Now this is the way speaker comparisons should be done!

What a fantastic video. The Mark Audio Pluvia is especially impressive! Playing a continuous song with alternating speakers was the easiest way for me to hear the difference because there are no breaks. The differences stand out immediately.

OMG your effort is commendable I'm sure this was a monster to set up and shoot. My preference is the same 10s clip repeated 8x. My rankings: Best: MarkAudio Pluvia, MarkAudio Gen 3, TB W4-2124. Worst: Visaton FR10 and MarkAudio ChN70. Rest of them are bunched up together in the middle. Thank you a ton for this one!

Brilliant test. Mark Audio Pluvia seven A sounded very realistic IMO, first prize. I would place Visaton s100 second. I believe continuous playing and vocals are the best methods. Thank you a lot.

Amazing video. Must have taken up a whole lot of time. Thank you for that. Much appreciated. The only full range driver I've ever heard was the Fane Sovereign 12" in a cheap diy basreflez box. Frankly based on the looks and amp I was expecting a horrible sound but no... It sounded very open and direct. And it could do party mode. That system did have dual subwoofers so that helped quite a bit I think.

Vocals, especially female vocals, really bring out the nuances in speaker drivers like this and in this size range! I think vocals are an essential thing to include to evalute speakers, as voices, especially female voices, seem to have such a wide range of natural harmonics and layering that just basic musical instruments do not, but ultimately you want to use a wide variety of different musical styles when evaluating speakers, in order to see what all they can (and really can't) do well or best. Honestly, when I compare speakers I use a variety of tracks that I know really well, all different types of music, and I switch between doing one round of comparisons playing a track all the way through from beginning to end, then another round of comparisons using just a short identical sample of a specific song that really has something special or uniquely noticeable about it, but you have to do BOTH methods of comparison, that way you can get the best overall view of how each driver sounds in comparison to another one. Then once you've narrowed it down to ideally only the two "best" ones, then you can do an instant "A/B" comparison back and forth, over and over, between just those two, using whatever method you prefer, (or again using BOTH methods mentioned above), to see which driver is BEST OVERALL... And oftentimes, there ISN'T really a single definitive "perfect" driver of ANY size OR type, because each individual one will always be stronger and/or relatively weaker in each specific area of comparison, so you just have to pick the best overall sounding one, and then you can make additional sound tweaks using a crossover of some sort IF needed or desired... And drivers of this size usually only like playing frequencies above about 200Hz or so, because too much lower bass tends to mask or even distort the midrange clarity and/or the treble detail. And ideally, drivers of this size are probably "best" suited for use exclusively as midranges or possibly upper midranges in a larger 3 or more way speaker system, at least that's been my own personal best experiences with drivers around this size. I've been playing around with and experimenting with countless speakers and speaker designs to some degree since I was a young kid, always interested in details of sound, (I probably should have become a professional sound engineer!), and I'm 50 now, so I've heard and experienced a thing or three (million!), LOL! I've also found that as a general trend, JVC actually makes quite a few different models of REALLY great sounding drivers in or around this size, which they feature in quite a few of their smaller bookshelf speakers, of which can oftentimes even be found in your local THRIFT stores for about $1/inch of driver diameter, so pretty much a STEAL, because of their overall sound quality! Most JVC drivers around this size also seem to be built quite well, with larger than average magnets, usually polypropylene cones, and almost always a nice quality rubber surround, plus most of them look very nice too! I have actually used quite a few JVC drivers from super inexpensive (used thrift store deals) speakers to become midranges for a few larger multi-way speaker designs over the decades, with really great, extremely impressive, even totally surprising, (in an awesome way), results! So JVC drivers scavenged from relatively inexpensive used thrift store speakers can definitely be a decent place to start if you're on an extremely limited budget like I am! (Even moreso in my younger years!) Anyway, this was a very good video, and even though I really couldn't hear much of any difference between any of the drivers in the video while listening just through my cellphone speaker, (not surprising), I should go back through this and rewatch it in closer detail while listening through a good set of headphones instead, in order to see which driver(s) I liked best here... Not that I could probably actually afford to use any of these drivers brand new, but it would be interesting to hear the differences between them nonetheless.

In my initial listen, I liked the 2142 and even the Visaton B100 more. However, after a thorough analysis and blind tests, letting myself focus on which sound conveys more and makes me feel, the 7.2 HD emerged as the winner.

