Vendor guidelines - Monacor Electronics:

Monacor is a large German supplier of all things electronic - sort of like a higher quality version of Radio Shack in the U.S. Monacor has several proprietary speaker lines, including some which compete quite effectively with other hig-value lines such as Vifa. Many Monacor drivers are OEM'ed by Harmony Taiwan which has a good and growing reputation. Some outstanding units worthy of special note include:

  1. The SPH-135C, a 5" mid/bass using a woven carbon fiber cone. A perennial Monacor favorite with good FR and excellent Xmax for a 5" driver, this driver is usable well past 5 kHz. Note that if Monacor enjoyed the same distribution as Audax, this driver would likely superceed the HM130C0.  view   response 
  2. The SPH-165KEP, a 6.5" mid/bass using a woven Kevlar cone. Generally excellent FR, usable to past 5 kHz. One of the best Kevlar drivers made by anyone.  view   response 
  3. The SPH-200KE, an 8" mid/bass using a woven Kevlar cone. Generally quite good FR, with usable response out to 3 kHz.  view   response
