yeah should'nt be too hard you can get the dimensions and angles on the wedge fornm the turbo site but I'm not sure what drivers they use, I know turbo often spec off the shelf drivers such as PD, beyma etc but then they also have thier OEM ones as well....so if anyone can shed any light on it or even recomend some drivers for the box dimensions that would be great

I'd make a guess that it's a PDN 12MH25 given that they use the 15" PD neo drivers in their larger wedges. Unfortunately they are not easily available at the moment.  I'd suggest buying the B&C 12NDL76's that Smokey Joe is selling, they're an excellent driver for small wedges.

As for the top end, something like a B&C DE160/250 etc would be great.

I recommend B&C because they're the drivers I know best.  There are alternatives if you prefer other manufacturers.  P-Audio SN12MB + SN-D44/BM-D450 for example for a budget version.

Turbosound list all their components in a "component map" file which is somewhere on the website.
 
It uses an LS1219 woofer and a CD111 compression driver with a PX121/X crossover.
 
You can normally buy all Turbo parts seperately - they know how to charge though...

I take it those are the turbo model numbers...will these drivers be bespoke turbo only drivers or are they literally rebadged PD etc and I can find out what the off the shelf models are...don't really want to pay bucks for the turbo badged stuff i can get it cheaper...might as well buy the cabs otherwise cos I'm still paying for the badge on the front if i buy drivers from them.
