Eight Visatons more... I can feel your pain...

Please feel free to feel mine

I recently bought 6 Visatons, 4 Monacor SPH 220HQs and 2 each of the Audyn Copper Max & Jantzen Alumen Z caps, 12 heavy duty tellurium copper binding posts plus other costly sundries for my Cubix rebuild/upgrade. Thankfully it's turned out be a wonderful investment of time and money and they sound absolutely amazing even if I say so myself

Try these as used in Cube 3’s

Cube3 or Cubette?

Agreed but most current headsets use Neodymium magnets and if they are anything to go by the results are very encouraging.

Thanks for that. 3 cm soft dome. Will start beaming earlier than a smaller dome but could be crossed over lower (which is of no use really for my project) . The face plate is huge though (110 mm). That makes a difference for me as I try to get the four tweeters on the smallest rounded over dice shape I can. The ones I linked to with neo magnets are only 52 mm diameter.

Well they might sound like a bag of sh*te but you don't know til you give it a go.

TNT shootout with new speakers under £50

Another thought on the used / 2nd hand front:

What about some sets of 5.1 TV surround speakers?
Cost next to nothing on Ebay and you could strip out the tweeters from those.



This is a set for about 30 pounds on Ebay (in UK).

My credulity is being stretched. But you never know.

They missed a letter off the name of this speaker
