Perfect opportunity for OP to hear some hogs being thrashed at the next UOD when Imperial Sound Army turn up with 6 loaded with tmax drivers....crazy SPL last time i heard them but couldnt be sure they were dropping low.

Bit of a necro: but I heard them (Imperial) at Scala. Nice, quick tight, _windy!_ Gorgeous sound. 
But those turbo's are strangled in hogs. I've heard WSP and Iration get a lot more out of them. And I don't know what Shanti has at the other end of that powersoft, but good grief, it was enough to confuse the image stabilisation on my phone. Those Straven boxes must be a state secret.

What's the goal here?

If you have access to steamers and CNC then you could just unfold the horn of any design that does what you need it to, refold in a way that looks very cool but wouldn't be practical for tour boxes and bingo (after much work, cups of tea and swearing) you'll have something ridiculous and unique looking.

If it was me then I'd use that kit for making fancy mid-high and just go tried and tested for the bass but maybe with accents that make them fit with whatever beauty you've built to sit on top. People can see the mid top from further away so making it look nice has a greater effect.

I saw this because wood bending is far more used for the mid-highs. There are a few examples of bent wood in bass speakers (the final reflector in many scoops, HD15, ASS BS500/600/1200, old turbo). I did bent ply for my first build (Eminence 12" flare). Tricky but satisfying. Would have been easier using a wood steamer rather than just putting the parts in the bath and forming them with piles of bricks lol.
Don't test the champignon sound

If I had the resources the OP had, I'd be looking to build 21" version of HOG or Martin WSX.

Or maybe 2x18" Version of the WSX..
