Hi 8" full range drivers wanted for Classic 400 boxes. All suggestions considered. Thanks Martin

Available from Farnell. Visaton BG20. Good spec and nice quality. Very reasonable price too. You can also find these on ebay.

Thank you Geoff. These are very reasonably priced indeed. I can get 4 delivered incl. tax for under £100! Have you heard these in horns? Martin

Not personally, but I know they have been. Do some Googling and you'll see.

Just noticed the original link I posted is dead. This one should be OK.

Here's a horn design that uses them.

I only have experience of two full range drivers.. the first were Fostex used in a pair of home made 6' Voigt Pipes, I think they were 206's, and I quite liked them, however the Lowther's I used in a Acousta cabinet were something else..

I would highly recommend the Lowther drivers and if you can get a cheap broken pair I believe Lowther will still fix them which would work out much cheaper than buying a new pair of Lowther's

I ran my Lowthers with just 1.5w of SET amp and they sounded lovely

Those drivers Geoff linked to seem to be an absolute bargain though

Those drivers Goeff linked to seem to be an absolute bargain though

Who's Goeff?
