    ETA given was this Friday; which may be an issue with the Holidays. Either way they are all but here

    Glad to hear it
  3. sundownz
    Looks great !

    Just today through the 25th -- so we are allowing the weekend of black friday.

    There is a black friday special today through the 25th on the whole NeoPro line

    I had to totally re-vamp the project as the suppliers I was working with had major issues... had to write it all off as a loss. I should have a new thread up soon with the new project; based on the SA-8 v.2 frame.

    I just got the final iteration stock coils yesterday to confirm the gap spec; so we'll be running production shortly.

    The 10" 4 ohm model just came in today so I decided to take a few pictures of them all together. We've had the 10" in 8 ohm for some time now. At this time all sizes 6.5 / 8 / 10 are all in stock in 4 and 8 ohm coils. * Not everyone realizes it; but the 10" model has a separate motor and a 2.5" coil compared to the 2" on the other sizes. * 6.5" model * 8" model * 10" model

    We'll make the 19th the last day for this. Our current ETA is arrival at our shop the 23rd (+/- a day or two).

    Indeed -- I am super happy with them so far And yes, allergies and congestion are terrible... took medicine for it for years but really made my head feel weird all the time so I quit.

    Little too big for the factory magnetizer to fully saturate.

    We've made close to 100 of the Hi-X 12s so far -- but I believe we can make 20-25 more as it stands now. We've been charging $55 extra for it.

    It was for 12s only -- it jumped up to the 15" Z v.3 spider size and the 15/18 coil length. Many of our guys gained about a 1 dB using them compared to stock in burps and music classes if we were able to match the spider to their peaks

    My camera was dead this morning -- charged it up and took this video over lunch today:

    We still have 100+ of them available.

    As far as the T/S specs are concerned the box suggestions won't change any meaningful amount from what we have now for most users. A bit larger box would allow you to more easily utilize the full stroke of the driver, though.

    Unfortunately I damaged the 12" early (1 coil is at 2x Re -- one winding is out on one side so will also change BL by about 25%) on so that is not possible until I get more cones in (only have 1 of each for now). I can measure the 10" once it gets fully charged; we are working on getting our own magnetizer by the time these are production but for now I'll have to send it off to get production level motor force
  19. sundownz
    That would work on the prototypes but on production with the pole mods the dust cap would get knocked right off and/or a hole punched in it

    For either model woofer it will be no less than 3 months; likely closer to 5-6
  21. sundownz
    I saw some folks expressing concerns over the "SD" of the cones... here are a few photos : * 10" Z v.3 Cone // 10" Z v.4 Cone * 12" Z v.3 Cone // 12" Z v.4 Cone * 12" Z v.3 Cone Diameter with 1/2 Surround * 12" Z v.4 Cone Diameter with 1/2 Surround * Total SD difference is only 10% * 10" Z v.3 Cone Diameter with 1/2 Surround * 10" Z v.4 Cone Diameter with 1/2 Surround * The 10" frame is slightly over-sized... so it's actually slightly more SD

    The 10" is done and drying; should be able to play tomorrow. I'll be a tad more careful this time *laughs* Of course I should be safe with the 8 3/8" spider vs. the 9 1/4" on the 12" model as I shouldn't be able to reach quite the level of throw! This is the first 10" woofer with 3" coil that I've built that I didn't hate every second of... gives me a good feeling and I cannot wait to test it ! * Left to right : Z v.4 10 / Z v.4 12 / Z v.3 12
  23. sundownz
    The 18" surround is a bit larger than the one on the 12" as it gets a 10 1/8" spider vs the 9 1/4" on the 12

    I have noted some doubt on whether all of these new parts will be of major benefit (not in this thread, of course, but I do see alot of things around the internet) -- what I say to that is; stay tuned for the results !
  25. sundownz
    Here is the wire I knocked loose -- you can see it through the vent. The piece hanging off is the part after the connection is cut so I can still play the driver (eg: not shorting out on the motor). Coils of this type have four windings -- I broke just one so I am running on "one and a half" coils in the video.
