Arash Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I was just searching for B&C DCM50 and ran into partsexpress. they got a good promotion for this driver. the original price is ~650USD but they are letting them go for 391USD! thought someone might need a pair. maybe it's an old news, I don't know. http://www.parts-express.com/bc-dcm50-2-neodymium-midrange-compression-driver-8-ohm-4-bolt--294-5907 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beeker Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Does look good. For the money though the radian drivers in my opinion are a very good option 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest David H Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 yeah but I don't know how is it compared to the BMS 4592 or Radian 950-PB or Faital Pro HF-200 Since it is used for a 3-way, and is recommended for crossovers down to 400hz, the DCM-50's only competitor in this list of drivers is the is the BMS 4592. Both the B&C and BMS are great drivers. I prefer these to the other in the list because they do not use metal diaphragms. To my ears, the metal diaphragms tend to be less forgiving. I have never heard the Radian, though I have read good reports of its performance. The HF-200 is a good all around rugged driver, it is the least expensive of the bunch, and performs well. I find the Titanium diaphragm a bit harsh at times, but for general use it does the job. In terms of price and performance, the B&C DE750, and DE-85TN are excellent drivers and more suitably categorized with the HF-200. I will make it a point to get my hands on the Radian for listening tests, Dean speaks highly of Radian products. Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg357 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I understand what opinions are, and I'm only stating mine, the dcm is just a mid, as such I'd include the bms4591, old school magnet, driver in the comparables list. however ALK makes a strong case for the dcm in khorn installations. its a driver who's sweet spot freq rangewise matches that of the khorn freq xo's. as such this is a great 2" driver for those khorn tweakers. the hf200 in my mind is a two-way driver. it beats the others in two way systems but can't beat two drivers covering the same freq range, imo. great two way driver, tho bump 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
