P Audio IMF HPs 18" 600W

[luffy]

Any feedbacks about this driver applied in a W-Bin box, or in an L-36 box? I've heard it performs well in a double driver cab set-up. Paano kaya kung sa horn-loaded na cab, tatagal po kaya ito? Thanks!

this speaker intrigues me a lot.  ito yta ang pinakamura sa p.audio 18".  around 6500 only  . my friends keep on telling me that it sounds good and yet it's reasonably cheap.  it has a 4" copper vcoil assembly and steel-stamped frame.  i'll try to ask my friends if we can take a closer look at this model and share some pics here.

You are lucky, indeed! Please inform us about its performance in a particular bin. i am hoping to get mine soon. however it says 500 to 1000 watts. what do you think? what is compared to the T&T anf the Crown 18" that belong to the same price category. getting excited! thanks in advance.

I have friends who use the manifold subs (EV MTL2) and this is the speaker installed on that box.  Some also use this woofer for their subzeros or wbox.  They do not report any problems with this woofer and it sounded great when I heard them on some occassions.  I guess it's better to trust P Audio since many members here have tested and recommend it.

Sir sa pampanga sa dau mabalacat meron din dealer ang p-audio sa music box 2 enterprises.

@Jef2 thanks for the picts! that is really great.

and, after knowing that an original coil costs 1k, we found another reason to go for it.

Besides, P audio drivers are known for its quality.

any recommended box for this driver aside from the W-box, and the double-driver-cabinet-designs?

it was also mentioned to me that this voice coil design is very similar with the ev evx speaker series.  it's called the advanced HeatWick™ design which 'wicks' heat away from the voice coil. 

pic of an ev recone kit:


if this speaker model uses this voice coil design technology at a bargain price,  no doubt you can really maximize your investment.

i was also informed that groups have been using this speaker to any type of enclosure design.

hope this helps.

NahanAp k0 din it0ng old t0pic hehe.  BkT kya it0ng IMF HP18 anG pinaka-0k sa dual18 caBs tulad ng manif0ld subs namin at yung latest na MB379 caBs?  Sa 4 na 18 incHes m0del ng P.audio, it0 kasi ang "entry Level" per0 swak ito sa mga dual18 suBs in terms of SPL at resp0nse. . . 

[Jef2]

i think it's on the cone thickness.  hindi kasi kasing kapal ng cone ng imf as compared to the other 3 p-audio 18" models.  a thinner cone means more defined (bass) response like speakers used for musical instruments amps.  and the imf uses ribbed type cones as well kaya better bass reproduction and more durable than flat cones. the imf also has a single spider design unlike the rest.  in my experience a single spider design can move (excurse) faster than a dual spider lay-out.  lastly, my friend from the states mentioned that he remembers that the imf hp18s has been a favorite o.e.m. for some branded lower variant dual18 subs like eaw and ev models.

  For the DIY guys i have tested the IMF on this ''PROJECT SUB" similar to the RCF 4PRO Series Subs and it works really great!
      The massive bass it produces almost matched my subzeroes.

sir codeone,

DIY din ba ung array mo sa website mo?

[CodeOne]

  Mga sirs nkakahiya man eh DIY lng yung line array ko copied from NEXO GEO S12, but i'm proud  to say that they are loaded with good components and matched internal networks, even my new project subs were all home made, medyo nasawa na kasi ako sa fiberglass coating kaya nag experiment ako sa rigid polyurethane finish.

[maestro_dese_8]

sir share mo naman saminline array mo baka jan kana sumikat.. anong speaker at size gamit mo?
