I'm building a pair of speakers...woofers
I've compiled a list of some 6.5" and " woofers that I think I'd like to use in my "monitors" that I'm going to build, I don't really have a preference, being shielded already doesn't really matter, but is a nice touch, non's are usually 10 bucks less...I'd like them to be less than 140 dollars per woofer, but I could go with a dual-woofer arrangement if it's much better.

The dynavox look like a clone of the famous Dynaudio Esotec they used in their very best monitors, don't know about their performance but I was always curious on if they are in fact as good sounding as the dynaudio ones, I will give them a try, the VIfa all are very good ones....

Neutrality, accuracy? OK, just ask yourself first: Do you certainly know how the recording is supposed to sound? Sorry, but for me euphony is all about!!! Please do yourself a favor, stop listening your gear, and enjoy the music instead!!!

The wood Vifa one weighs a lot more than the Glass Fiber version of it, do you think the sound would be less defined because of this??...well, the wood one definetely looks spectacular, but I think I might go for the Carbon Fibre Audax ones since they have a very high frequency range.

I say go with the AUDAX HM170C0 6-1/2 , I was looking into building speakers earlier this year and read many good things about this woofer.

I was actually leaning toward that one, since it has a much higher frequency response than the others, making it easier to integrate into a 2-Way design.

The Audax sounds very sweet 
It's absolutely spectacular with the right recordings and amplification.

Take a look at the Vifa PL18WG or a Scan-Speak 6,5" here

My vote goes to the audax,
http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd..._ID=7793&DID=7
simply due to the fact that all of the carbon-composite speakers I've heard sound pretty good.
