    Step 1: Put your $200 speakers next to some $10 speakers.
    Step 2: Film a video pointing out how your $200 speakers are built better than the $10.
    Step 3: Profit.

      Jerry Spann yes it does. The wizzer cone in the middle acts much like a tweeter, (low quality muffled one), to increase the higher frequencies to be usable. so while you may want to think of this as a midrange speaker, it was intended to be a "full range" driver, with of course limitati I ns on the low and high end...
      Such full range designs were very common, and are still often found in many applications.

    What causes those lack of a better term fart noises a "blown" or damaged speaker makes when it seems there's no audible or feeling with your fingers of coil scratching when you push the cone in and out. I've had speakers/subs that sounded ok at low levels but as soon as I put a little more wattage or a little deeper bass note to it it started making those nasty fart noises kinda faint but noticable. What causes those noises?

    The texturing on the plastic cone actually has a side benefit of reducing breakup and reflections. Probably not by much considering how flexible those cones probably are, but it does help them from sounding more awful than they already are. I also tried some time back to take something like that 8" full range driver and see if it could be modded to have even half decent sound for a home audio application. Not out of practicality, but just for the fun of it. And although bass is not really possible, they can be made to have a reasonably ear pleasing mid range which extendeds into the mid treble range... Of course it required some extensive cone treatments and suspension alterations...... But it was possible.. And of course, the whole effort is comparable to polishing a turd, as it can only be polished so much before it smears.... But it was a fun project to teach my son a little about how speakers and acoustics work, and I think that is what mattered. Now he is modding really high quality drivers and getting exceptionally good sound out of them!

    @denshi-oji494 5 років тому

    Another thing to note. A speaker can sound very good, up to the point where you exceed the design capabilities. What I mean is this; A speaker may indeed be very accurate at moderate or low volumes, but may not be capable of the power handling and/or excursion for higher volumes with the same accuracy. So a given speaker malty be one of the best for low volume listening, and be worthless any louder.
    Another thing to note, the size of the magnet does not mean it can also take more power. Power rating is a function of the coil winding(s) and cooling (if any). Over the years there have been many speaker designs. At a few points, some manufacturers played with larger magnet designs using the same components otherwise, just to increase the efficiency of the speaker. There were even designs that incorporated fixed electro-magnet coils with the fixed magnet to increase the efficiency and capabilities of the driver. There was also at least one design where a fixed coil was placed and driven opposite of the moving coil to increase efficiency and capability.
    But generally you can learn a lot by looking at the drivers, not the full story, but enough to let you know if it may be worth a listening test or not. The big thing is to first determine how it will be used and what it will need to meet for your application.

    • @EMFAudio
      @EMFAudio  5 років тому

      I've mentioned the motor size doesn't indicate power handling, but power rating isn't from the coil alone either. If the motor is weak and you dump a bunch of power in it, it won't move enough to cool it. You also can't have a large coil with a small motor unless you're dealing with a cup style. In other words, if the motor is 3" diameter it won't have a 2" coil in it, so that's a good indicator of what's going on there.

    • @EMFAudio

      So to be clear, on a manufacturers channel, we're supposed to make videos that don't have any of our product in them, ever? If it was an ad, would we have included 5 other speakers that aren't even remotely comparable in size, cost, or quality? You could literally interpret this video as "other stuff is cheaper, I'll buy that because it's cheap"

    Did the cheap 4 inch and 8 inch speakers come from a Stern Pinball machine? I ask because those are the exact speakers Stern have used in their games for many years. While they didn't sound too bad inside a pinball cabinet (possibly helped with some EQ), once upgraded to better speakers, the difference is incredible! Stern were really pushing the limits of the 8 inch trying to make it act like a sub (which really didn't work and just caused horrible distortion). Seems like they have finally realized the error of their ways as Stern's newest games now use a proper LF driver in the cabinet and co-axial speakers in the back box that sound a thousand times better.

    • @EMFAudio

      @@EMFAudio Thanks for the reply. I'm aware that only the Limited Edition models have an upgraded speaker package. However, ever since The Beatles Pinball was released late last year, Stern have been using a new 8 inch driver without a whizzer cone in their standard Pro games. It's unbranded and I'm sure it's still fairly cheap, but it sounds a heck of a lot better than the twin cone driver shown in this video. It can actually produce some decent low end! I believe the standard back box speakers have been changed too.

    also wattage is not the main driver of how powerful a speaker will sound, it is only half the story. you can have 20 watts play 98DB in all the same Spectrum as a 100 watts but will cost a lot more due to it being a better speaker. (the 20 watts) so what you need to look for is Decibels at Frequency First and the lower the Watts it takes to do them! (think about it, if you plug 5 of them, you get your 100 watts worth in watts BUT you have 5 times 98 DB filling the room... i think that might be more than 98 DB at that point.)

      @@EMFAudio well you would not really save, those speakers cost a lot more. tho you also have to choose what size you would put in carefully and that will probably cost more than the Amp.
      by Example, my guitar Amp speakers from my "Traynor 15 inch X2 Yorkville 1970 Cabinet" are 37 watts RMS each, when the guitar AMP's tubes died, i used those in place of my 120 watts Subwoofers and unlike them, the speakers were making the whole house shake and sounded 10 times better... tho they only sounded good till 3KHz when put on the normal output of a stereo. (tho the guitar sounded amazing) now, they were not able to take the same power so now i cannot put the volume passed half, not that i need to at that level.
      so if i had many in series, i would probably make more than just my house shake and maybe the neighbors as well...
      i guess what i mean is if you take high quality speakers that take less watts for the same loudness and build a good cabinet, you can propel the whole range louder with less distortion and heat (amp) built in the house. (100 watts sounding like 500, in my case 37W RMS, 90W max, sounding like 200W max.)
      tho guitar speakers are a bad example for "what to look for" since they are build to project a certain range and they do not "look" like they would be loud.

Lighter speakers, no amplifier to drive them and no electrical load on the alternator of the car so effectively you end up with a faster car and get more miles to the gallon.... So really, which are the better speakers? It's not always about maximum power output. It's about matching the components to deliver the sound quality that you should be getting at a sound pressure level that works best for you.... It means nothing to have the biggest and baddest components, so many people have spent so much money on what was meant to be the highest powered, best looking, only to come to the conclusion that it sounds like rubbish....

      You'd want something that is essentially marine rated, which is something I could make custom but not something we normally make. But, one consideration with that, 800 watts is roughly 80 amps of draw. Your motorcycle doesn't have the battery or charging power to support that. I suspect you have somewhere between 30-50 amps of charging, you can't realistically support more than about 300-400 watts of actual power.

      That speaker is the highest efficiency and sounds absolutely terrible. It's the second worse sounding speaker in the bunch. Efficiency has nothing to do with sound quality and in often cases the less efficient speaker sounds better. And just for point of reference, the speaker you're talking about sells on the retail market for around $5.

      That's exactly how a lot of people end up buying garbage equipment. They look at the "build quality" not knowing what they're looking at, the price looks like a good deal when it's too good to be true, and RMS ratings are literally whatever the manufacturer decides to put on it. This has been displayed with Rockville lately.

And hard to beat even by modern day speaker, mind you it's the entire DESIGN that does that stamped baskets are such a small useless point then.
