this is more for Mikey , building a cab with you 8" horn and the 12" horn would it be a waste of money ,or should one go for it ?
cause nuff designs that have or are still good are based on 8", 10", 12"
meyer MSL3
OHM HD-MH
Stasys 3 mk2

and many more !

Sometimes, simple is best.

Expensive 12", on phase "bunged", long wide flare, with expensive Neo 2", will remove need for 8"/1" drivers.

Know someone in UK with just this setup, and shames many more complex systems.

BSS LMS & Quality amps, of course. Wink

so you mean using like the meyer horn and redoing the bong to match the 12" being used would just do the job with a go 2"neo,

Actually, mean something like the Porn Horns.

Learnt from hearing different systems, when you spend over certain budget on 2" drivers, they both go low and high. Shocked Big smile

Msl3 uses a 4''inch jbl comp which goes down to 1050hz if used with its original crossovers.So the two 12'' with the huge plug can meet each other quite easy.
Although nowadays it is quite common to use 8'' drivers to cover the gap between 12'' or 15'' and 1''-1.4'' comps, I doubt if meyer can achieve that kind of spl with low wattage drivers and old amps by choosing inserting a small cone driver between mid and hi.Maybe two 8'' drivers in horn with another phase plug could do the job but as mentioned above simple sometimes is much better.
I find the coax comps solution to be the best way.

Sometimes ι wonder if it is worth all the extra money to reach the same outcome if were using
simple ways from the start to achieve things that already work fine all these years.

Of course it is so much easier when you have the money to try new stuff.

Mykey, whats approx freq range of your 12" horns, & with which suggested drivers ?

E.g., can they work with PD123, PD121, Eminence Kappa Pro, Fane 12MB?
