As per the other thread, build suitable reflex cabs if you want low bass without a significant amount of R&D.

Particularly if your drivers were designed by the manufacturer to be used in this manner….

Why dont you start by explaining why you want a horn loaded subbass solution? What are you trying to achieve?

I can understand you just fine.

The right solution, whether you like it or not is a reflex sub. They may not look as interesting as a folded horn, but they will provide you with deep, loud, low distortion bass and sub where you want it, right by the speakers, not in your next door neighbours garden or yard!

It also helps a great deal that the majority of drivers manufactured today are designed for use in compact reflex tuned enclosures. 

The twin 15” push pull reflex sub design on the 18 sound website will do everything you need and more.

Chis is correct in saying a reflex is your best option, however if you go for the horn then with good driver the WSX is head and shoulders above an 1850.
