Full Range comparison


Thinking about addinfg a 2nd system next year, Trying to figure out best full range fora  845 amp i plan to purchase.
Thoughts on ,
1)SEAS Exotic/w xover.
2)Seas cheaper line of FR
3)Japenese Full Range offered on ebay., which are less than 1/2 the price of the Exotics, and are cool looking. 
I listen to classical /voice/chamber/orchestra. 
FR will be 8 inches, no ribbon, no tweeter.

can you provide a link to one of the Japanese FR on ebay?  I'm just curious.
FEASTREX FR bid on ebay, best sounding speaker inm the world, bar  none. Open bid $7K. well worth it. 
Ck out the YT vid on the sound of that FR. super unreal, just how i like it, super crystal clear, tons of timber and glistenings on the top, mids  bright and lively. 
Japenese Full Range offered on ebay., which are less than 1/2 the price of the Exotics, and are cool looking.
Less than 1/2 price of the Exotics should be in the $400 range, not $7k. 

The Feastrex remind me of the Voxativ drivers with their huge magnet assemblies.  Also very expensive.



Yes, well i can get the Exotic 8 froma  swedish dealer for $500. madisound wants $800. ,,,anyway,,i figured out my speaker for System Two. 
Guy on ebay sells a  clone of the scan speak neo Illuminato tweet, Best tweet in the world, Neo magnet  makes speakers sing like no othermagnet, ck out the YT video on neo magnets' strength to draw power away from amp to the driver, 
Truly a  revelation. If it does not havea  neo mag, i am not interested,,,well although my SEAS Thor has been champs for these past 18 yrs, Richard Grew down here in New Orleans soldiered the xover wires back in 2002,,,,time to move on. 
No I've not herad the scan Illuminator's vs the Excel Millenium's, which have been champs in all tweets past 15+ yrs,,seems this Scan Neo tweet, Illuminator will most certainly give SEAS a  run for its FQ's...My hunch is Scan speak will  shoot out the SEAS at 1st pop. 
Now for the lower FQ's, Going witha  japenese FR, 6.5, same seller that offers the SCan speak clone.
Has a whizzer,,,I don't like the FR w/o the whizzzer,, and the FR 6.5 is the limit,,the 5 is the IDEAL size/, but the 6,5 has the neo magnet. 
I need a  xover for this pairing. anyone know who makes xover designs? Other than madisound, as i am not purchasing the drivers from them. Only the xover parts. 
The Scan tweet is the Beryllium BE which i am refering to. 
has the neo. 

I will need a  xover design service for this pairing. Something very simple,,,madisounds' xover for the Illuminator kit looks to me wayyyyyy over done. 
For a  2 way, thats alottttt of parts. More parts = more interference with the driver's intentional voicing.
