You should better choose a 60° x 60° HF horn to match the dmb 12n´s dispersion.

I would not choose a 12" if i would only want it to play down to 250Hz (and they wont play lower in that horn!), but of course thats up to you.

so you have 18" Bandpass subs ?!. Your tops should be able to go down to 120Hz then. you need a 70cm horn for that...

Yes I have18" Bandpass subs. Is it 70 cm horn for the compression driver or for the low mid driver. I'm a bit confused now. If it's for the compression driver which will you recommend?
