#1 Supravox GMF 400’s on Ebay

Post by vinylnvalves »

All this talk about speakers on the forum reminded me I had a notification about some Supravox bass drivers, on eBay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUPRAVOX-400 ... 1438.l2649
Could use in a Quasar on steroids :wink:
I do like my Supravox 400-2000’s, best bass drivers I have owned.

Good spot, great driver but really only suited to ported box ( or horn :roll: )
Wish they would do an affordable one with a weaker magnet and higher Qts.

400 is being replaced by the 380 for about the same price as these. Weaker magnet and higher Qts... higher Fs too.

Still not really an OB unit as Qts=0.3

. Don’t forget you can always weaken the motor strength with a resistor... A strong motor can always be weakened not the other way. You sacrifice quality for bass extension, the Linkwitz transforms allow augmented bass boost, his last offering uses Qts =0.2 drivers in open baffle for the subs with the Seas 26lroy drivers. You just need power.... amp power is cheap and clean with Hypex etc.
