compression driver horm

[Pbassred]

I thought this would be easy.
I've been looking for low cost Compression drivers for a small PA rig. Some Precision devices 2". drivers came up and I might go for it.
Trouble is - hard as I try, I can't find a horn to take a 2" mount that isnt the size of a cow! I thought it would be simple. I have 180x280 mm (7"x11")
Ideas?

While I'm here. Just to check accepted wisdom.......
2" is "better" than 1", is better than piezo .......right?

Where are you crossing over?? Most large format drivers can cross over a good bit lower than a 1' driver. The horns usually are larger to load the driver to a lower point. That's why they tend to be good sized. If you are crossing over at say 1k why not look into 1" driver and horn combo. You may loose some power handling but you should be able to find a horn that can fit.

Selenium has one that is only about 6.14" X 6.14" (156mm). Its the HL14-50. It has a limited dispersion of 45 degrees, but if thats OK, it may be a good choice for you. You can get info on it here.

I dont know who the dealer is in your area, but I'm sure a city the size of London has one somewhere. If you cant find one, the UK distributor is here:

At this point the price jumps to £103 .... beyond "cheap"
But the Xover point thing was worth knowing. Cheers!