Quickly going through these with flat studio headphones. Winner = Tang Band W4-2142 (nice flat response, good imaging), Silver = Markaudio CHR-70 (many resonant peaks and many dips, weak image, mediocre clarity), Bronze = Markaudio PLUVIA-7HD (unclear and resonant lowend, bruteforced highs, clarity issues, distortion). This is a nice comparison video, doing individual drivers like this, awesome, thank you ! I think crossing out low frequencies (below 150-300hz) of these types of drivers is the way to go to minimize the inherent distortion.

Personally prefer the Tang Band W4-2142. Was also surprised how well the super cheap Visaton FR10 sounded.

My Winner: Mark Audio Pluvia

Great test! I admire your work. Same sample on every driver is best way of comparing so many drivers at once, in my opinion. My preference, to my suprise, were Mark Audio 7 Pluvia and CHR70. Thank you, Grzegorz!

Mark audio pluvia with closed eyes simply the best

For me I liked Fostex P1000K first, then Visaton FR-10 second, Pluvia 7 HD third. The Fostex was the most musical. However they didn't blow my mind because they still lack the sparkle of a dedicated tweeter and the impact of a mid/subwoofer for bass. Please do a similar test for small 2.5" because those will have more high end, I think those will hit the sweet spot and have great imaging associated with one-way speakers, then we can add a subwoofer if required. Thanks

Try this trick on FR drivers. Partially slit the cone right through with a razer blade like 3 mm from the voice coil tube. Make the partial cuts all around...but with gaps in the cuts so the cone won't fall apart. LIke 8mm cuts and 4mm gaps (that are not cut). Repeat the process, further out lIke 1cm out from the center as well. This is where it gets a bit complicated. Some FR drivers have whizzer cones and dust caps and some with dust caps only and some with phase plugs. I would tend to get rid of both the whizzer and dust cap and build a phase plug. But there is an art to removing dust caps and whizzers (without ripping the schiit out of them). The most difficult part! A skilful use of a razer blade helps! But you don't have to do it, you can retain both the dust cap and/or the whizzer! And just do the inner cuts on the dust cap and make the 1cm out cuts on the main cone or whizzer (or preferably both, maybe). Experiment. Well, how does it sound? Even better than tweeters, the warmest sweetest treble you ever heard, and you will be stuck to your system, addicted. The best treble in the world! And remarkably, it doesn't seem to affect the structure or make the bass any worse. It's still acting like a stiff ridged cone (and hard to even see). You can try it on cheapies, as low as $2 a piece on the internet. Mine are $8 jobs. 😅😅😅😅

Very much appreciated your effort to make such a great video. Among the series I prefer Tang Band W4 for flat response songs. Mark Audio Pluvia and CHR 70 are too nice sounding with bit more expression and sound stage, CHR is bit less by the cost. Awsome experience :).

For me MarkAudio Plivia 7 was no.1. That ws grat comparison, good job!

1. Visaton B100 2. Fostex 3. Mark with White cone, dark ones too dark. Worst tang bangs 😂

Truth be told, in the end, it's not just about having an analytical concept. The best test I did was listening to the videos of each speaker and letting myself be carried away by what I felt, without looking at the screen. The Pluvia 7.2 HD really took me somewhere else; I let myself be immersed in the listening experience, and that's what matters. All of this through audio recorded by a microphone and played back on headphones. But in the end, it seems these comparative tests do serve a purpose because similar conclusions are drawn without having heard them in person. Comparisons do work; without them, it's of little use. I advise you that for future comparisons, include the original track sample directly, without it playing through the speakers. I know the room and microphone come into play, and none will sound like the original, but it's a good comparison to assess the source and the other speakers.

Do a test of 8inchers also. SEAS, Tangband, Mark, visaton and dayton (the one with 96dB claimed sens) and Sonido.

I reckon shallow cones are sweeter than steep cones. I bought some $60 each Visation 4" FR drivers and they were as sour as schiit and they had really steep cones. I also had some $12 shallow cone 4" FR drivers and they were really sweet and way more top end treble! I also had other steep cone 8" coaxials that were sour.

I liked them all, they all are good quality but the one I think it's a little better than the rest is the Markaudio Pluvia 7.2 HD because the sound is a little more detailed and profound or more spatial.

