1 x mt121 per 2x1850 is good, the mt121 cab can comfortably meet the 1850's top end.

yes nice set up, but a four way with a proper kick section may be better for cerain types of music.
depends on what you do I suppose!

the 1850 is a one-way bass cab.... plays too low to make a sub-bin worthwhile... too high to make a kick-bin worthwhile...
 
I think they sound great for techno and the likes.  I'd run two high quality mid tops over 4 1850's.  Porn horns yes but you say that would be pricey.  MT122's would seem like a good choice.... not sure what frequency they play down to but I've heard them in combination with 1850 horns and it sounded very nice indeed.
 
I seriously doubt you will be disappointed with that combination.

I would go for four 186 with two mt 122 per side.
Bass matters...

It depends what drivers you put in the MT122's.  I have 1 pair that are plenty enough for 4x1850's and I also run 2 USB's on top of the 1850's for added punch. used for DnB and bassline it sounds amazing. infact I turn the mt122 amps down a bit as they are too much sometimes.

At what freq do you cut your 1850's and USB's. You are right ive got a pair of enclosure pretty similar to MT 122 with dual P Audio 500 watts mid and a 2" throat P audio hi and the ratio is 1 is two four 186.
