Eminence Alpha-6A - 8 Ohm
Based on 1 reviews
Some of the best midranges I've heard, and I've heard many. Sound is well-rounded and detailed without harshness or objectionable distortion at high levels. Certainly hi-fi quality. Roll-off behavior is very good - textbook 12 db/oct above 5,5 kHz and almost no cone break-up modes to speak of; good dispersion even at higher frequencies; can easily cover the most critical range of 250...5500 Hz. Doesn't need a complex crossover to sound good - in fact, I'm using none (except the active one for bass/mid separation), the driver's natural roll-off is good enough to successfully pair it with a tweeter. And yet robust - they can take some low-frequency abuse...
Eighteensound 6ND430 8 Ohm

I bought these as a replacements for some burned out main drivers on our satellite speakers in a small bar. They sound very good with a surprisingly wide and even frequency range. I have them running with a pair of 15 subs and they comfortably handle fairly loud music when necessary. the build quality is great. No complaints and a reasonable price.
Visaton BG 17 8 Ohm
Based on 6 reviews
Having previously tried the Fane Sovereign 12-250TC 8 TRIPLE Cone, I thought I'd try a Visaton BG17 8ohm. OK, so this is only TWIN cone, and similar types have been around for years, but I have an old plastic enclosure from a stereo system, which is standard 6.5 inch speaker size, but with no tweeter. The idea of having such a wide frequency range without the requirement of crossovers. (No losses!) Everything depends on the actual performance. My hearing is good to 17.5kHz and the sound is the better than ever, nice smooth flat response, but with a rise to 5kHz (rather than the usual 3.5kHz) there's nothing seriously missing for low level monitoring, apart from bass response due to the small size. Thoroughly recommended !
Fane Sovereign 6-100

From the specs sheet I thought it could handle a little bit of lows/mids but unless you cut it high it's useless. My fault, probably, but it can't handle anything without a powerful filter. So I've made a smallest cab for it... money thrown out of the window. Shame 'cause I've only had good experience with other Fane woofers.
