Hi all, seeking a little advice. I'm wanting to make a simple setup using the GK driver and adding a secondary driver as a super low or just to compliment the CI of the GK.
I am considering the vented RAB but haven't heard many people using them yet, or using dtec and just piggy backing them to the CI crossover or finally just adding a second CI-30050 with no XO but using a yellow or orange damper.
What would be the best out of these or would there be a better setup?
Any advice would be much appreciated.

  I really want to try some Sonion but the 100 pcs MOQ is really a obstacle...

That sucks. I have 25pcs MOQ in Europe.

CI-30050 has too low impedance. Use 22955 or 22960.

so making it a dual CI would be the best approach?

why? unless you want to wire them in series,
 
30050 has 9,5 Ohm DC 46Ohm @1kHz wired in series will get closer to 22955 which has 20Ohm DC and 68 Ohm @1kHz. Yet still you may want to put resistor on CI-22955.
 
Wiring in series is very "power hungry" for DAPs.

Thats not allowed here.

 In general, group buys and group builds (of DIY products) are not allowed, except for hard-to-obtain DIY parts or special DIY one-offs (such as circuit boards). These still require permission from an admin before they can be approved, however. 

I would say 100pcs per order ARE "hard to obtain" parts. All you have to do is contact administrator and get approval and if don't get it, well... at least you tried.

It says DIY products are not allowed. Sonion drivers are not DIY products but branded and trademarked goods which should not get restricted.
