I ain't heard that combo, or of anyone trying it out! have you tried contacting RMJ to ask if either of the two drivers are suited for horns ?

If you buy them I would take the plan details with you and ask for a garuntee it will be fine in the enclosure!

If you were to get the parameters and post them a lot of people would be very grateful!!
 
You could also compare them to the parameters of the 1850, around which the horn was designed. I think you'll find some stark differences though...

Get someone to post hornresp parameters for 1850/186 and plug in parms for Turbomax.

But 1850 horns don't drop very low in singles or pairs, so unless you got loadsa dosh
to spend on 4-6 Turbomax a time, I would think about "another" type of cabWink.
