If you can Reply the same question with that i did to wg_ski just do it....
xaxaaxaxaxa yeah i know so you think is better 800hz cross without midbass horn ?
Pics and specs or it didn't happen!
Is THIS what you had in mind koutrou? Not a newb project.... and could do better with modern drivers (the tech is 15 years old).

No i dont have this in mind too many speakers and this is for more than 500 people....
Pics and specs or it didn't happen!
Here is my speakers 162092679022494433912547458357n.jpg (960 x 540 pixels) - Image Host ,i have also other 2 subs... good qality and power...bur not extream loud for big partys....
Impressive rigs!
How well do the 2x12 tops keep up with the TH18's? Is there enough kick in the tops with a 100hz or so crossover?
Thanks,
Ernie
Yes those are realy good ,th118 not realy get low... but 4 teamwork are good and for lows.... if i cross midhigh at 800hz do you think that 2 midbass Beyma 15P80Fe and two 2" midhigh (with jbl 2386 A horn 116db long throw) is good or i will need 2 more midbass for support ??? for lows I will make 2 X1 cabinets with dimensions of 21" i think is enough good.... I like deep bass

Wow koutrou, that is exactly what I expected!
I'm just getting a 404.
Really wouldn't mind hearing a decent DIY rig and sitting it next to the old Nexo Alpha I usually work with. I'm building myself a rig, sloooowly. Currently at a pair of EV 15" Deltamax tops with Beyma 15P1200Nd midbasses and EV DH1a CDs. Subs next - my current ones don't keep up, so a pair of THAM15s are in order.

I know that you were expected something like this but those speakers I had made 3 years later and for my house was something more than extream and good for partys until 200 people to open space.....
They keep up well enough for a dance party. They usually don't want ear-splitting music, but they want the kind of bass they can get with a kilowatt in their Honda Accord. I typically run with quite a bit of boost between 40 and60. I had a 2x15+2x8+1" rig for the mains, but it was too much in the 100-150 Hz range and I always ended up scooping it a bit there. Those cabs were way bigger, and as it turned out, unnecessary. There was always a broad rise in the midbass measured indoors, even though they measure pan flat down to 50 outdoors. If I do run into a situation where the 2x12's don't cut it I can always get the bigger ones out.

If one 15 per side doesn't cut it get two. That would be close to the output of a horn midbass, but have no problems with 800 Hz crossover. And "long throw" may not be what you want for a dance party anyway. I've found that 90 degree coverage works best in most cases. 40 degree cabs make a "cone of destruction" that's too loud if you're right in its path. You want the music to be loud but not deafening, but the bass to feel like an earthquake.
No matter what subs you use you will need multiples. Even if you build Othorns you'll want more than one.
