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

For sale:

7 and 1/2 cases of Sawafuji DP-12 Dynapleat woofer/midrange drivers.

20) DP12 per case X7, plus 14 in a partial case.

I would sell one or more cases by request, and be able to ship them in the continental US. Shipping is extra.

Each case of 20 drivers is $1200, plus 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, because the diaphragm not a cone.

The flat design also makes these possible to mount them flat to the wall, without an enclosure, to use as midranges.

If bass and midrange is needed, then they require an enclosure, or in large quantities will work well as a dipole on a flat baffle.

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

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.