I liked the most Markaudio Pluvia Seven, really sounds like full range. Well done 👍🏻

Very interesting video, I have had many speaker design and ended up with 2 way standmount (Xavian XN250). I would like to try something with Mark Audio 4" but I don't know how about enclosure design. Your video has good sound, and would like to know the enclosure design you have used in this video. Regards!

1- Mark Audio P7HD 2- Tang Band W4 2142 3- Mark Audio CHR70 In that order, IMHO Please make bigger letters, I have to use a magnifier to know which model was playing.

I put a pair of Visiton 3" drivers in the dash of a Jeep Liberty and was absoloutely amazed how good they sounded (on head unit power). I've also used the Dayton RS75-4 (Reference series 3") in sealed enclosures on top of my car's dashboard. They didn't have the top-end sparkle I was after, so added some tweeters, passive HP filters and L-pads (3" FR and tweeters share a channel). It sounded good, but not great so removed all that in favor of the tweeters that match the midbass drivers in the doors (Dayton RS175-4P 7" Reference paper cone version; Dayton RST28-4 aluminum dome 1 1/8" tweeters). I much prefer the front stage this way for the clarity, soundstage and simplicity of it. *powered from a SKAR Audio RP75.4 amplifier

After listening through it several times blind my top 3 were 1.)Mark Audio Pluvia 7 HD 2.)Mark Audio CHR70 3.)Tang Bang W4 2142 The MA sounded a lot more alive with a lot more overall warmth and depth to it, and all of that for a „low price@ of 55€ is a real deal. The TB was close but pretty picky in the style of music played, it didn’t always sounded amazing to Lenin all samples. Interestingly the MA CHN didn’t sound nearly as good as the other 2. The TB 1320SI felt like, the sound went from a rich full sound to flat. To my ears pretty horrible compared to the 2142. But it had its own way of getting recognized, be it good or bad. Thanks for the lot of work put into it, a live switch to the different speaker is always appreciated and helps way more as a direct comparison. The rest of the pack I didn’t mention weren’t worth talking about, sometimes harsh and not as full as my top 3 :)

Thanks for this great video. I guess this was a lot of work but the results are highly appreciated 👏. My personal ranking was the same listening to the continuous music and to the short samples, so therefore I would think having both is perfect 😇. My ranking is: 1. Visaton B100 2. TangBand W4 2142 and Mark Audio CHR70(A) Gen3

I like Tang band w4-2142 for in near sounding openness in top and mid. Same goes for the two Mark audio's CHR-70(A)gen3, and CHN-70. I like the impression of openness and a fealing of presence. But after seweral listenings the pluvia are good at woises. They change depending on music material, some women woises, som mens woises.

Excellent comparison. Could you please provide the cabinet & port details (volume: liters, port dimensions)? Thanks!

Bravo, très beau travail ! Très bonnes conditions de comparaison ! Merci

Great Job but if we are talking about performance, this test didn't do the ultimate justice, because each Driver has it's own T/S parameter which lead to the specific enclosure for it. Anyway, Mark Audio has been a well known for high C/P DIY unit, I put Mark Audio first, TB the second, Top three choice is MA Pluvia 7.2HD, TB W4 2142, MA CHR70

What about Visaton FRS8 M? I know it's less than 4 inches; I have it, and it sounds excellent. Honestly, at a certain SPL, it starts to distort a bit, but the FR10 reminded me in terms of sonic signature. The highs are natural and not exaggerated with excellent transients. From what I can see, the Visaton B100 is on another level-no distortion and very natural. The Pluvia 7.2 HD has an overall excellent response from what I heard in the video. I think they're the best for classical music, although they have a somewhat peculiar EQ. It's hard to define; the highs are very detailed, but there are peaks across the spectrum that are present but don't quite resonate.

Mark Audio Pluvia with the TB 2142 as a close second. Great video!

My favourites are the Mark Audio CHR70 Gen3, Pluvia and the Visaton B100. Tang Band also has some nice drivers like the W4 2142.

You guys make great videos, thanks for this, very much appreciated

Wow, what a lot of work in this, thank you. Im glad you switched to using the same clip of music on each. Hard to give s favourite, i couldnt read the tiny black box well on my phone. I liked the Tang band speakers and one of the Mark Audio speakers.

Hi Greg, of course even with the good recording equipment the compression by YT makes it difficult to hear much difference. I just ordered some Visaton FR10's for $12 each Australian dollars. I love the FR8's and the FR 10's go 30 hz lower 😀Thank you!

