Dan308 Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I'm thinking of building a pair of small speakers to use as my mains consisting of Heresy parts. I was listening to my system tonight and one of my mains made a very distorted noise while playing Steely Dan. I don't think I hurt it but at the levels I listen to, I think I need to look for other speakers for mains. I have limited space in my room so I was thinking of using KV-55 for mids and Crites CT-125 for tweets.My question is, Is there a 10" woofer that will be as close as possible to the Heresy 12" woofer? Perhaps the Alpha-10? My cabs will not be as wide as regular Heresys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest " " Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I'd give the alpha 10 a thumbs down....its only good from 150hz to 700hz...the combo of drivers suggested would sound very top heavy....you sound definitely need a sub. above 700hz and below 150hz the impedance skyrockets. The SPL below 150hz is probably in the high 80's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan308 Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 I have a sub in the system. Is there a 10" that would be more suitable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 What would you want to spend? That might be the first question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan308 Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 not really sure yet but I'd like to get some ideas of the cost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moray james Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Dan: you can have a look at B&C as they have a number od ten inch drivers which might do the job. Keep up posted.
