Re: Newbie Jack 10 build(s) in south east London

Info that I got from Eminence was like: "We do not stock the Beta-12B here in the states, so it has not been tested as extensively as the Beta-12A-2." Whoever gave you that bit of nonsense did not work in the engineering department. Completely thorough testing is done with every driver th...

There was a more or less complete redesign of the entire Eminence line in the early 2000s, when DuPont stopped supplying Kapton to the industry for voice coil formers. Most of their existing products ...

Other not Klippel measured that I know is Beta 12B, Gamma 10A and Beta 12B are speakers that I have used in bass cabs and if I remember right, they both...

Re: Newbie Jack 10 build(s) in south east London

The Gamma 10 specs aren't bad, except for xmax. It would take two of them to equal the maximum output of a Beta 10, three to equal a 2510. Eminence Gamma 10A has not been measured with Klippel. Xmax value could be more like 3,5-4 mm if measured. The Xmax value on the Gamma 10A data sheet is the con...