Really cool comparison. Great job on the execution. I have the Pluvia HD and like them. Considering messing around with Visaton.

Excellent video! I prefer the B 100 from what I can hear here, but I am also a little biased. Still, they sound the most detailed and balanced. However, I don't have $190 to spend on a pair! The FR 10 is completely mind blowing considering they're $9 each! How would you rate the FR 10 vs the B 100 in person?

In my opinion the second way of presenting the recordings (same 10 seconds of music, through the different speakers) is more useful for making comparisons.

My favourite is Mark audio C H R 70 gen3 Best balance out of all of them good bass clarity was good. Have you got a favourite? You can't really tell if you're not there!

Thanks for the enormous effort you put into this video.I just cannot pick a winner, maybe the Visation B100 is the best value for money.

Speakers have an image size. Different speakers have different image sizes. The majority of stereo signals are found on both channels, i.e. "mono". If speakers are placed too far apart, the sound image is torn apart. I recommend placing your speakers about 50 cm (center-center) apart and listening for a while. Then at some point place the speakers 60 cm apart. Then at some point 70 cm. And so on, until the sound image torn apart... Don't forget to move speakers back until they play together again now;-) With compact speakers, this distance is far less than one meter, with really large floorstanding speakers very rarely more than 1.5 meters. Angulation: often so that the outer side walls of the boxes are visible. Distance to the rear wall: when bass and fundamental engage.

Amazing work thank you ♥️ Il love the natural medium sound of the VISATON B100. The Mark Audio CHR70 & Pluvia are an EXCELLENT full range speakers too….👌🏻

The winners are: Tang Band W4 2142 for studio applications and Mark Audio Pluvia for HiFi purpose. Walter Lori mix & mastering audio engineer.

All the drivers tested in the same box? Surely the differing vas and other Thiele/Small perimeters would require different cabinet volumes, ported or sealed, no? 🤔

1. Mark Audio Pluvia Seven (A) HD 2. Visaton B100 3. Tang Band W4-2142

Very nicely done video. It depended on the track but overall, I liked the Mark Audio Seven and a close second would be the Tang Band 1242. There were a couple of stinkers in the line up and some good runner ups.

Great stuff! Thank you for your work. I guess the same track compare showed more useful for me.

Fantastic, superb test. Thanks. The differences are big. I prefer the continuous test track, but the song must have a steady rhythm and play a little longer. My favourite is Mark Audio Pluvia. I was surprised that the Aiyima driver was not included in the test!!!! Please make more tests like this.

After 2 hours of listening, on different devices(sound reproduction differs on each device, slightly) using headphones and an audio system, I came down to tang band w4 2142 as being the best for my acoustical taste. I am/was looking for some midrange/full range drivers to integrate them in my car and my multimedia tv stand I am building. And the w4 seems to tick all the boxes in the midrange area. I would have loved and highly appreciated to hear Sohn - Veto. You can include that song in your tests, just an idea. But, your work and is very much appreciated! Thank you for this!

#1:Mark audio chr 70 #2: visaton b100 + fostex p10o0k

Decware DNA speaker uses a Markaudio full range driver. You don't know, but you can find out. Cool runnings

I would have loved to see the FatialPro 4FE32 and/or 4FE42 in the mix. Amazing budget full range.

#1: Mark audio chr 70 #2: visaton b100 +fostex p1000k

chn70, fr10 - awful p1000k, 1320sif - better chr70, pluvia - good w4-2142, b100 - best after longer hearing the b100 has some kind of special sound that I like very much.

Song sample 5 was definitely my favorite! Who is that and what is the name of the track? I'm gonna have to look that one up myself and give it a listen in its entirety!

My favorites are: Mark Audio CHR70 Gen.3 and Mark Audio Pluvia. Regards

First Place Pluvia 7 HD, Second place is for CHR70 GEN3, third plase is for Visaton B100,

The Mark Audio CNN 70 sounds best. Best upper highs. Listen on the same track tests on "Tell me you are scared" track at 15:25 and on the very last guitar chord strum listen and it reveals an exciting sparkle, that is most prominent on the Mark Audio 70 driver test. 😅

in my monitor AKG Headphones sounds like B100 detailed/oper winner, Pluvia more relaxed winner, other have some tone or clarity imperfections

wow, thank you for that amazing work! Very good comparison. Markaudio makes the worst and the best in this test. I think, plying the same sample for 10…sec is way better!

