CSS SDX12

[edouble101 314]

Has anybody used these? Interesting specs - XBL^2 motor design, copper coil, 3 shorting rings in the motor, high xmax. You can pick two of these up for $519 plus shipping(?).

 

For car audio use they look like they ought to be good SQ subwoofers with good low end extension in the right enclosure.

I think they look fantastic and have given them a lot of thought, but just don't fit my needs at this time. I forget the specs now but IIRC they work in decent sized enclosures.

They were supposed to be coming out with a pretty stout 15" version that had my interest as well, but last update I saw they were having supplier issues.

I thought they had the 15" but discontinued it.

They did, the Subduction line has been around for a while. That 12" is their recent redesign of the 12" model. They had a new 15" model in the works, has yet to come to be though. Here is the thread from their forum: http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/creative-sound-solutions/34213-sdx15-mk-ii.html

My front stage is going to be, by shear coincidence, all CSS.

Their tweeters and mids look fantastic. I would have a machine shop trim the mounting flange on those mids though.

BTW holy shit the 15" would be insane.

Flange on my VWR's isn't bad. Actually had to notch the mounting hole about half the flange width to make room for the terminals.

I thought they looked like oversized baskets like the TB W4's I had.

I loved my ert26 tweeters and wanted to buy another pair until I seen they were discontinued. I was looking at the 15" a while back as well.

Brad what drivers will you be using for your front stage?
