hi all im going to be building 4 mt121's to sit on top of my 6 USB's.
and am wondering i need these midtops to be really good does the straight mt121 design preform worse than the angled original design ? and is the p-audio sn-12b and p-audio sd-750n the best option for them,
if i have to build 6 instead of 4 i will but would prefer to not have too.
any and all advice is very welcome.
thx in advance

I'm English, and as such I crave disappointment. I actively seek it out.

Just wondering the reason for choosing 4 * MT121s instead of 2 * MT122s?

you wont get adequate dispersion higher up with one MT122 per side
There are better drivers than the P-audio for sure but it you get diminishing returns on additional spend beyond a certain point. The P-audio drivers are great value for money, particulalry the SN-12B. You may be better off with a decent B&C or Beyma compression driver though as P-audio comps have been reported to sound a little ragged when thrashed; the beyma CP750Nd is not much more than the p-audio driver you mentioned and has had great feedback.
In my opnion the SN-12B is one of the best drivers P-audio do but there are plenty of alternative drivers that are suitable for high-power mid-range horns. The DAS 12BN certainly looks to have ideal specs but is a fairly pricey alternative.

I'd go for PD123ER's if you can find some, not sure about neo drivers. Maybe just me but I've got some 12/1" Reflex tops loaded with B&C 12NDL76's and they sound rather cold. Probably just need some EQ but I love a warm sound.
