has ne one got plans for a twin 1850 horn as a friends has 16 void drivers and we fort it would make more sense to just build 8 twin folded horns.

twin 1850's would be huge mate there must be a more compact 2 x 18" hron to build or just 16 x 1850's hope you have some good tops as i used to have 4 and they were brutal! also on another note nice dj name man we seem to share it haha :)

You can't be serious, right?!
How the hell do you intend to move them? Get them into venues (DOORS!!), transport them, LIFT THEM? This must be a windup... Moving a regular 1850 is enough of an effort but a double?! No chance. What possible benefit could there be from doing that apart from the single piece of ply that you would save (weight of like 3 kg)??

A single 1850 weighs at least 150 lbs. if neo loaded. A twin would weigh at least about 290 lbs. The depth on a single box is too wide to go through a single door. Maybe for an install, but a twin would not be a mobile setup.
-edit, oops sorry about the non-metric weight. In metric, an 1850 weighs... ummm.... a lot.

Its not the right driver for the box. If you just got 1850 horns or WSXs, or any other FLH you could run them up to 130/140 fine and just use them as a one way bass cab, especially with 8 a side.

Their is a Russian guy who has made double 1850's they are called meat grinders v1 and v2 and their is no way you will ever get the plans off him and I know it's been patented so be careful chucking some together then posting it over the net

Meat-grinder has nothing to do with the 1850 horn, but then again you could build the double 1850 horn and V-plate them while building , all you need is big garage-door for storage and outdoor gigs .  I used to have an open mind, but my brains kept falling out.
