SPH5M
This is a great driver for a transmission line or tapered pipe design. Good quality, if basic, chassis - nice and rigid with a chunky magnet. Nice smooth midrange making it easy to integrate with a range of HF units. I used the Fountek NeoX1.0 Ribbon Tweeter which is similarly an impressive unit. A good combination.
Thankyou for your review !

Excellent advice from will as usual and exactly what I wanted. These have improved the sound of my current speakers and taken them to another level. Sounds superb I can hear tonal difference's between things that I never heard before. Superb bass drivers dig so deep.
As usual will has been outstanding.
Brilliant to deal with always helpful and gives great service.
What a brilliant capacitor, from first listen exceptional clarity and depth. Bargain will be buying more.
Swapped out the 30 yr old AlCap capacitors for the Audyn Q4 on Wills recommendation (along with a ferrofluid change). What a difference, added so much more definition and clarity. Very impressed. Audyns are a fair bit bigger size wise but fitted easily enough on the board and the access aperture on the TDL Studio 1's.
Good quality, fast postage, perfect! Thanks
Can fault the service and you always seem to have what others don’t, this can be critical when your hobby involves restoring vintage hifi .
