Put simply, no.

a = F/m

If you read up on the meaning of TSP, you will find that "qes" is somewhat (not in a strictly mathematical way) anti proportional to that accelaration.

In reflex world the 15's will do techno (like the post wants) better IMHO

Horns, well the 186/1850 thing of course is what they do well, no need for 15's.

As mentioned above though, noise to neighbors really should be a consideration in today's world and that means getting technical.

Toasty:  In a DIY way which direction would you take?
It's everything, not everythink!

Sorry for late reply for some reason the site appeared offline for a couple days
About 1500 people, yeah USD, might be for kerfuffle Wink.
 I like that retard big bass horn, got any plans on it? What's the thinking on 1850's versus cubos?
At the moment I'm thinking maybe 4 double 18's 8 15's and I'll buy some mid/highs

Job done.

No plans for a horn like this, but in principle it's not a very difficult design to develop from scratch.



Phase 1: Post on Speakerplans
Phase 2: ?????
Phase 3: Profit!

Bigger than a shipping container loaded with 44 drivers and it's own generator

If you don't need to move it, a bunch of those with 15" kick sections and bought pro tops would be the ideal. You can bury the big horns in the ground too. I wouldn't bother with 1850 horns, the suitable drivers will cost too much to get. You'd be better off basing stuff around say P Audio as you can more easily get it into the country by popping some islands over personally.
