Title: S.E.XY SPEAKER
Post by: coca on April 25, 2013, 01:30:37 PM

It would appear that the FOSTEX FE166e driver is no longer available for the S.E.XY speaker to be used with the S.E.X. amp. Can anyone tell me the  size of that particular driver, so that I can source an alternative?

Thanks in advance,

Bernie.

Bernie,

I used to use FE166E's in alot of enclosures. 

Here's the direct replacement I'd recommend:

I find it pretty hard to tell a difference in the sound of the 166En, and my guess is that in the sealed box design of the Sexy you can get by with prettymuch anything...

Hope that helps,

Cheers!

That's the one I had in mind, I was confirming that it was the same dimensions as the other, so I could use the recomended enclosure for the S.E.X. AMP. Thanks a lot.
