Only because that is what's in the 2 I bought 2nd hand. They sound decent tbh...just figured it's cheaper/easier to buy 2 rather than 4

They are designed to be used in a reflex box though. Not a scooo. So unfortunatly wouldnt be ideal getting nice new scooos specially made for a reflex driver. Sorry to burst the bubble. You could always sell them and buy used drivers which are suitable and excel in scoops

I've come to realise this now, shame but never mind, no drama! I'll just buy 4 new drivers
Love the sound of scoops so still on the lookout

Ye its a shame but you'll benifit in the end. Figure out what driver you want and then we can guide on what scoop. Happy hunting!

PD1852, 18sound 18NLW9601, and Oberton 18XB1600/18XB1300, mental in my LEV .44 Scoops..

There are probably many others, that excel, that I've not tried, like the RCF 18", people are raving about.

Just wondering if anyone is using Faital Pro 18HP1040 in their scoops; or am I going to be in the same position as Old King Coles?
No, I really don't know what I'm doing...

Faital Pro 18HP1040 is an average reflex driver. You will not want to give it full power in a scoop...

I have prototype Scoop, tuned for PD1851 and similar, but not had a chance to test it with that driver yet, as can't find 1x used.

The Lev .50 drawing is also finished. Cool
