ya but alot of people can draw up a sub and say it will do this and this and they have never even tried something like that. if they have actual pics then you can atleast see it has been built.

yea its all good its just exciting to see someone else using the stuff you do. im going to design my own sub. its on sale but im not spending the money for an unproven driver.

Bill, you are a designer correct?

Look at the spider on it. Just a single spider... Think of how it will move linearly...

I can tell you right now:

1) The voice coils will 95% likely scrape the gap because it wont move linearly

2) The mounting depth is huge becaus he is using two 8" baskets!

3) a 1/4" steel rood going to a dust cap? Can you say force? lol

This is some guys dream. The VC design is already in use. Thinking one spider will keep that long of a voice coile linear is idiocy...

Hyperdynamics has a similar design already patented... I believe JBL & Aluma pro uses it in some of their subs...

I agree that only 1 spider will have its' drawbacks.

I would agree to such design if the 8" bakets were flipped the other way giving a spider on both outside area of the coils. Also the little rod thing, thats no good. Your putting all the force into the little area... Plus the WEIGHT that adds... Thats a SERIOUS drawback IMHO.

When you add more spiders you have more to overcome, making the motor work harder...
