It's just bits of paper flapping about in a box.

Probs not the ideal drivers for what you want unless they will work in something like a martin wsx, punisher horns maybe worth a look but use a 12”.
What is  'Trebuchet'?

This is a genre of music originating from India but came to the Caribbean in Trinidad and then was adapted with modern beats. Its similar to Soca music, but contains Indian oriental instruments also. The tempo is > 120BPM.

no single 18 cab of similar size to yours will have any significant "throw" in the bass bandwidth..
for your existing 18nw100s theres at least 2 suitable b&c designs..
(https://www.lautsprecherteile.de/B-C-18-NW-100)

block of 4 of those horns for example will "throw" further and sound punchier than 4 of the reflex cabs simply due to size and better coupling to the air, the 4 reflex will have more output below 40hz but afaik neither soca nor chutny nor most dancehall really require sub freq. as they are rather based on 45-60ish hz basslines mainly?!

if your gigs (and tops/stacking options etc.) allow for blocks of min. 4 of such horns i would switch to horns and sell all other gear you have except maybe the DAS subs, which could be used in very small venues/setups.. or build 2 reflex subs/tapped horns(keystone) for the 18sw115s instead :)

I live in Trinidad in the Caribbean. We have an immense mix of culture and music here and also very different venue locations. I do both outdoor and indoor events, and play Soca, Chutny, dancehall, hiphop, techno, and East Indian film music primarily.
 
I have the following, but not overly happy with them:
1) A pair of JBL PRX718 subs - I find they play too low with not enough kick. I tried to EQ it but not happy with the sound still. They work ok indoors, does not throw far outdoors.
2) A pair of DAS Action118 - this sub is similar to the Yorkville LS801P. They are louder than the JBL, but huge and heavy! I find they play kinda low too, but I honestly feel there is a sub out there that's smaller than this, that is louder. They throw OK for a single sub though, especially when I have the pair together.
3) A pair of CUBO 15 Extended (loaded with Selenium SW800) that I built myself - they work well, but I find they don't throw far outdoors. They are also hit and miss when it comes to the venue (they don't sound good sometimes depending where I go).
 
I got 8 B&C 18NW100 on a great deal some time ago, so I wanted to see what is the best option I have with these (looking to build long throw boxes for them)
And then I have a BRAND new pair of B&C 18 SW115 subs that I want to place in a nice pair of all round boxes.
