Post Subject: What are you going to do with them?Posted by Romy the Cat on: 3/29/2011

I wonder: does it mean that you will take the rest 28 drivers? Hm, are you trying to research the subject of the drivers’ critical mass or become a speaker maker? Be careful with their claims that they will be “manufactured to the same specification as the original unit”. They all claim this but really is never the same. Did you buy the Tanoy spare cones that were made from the “same paper”? I do not say anything bad about fane – they were in past good to my custom orders. Still, my experience with manufacturers suggests that these products are NEVER the same. Also, $480 plus shipping… is it a bit stiff if you ask me. If you need 2 drivers and you suddenly wiling to use Fane Studio 8 then you swallow the bullet and go over. However, if you do for whatever reason consume 28 drivers then it is a lot of money…
