Product Description
Manufacturer Part Number: PS95-8
Dayton Audio's PS95-8 3-1/2" point source full range driver delivers the full spectrum of sound - including clear, natural highs - with excellent detail and articulation. No tweeter required!
Key Features:
Dayton Audio PS95-8 3-1/2" Point Source Full Range Driver 8 Ohm
The newest addition to Dayton Audio's successful family of Point Source full-range drivers, the PS95-8 model features a lightweight, curved-profile paper cone made of 100% natural fibers, for dynamic and articulate sound that extends from a punchy, detailed bass to the highest treble. The compact 3-1/2" size enables great sonic performance in small satellite speakers on the desktop, or in narrow "needle"-style tower cabinets for filling a larger room.
The copper-anodized aluminum phase plug of the PS95-8 is more than just beautiful - it provides enhanced dispersion and eliminates the resonance from a conventional dust cap. And the optimized, high-strength ferrite magnet structure features a copper pole cap that reduces resolution-sapping inductance and lowers distortion. Our smallest Point Source series full-range driver isn't small on engineering, or performance!

These sound great for the size, actually produce a fair amount of bass and decent highs.

I bought a pair of these (from Parts Express directly) for a portable speaker project about 2 months ago. My primary design goals were to find the best compromise between audio performance and, naturally, portability. Price, as always, was a factor, too. I put them in a 10 (W) x 6 (H) x 8 (D) box incorporating both a 1 x 3-inch front-firing port and also a 1.75 x 2-inch down-firing port. They took a little time to fully break them in (the surround is quite stiff, so it takes a bit), but they were pretty awesome right from the start. To sum up, it you want to build a speaker than is truly portable without sacrificing Hi-Fi sound, this is the choice. The mids and highs are excellent - as expected - but the bass note is what stands out the most. It is rich and full, completely lacking the 34;tinny34; sound of a typical portable speaker. (FYI - total project cost is about $150. That includes bluetooth amp board, rechargeable battery pack, LED's, controls, handle, etc., etc...)
