Hi everyone, i'm building my first horn speaker(1850).
I live in italy and it's difficoult for me to find the speakers suggested in the plan.
I've already searched in the forum for similar topics but didn't find something useful..
What speaker can i use?
My budget is limited to 250-300 euros  :D

Thanks a lot!! ;)

ciare 18-5 s
fane 18-1500
18 sound 18nlw9600
pd 1850
void v18 1000
p-audio sd 18
rcf lf18n451
b&c 18sw115
faital lx 1500
beyma 18sw1600nd
bms 18n850 v1

there are more, but it depends what characteristics you want, i recommend simulating thee response in horn response and choose what suits your needs best.

if it can be useful, i play techno and similar genres..

I like the bass to be warm but also defined...i think that we must find a compromise with that...right?

well the 1850 can be a hard sounding cab with the higher ebp drivers so maybe a lower ebp/bl motor will be good for you, as long as the xmax allows you enough spl before damage, this is less important with more cabinets though.

but all the mentioned drivers will work, you need to look at their specifications like efficiancy and rms power to make a decision, there was a b and c driver that could be good for you.
