Neu 1515/2.5D or 1512/1.5Y, 2.5D... which motor?

Bruce, you have your setup. I wouldn't even be looking to something else. The Neu that I bought was a real impulse buy. I found it on sale and before I knew it, I had spent the money.

If I was smart, I would have just sold the Compro and Quark and taken the money and put it down on a Lehner 1940/9 hi amp. I would have had to run my Feigaos for a while longer, but then again, guess what I'm running now after having bought all of the high priced stuff.

zpb, I wish I could run that 7XL. I just can't do it. It has to be the weather down here. No matter what gearing I run, the motor gets to 200*F.

After taking some advise, I went and regeared my 9XL to a point where my Quark started cogging (18/46) and the motor temps are still up there. BTW, it was over 100*F down here today. It's funny because it rained a bit. You'd think that the rain would cool things off, but it doesn't. It just makes steam.

Yeah, 70c is almost 160F, it was smoking hot to the hand though, I can't even imagine what 200F would be like...hot. :eek:

That is strange how you are having trouble with the Quark being 'abrupt', that is just excuse my language, @$$ backwards as far as my experience and many others here. weird, you are, hmmm, yes (my friend Yoda says)

It just occurred to me, I have to take into account the gearing range I will want to use, with the fins sticking there and everything....
