    I have a couple of pairs of those 10 inch whafedales, I have one pair in my caravan, the larger magnet versions of the wharfdale range are all very good.
    I have the super 3s/5/8/10/12 and rs15's all nice in their own way. And all good for open baffles...

    I have a single of Phillips 10"that has a slightly better tone, along with the Whitley sentorian 816 that have a very nice tone...as they say.. the tone is in the cone...
    I also have a pair of those cg10 and matching tweeters, I will have to give those a try one day

    I bought a brand new pair of (old stock) HF1016 many years ago, but found them far too forward, as is common with high flux drivers of the era. Better suited to large reflex or horn enclosures. I didn't keep them, nor the 12" ones I also had. Worth a small fortune these days I dare say.

    Always wanted to try Baker Laboratory Standard 12 units, but never could find a pair.

    I'm waiting to try my recently purchased sixties 10" x 7" Isophon wide range drivers in cabinets, should be interesting. Tested them loose and efficiency seems high. (see thumbnail)

    Well one of them is, I assume, an EMT TSD15. I wouldn't spit at that!

    Sadly not. A couple of poxy Shures and a poxy DL103.

    (I'm sure an EMT cartridge would only be an expensive disappointment compared to the Deccas anyway.)

    Actually, just remembered, I also have a couple of the old Ortofon mono Tondose with the EMT, although I have never played them as they need rebuilding.