Visaton B100 sounds the most open, the rest have something nasal... Topping DX7PRO, DAN CLARK AUDIO AEON. You could include in the test Tang band 1808, Fostex 208 Sigma and the highly praised Cube Audio F8 Neo with Voxativ AC-1.6 ? And if you can put the microphones 3 meters away from the speakers?

Here it is Feb 2024. It looks like the clear winner is Tang Band W4-2142. They are all sold out! Or maybe that means they were last. Anyway, I picked up the Visaton B100's for $80 per. I'm gonna slip that into my exciter-driven flat panel wall to fill in the gap. Should be fun.

Wow both Mark Audio are great!!

Cool videos, nice service to the community. Both the diy community and for interested customers to have an insight in the evaluation process if any of this makes it into a commercial product. Don't know which recording style I prefer more, probably both useful. A criticism is that maybe evaluating the drivers in free air on a standard width baffle would have been better? don't we hear too much the effect of baffle loss with this small cabinet - assuming the drivers are running straight from the amp? Great work, thanks.

Thank you so much for your effort in doing this test! I wonder if Cube Audio have plans to make a 4 driver anytime? I have a Frugel-Horn cabinet and would love the option to test it with a Cube Audio driver! I see that Lii- Audio has a 4 driver, but don't know how that one sounds like. Thanks!

Did you use any filters/ crossovers?

1: Visaton B100 . 2: Mark audio Pluvia seven.

Mark Audio CHR 70 gen3 and Tang Nand w4 2142❤

MA is a big pfff. Tang Band W5-1880, W8-2143, and Wavecor FR085CU02 are the best (unfortunately the last one needs a woofer). May be at a higher price range there is something better, but 100-200 (250..) is already occupied

Awesome, thanks!

Tang Band W4 2142 - Visaton B100 - Mark Audio CHR70 (Headphones Audio Technica ATH-M70x)

For the time being ...I like Visaton, anf Tang band wa-2142....

Excellent video!! TY

Casi desacuerdo el plunvia tiene más cuerpo, gracias por la comparativa la próxima con unos más grandes 😂

Nice work

Amazing work thank you ♥️

Excellent job!

Thank you for fantastic sound comparison! Through my earphone all speakers sounds very equal. The cheap visaton is astonishingly good. Have you a link to the case construction? Do you use any Crossover parts?

the 2nd was quite good.

I have Sb34nrx75-6 woofers in sealed 70 liters box. I am looking a good fullrange for FAST project with them. Which 3-4 inch fullrange is best? The fullranges will only do above 200hz and will be in closed box

They are all good sounding speakers but the only difference is, they have different attitude delivering the sound.. i don't know if its just the enclosure but i'm sure that if this speakers have a well tuned enclosure it will sound different and more better.. anyway just saying.. thank you god bless

Have you sound tested any of the Audio Nirvana full range drivers? I own a pair of 8” and 12”. Oh, and I have a pair of 4” fostex that I use for surround in my HT. The audio nirvanas sound amazing and are crazy sensitive. The fostex are pretty good, but I would never use them for anything but surround channels.

lavoro incredibile. Grazie

Vinners Pluvia 7.2 HD, Visaton fr10, Tang band w4 2142

Visaton B 100 Mark Audio Pluvia seven

Excellent video 👍🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Fantastic

Ahoj. Zaujímavé by bolo ku Visaton fr10 pridať 0.75" kalotu, alebo RBT tweeter >10kHz. Tiež ak k markaudio chN 70

I don't understand why people do these speaker comparisons for people online . we are herring the sounds through our speakers or head phones so it will all sound like the medium in which we are listening to. its not accurate . show us frequency response graphs so we get a true analysis of the speakers capabilities. Every speaker sounds the same . if you close your eyes you can not tell when he is using a different speaker. he should knows this if he is a driver designer.

Hey Greg, you were the only one how listened live. Which have the best sound stage 3D performance?

Drums on fostex p1000k sounds like drums, on the rest of speakers sounds like speakers, i cant explain it better, also the enclosures are not made specificaly for each drivers wich is a big flaw, mark aduio pluvia 7, has the most impresive sound but also sounds like is a bit loose, rings to much. I can't pick an winer, the tang band w4 white cone is nice too
