Anarchy-708

Excellent woofers, with fast + tight response. Really nice as a mid/bass as well. 0.7 cu/ft Tuned to 68hz is super punchy and kicks sound amazing.

Great !! Thanks DIY S.G. I look forward to receiving my 3rd pair for a a pair of 3 way towers im building.

Despite it's age, I have yet to see the Anarchy bettered by any 7" woofer for <2kHz application, sealed, vented, open baffle or cardioid. Still the LF output champ with a Klippel verified 12mm xmax. Aluminum cone means zero resonances in pass band with low audible distortion. Competent filtering required, so as always YMMV.

I bought both the 4 ohm and 8 ohm. I mounted the 8 ohm first in the rear deck of my car. The amplifier supplied 150 watts RMS at 4 ohm. I used a Harrison 30hz high pass to avoid damaging lows. The 8 sounded good but the gain was maxed on the amp so I knew that it could handle more. Mind you I do not listen to music super loud. If that is your goal you will have to use a sub with much more surface area. I installed the 4 ohm next. I turned the sub amp off and then adjusted the music to sound it's best (the other speakers are amped). I set the crossover on the amp to about 125hz. Then I set the music to my normal listening level and started adjusting the gain on this sub. I turned it up till it filled in the bottom bass nicely. This woofer has a lot of excursion but you want to be careful using it in IB like I am. I have been using it a few weeks now and it sounds great. I sound deadened the rear shelf and will be working on sound deading as much of the rest of the car I can. The best part is this Anarchy can do the bass duty nicely without distortion till I can make the car more quiet.

I bought two of these guys to use in the Anarchy tapped horn enclosures. It's amazing how much bass they produce for such a small driver. These little guys are monsters.....I couldn't believe how robust and substantial the driver was when I received my package. I'm sure some good speaker designs will come about as a result of these, but I'm very happy using it as a sub for living room where I can tuck it behind the AV stand. Just awesome!

I first bought a couple of Anarchy woofers when they were still being sold by DIYCABLE with ideas of building some little subwoofers. After purchasing them though, I started having grander aspirations of building some floorstanding monitors with them. I decided on building the Ansonica (designed by CJD) and realized I would need 2 more woofers. Fortunately, DIY Sound Group came to the rescue and put them back into production.

I'm very pleased with these woofers. They have a very clean midrange and, with their large excursion, pump out plenty of bass. I have one Anarchy left which is a 4-ohm model. Perhaps I'll have to pick up a tapped-horn flat pack to play with it as a sub :)
