Zuki,
Awaiting your 10" speakers review.

Sunny

Perhaps they are better against a "beat up old amp" but jeeeze how much lower than 30Hz do you need to go. The E string on a Bass guitar gets as low as 41 HZ...and a 5 string even higher than 30 hz!!

listening to speakers and having them sound as good five feet away in a 240 SF room and 50 feet away in a 2400 SF room is a whole different experience and requires a whole different set of technological parameters and a huge stretch of the imagination to make that palatable not to mention a driver that can push enough air that far to deliver even an E string's fundamental frequency at 50 feet.

i think these 8" are probably great for your bedroom, or nursing home gig, like Kingfrog said for a room approx. 250SF,

BUT
i think if was to use them in my last gig which i played for 600+ people in a VERY large hall, even as monitors, these 8" would NOT suffice...i would probably blow them, and if not they would not put out the quality sound i'm used to hearing from my monitors.

just my opinion, i will continue to use my QSC 12" powered or mackie 450's for monitors, LOVE my QSC's :-)

And the peepee contest continues

Forgive my absolute ineptness...or blindness...but what IS the exact model number (and manufacturer) of these little marvels??? Have I missed something?

Here is the Ebay link with all the info..as was noted in my first post..

ykc,

follow the link on the very first post

I did buy the 10's, we will see over the weekend, as I should get them on Friday.

I used to have some Carvin 15's but they were just way to big to haul around.

Bill congrats on the 10's good choice should work out great with the New S900....also good to see your feeling better too.

I too will have the 10s tomorrow. I played a fairly large room tonight to 'rocker' type younger nursing folks. I cranked up and these little gems DELIVERED (I still only had them on 2pm). Man, I cannot believe how terrific they sound - extremely clean and plenty of punch. The 10s will be the road and 8s studio - all I need
