Brand: Seeburg

#37 Seeburg X8: $2,169.00 Passive Thomann $2,169.00 eBay

Same family: the Seeburg X1 (smaller model, rated 3.4/5), the Seeburg X2 (smaller model, rated 3.6/5), the Seeburg X4 (smaller model, rated 3.9/5) and the Seeburg X6 (smaller model, rated 3.9/5).

Pros: A passive coaxial 15 inch PA speaker with loud output and coverage that stays consistent around the horn. Bass reaches about 69Hz (-3dB) in vendor Spinorama data, and the coaxial 15-inch design claims 134dB from a 22.5kg cabinet. Preference scores of 3.33 standalone and 6.14 with an ideal subwoofer come with a coverage pattern that stays consistent around the horn. Measured bass extension of 69Hz (-3dB).

Cons: Listening-window narrow-band deviation is 0.571, the worst in this ranking, so the midrange response is noticeably uneven. It is a passive cabinet that needs an external amplifier and processor, and the price is high next to powered 15-inch alternatives.
