Roman,I don't think I've ever read your explanation why not 2482? We are all on a holy grail path to find a (somehow) available good compression driver that can go down to almost 200hz in domestic conditions and there are not many better candidates. Have you ever finished your examination and testing of 2482 or you were just discouraged by it phenolic diaphragm you don't like. If it's a diaphragm only, Radian aftermarket aluminium ones could improve a transient response, if you here any issues there with an original one.

Gordan, I did not have this driver. I never pursued it exactly because you have mentioned – the phenolic diaphragm. I do not know if the design of this driver will allow using other diaphragms. Also, I do not exactly in the Holy Grail path to find a driver that can go down to 200Hz. Sometime I do express those ideas and then I cool down to it. To have a dedicated Midbass horn convert the frustration from an absence of a 200Hz compression driver into juts some curiosity… BTW, the RCA older driver did reportedly go to down to 200Hz…
