basicly, i have an infinte 8 and 7 dedicated to bass.
i was going to build 186's but ive had a change of mind and realised 1850 are probebly the way.
but i load them with void 1200's will the infinite 8 hanlde 3x v-1200's per side. i think it runs 3300w @ 2.6ohm pc which doesnt seem anywhere near enough??
should i stick with the 1850?

power wise you should be fine, (the infinite 8 is a beast), but the v18 1200 isnt recommended for front loaded horn applications. I think the V18-1000 would give you better results in the 1850 horn as they are more similar drivers.

I'd wait for someone else to comment, but if you have a search you'll find somewhere that rog himself (the designer of the v18-1200 and 1000) doesnt think the 1200 cone is strong enough for front horn use.

If you really wanna go for Void then stick with the V1000

Read this thread, especially what Rog says on the secon page, that should help you decide.

cheers jake. i think ill go for the v1000. i was worried bout the 1850 grunt so a smoother and more eficient driver seems about right to me!!
this gets better and better. theyre cheaper too.
