, it will be a hell of an SQ test for them.
