Yeah I understand that but they are probably twice what they are worth on a normal market at best tbh. I have uckily found the beauty of full range drivers that produce music the way I like nit and cost a fraction of what multi driver speakers cost. A bit of work is required but the end result is superb imo. Some of these old drivers are fabulous and a audio bargain

Yes Grant I know they are probably overpriced but they do sound fantastic... once heard never forgotten...Originally Posted by struth
I used Lowther full range drivers for a while and they sounded absolutely superb for certain music types, but not for all... what the Lowthers did they did very well indeed, and they did have a certain 'magic' about them but they were fraught with problems... which made me sell them in the end.. just to much of a finicky product to live with
I also made a pair of Voigt pipe speakers using some Fostex full range drivers which were great fun to make and to listen to..... however I still moved them on and I went back to multi driver's....
