bcpballer64 Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 K so I pulled these 8" woofers out of a set of 25 year old Bose 301 speakers my gpa gave me. The surrounds were trash so i just replaced them with some $7 woofers off of partsexpress.com. Anyway wth is this? It is a square motor, have I stumbled across something awesome or just weird?

jsawdy212 Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 its just old school... round motors have the same motor force just with less material, more cost effective Quote 2007 caliber 2 Fi ssd 18's rd audio 3250 xs power d3100 (need 2 more) stock alt (soon to be singer 350a) 2.75:1 4th order in progress!

bcpballer64 Posted November 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 Ah i see, to me pyshically they dispersion of the motor force would not be radially equal...just seems weird they would try that. Anyone have any other info on it?

S15_Silvia Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 Magnet looks quite shifted or something- either way, many old woofers I've seen have square magnets. Most recently were the dash speakers I pulled out of a '71 Chevelle. Quote 2016 Subaru BRZ | Sony XAV-AX100 | Rockford Fosgate DSM 4080 & DSM 40ix | On 6/6/2012 at 6:32 PM, 'LZTYBRN' said: 3.

Just shear age, the foam surround just dry-rotted and disintegrated over time. I might see if forevrbumpn could recone them and do something with them.

DylanH Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 I've got a set of bose kinda like that sitting next to me. They sound pretty good. I haven't looked at the actual speakers in them tho. I have a speaker in my shop that has a very interesting magnet.
