52) Sawafuji DP-12G Woofer/Midrange speaker drivers

These 52 drivers are part of the 144 drivers that are advertised in my other listings, so this listing will be removed, if the whole lot of 144 drivers sells before these 52 drivers sell.

52) Sawafuji DP-12-G Dynapleat woofer/midrange with metal grills.

There are 20 drivers in each case, and one small case of 12 drivers.

Also have a listing of these same drivers in my other listing in separate cases.

There are a total of 3 packages to ship from this listing, so if you are located overseas, there will be 3 packages total.

The size and weight is the combined size and weight of the 3 packages, which is over the weight limit for overseas shipping.

If you are located overseas, to make shipping possible for shipping all 52 drivers overseas, then go to my other listing for these listed in separate cases.

For buyers in the continental US, you can buy from this listing, and I take care of shipping you the 3 packages in the continental US only.

The last 2 photos of speakers that used these same drivers, are for reference only, and are not part of the sale in this listing

Brand: Sawafuji

Model: DP-12-G

Qty: 52 (2X 20 drivers per case, and 12 drivers in small case.

Type: Dynapleat woofer/midrange

Driver size: 6 inch on frame edge to edge

Cone resonance: 30Hz

Frequency response: 30Hz - 1KHz

Cone type: poly material

Condition: New old stock

Color: Black frame

Production year: 1980's to 1990's

Manufacturer power rating: not specified

Normal impedance: 4 ohms

DCR: 3.4

Each driver has a rating of 25 watts. But when they are wired in series, the power handling with increase.

The Melos speakers in the last photo, those drivers are wired 3 sets of 3 drivers, with each set of 3 drivers in series and then the 3 sets of 3 drivers wired in parallel.

So with 3 drivers in series, and 3 sets of them in parallel that makes the total power handling at 225 watts power input, and the impedance still remains at 4 ohms.

2 drivers in series, and and 2 sets in parallel that makes the power handling at 100 watts power input at 4 ohms.

And with all the combined sound pressure of all of the 9 drivers has a wide dispersion and can produce sound at listening levels with only 10-15 watts. The more drivers used together, the more sound spread, and larger sound.

These drivers came from a speaker company years ago, that closed their company, and I bought many Sawafuji drivers from the company.

For sale:

52) Sawafuji DP-12-G Dynapleat woofer/midrange drivers with metal grills.

Each case will be double boxed with thick foam all around well protected for safe shipping.

These Sawafuji drivers were made in Japan in the 1980's, up to the early 1990's, and Sawafuji had a speaker company in California called Dynawave, that made di-pole speaker systems using multiple of these drivers, together with the Dynaplete midranges and tweeters.

Also, the Melos Audio company built their own speakers in the 1980's, called the Pipedreams speaker line array, using a line array of 12 DP-12 with 16 Panasonic ribbon tweeters,

for example is the last two photos showing a smaller model speakers made with the Sawafuji drivers and Panasonic ribbon tweeters in a line array, I used to have in my audio system, and sounded incredible, and efficient enough to work great with push-pull or single ended 300B tube amplifiers, shown in the last 2 photos.

The sound quality is really really good!

Being that these are a flat driver, there's no sound coloration from a flat surface, because there's no cone.

The diaphragm is driven by 9 voice coils, to create a linear surface travel, with great dynamics and wide bandwidth.

These drivers are very fast, very dynamic, very clear, natural, and no cone colonization to the sound.

I am selling off my whole inventory on all my Sawafuji drivers, due to moving later this year.

The drivers are listed in groups, that are best match eachother.

I did sound test a few from each case with music at 5 watts, and sound clear and sounds like they are working good.

These are just a few of them of the many drivers available, so here's your chance to get them, because they are very hard to find anymore.

See my other listings for more Sawafuji drivers!

I highly recommend building a pair of line array speaker cabinets similar to the ones in the last photos,

you will be very impressed on how great they will sound with ribbon tweeters.
