Well I have to apologies to you all.
I HAVE the cubo 18 ext with pd 1850´s in them. But i did not think they went down deep enough. Lots of spl but not very deep. And I know that "tuning"/modifying a horn is making a completely new box, but what i meant was if I could get the same kind of sol and throw from the pd´s just lower. But what i have found this afternoon is that error was in amp rack. I drove the 2 cubo´s with a brigded crown ma 2400 which should enough power for them, and I have asked on other (danish) forums who said power would not change the sound only volume. BUT today i installed my newly bought crown ma5000vz instead, I only drove the 2 cubos in stereo mode 3/4 on the throttle knobs and I did not even get to 0 db on the mixer because the sound was REALLY loud. This test was only done i my garage so it is not that reliable, BUT I have however done that test to all my speakers system, just for test and so, but this was clearly the loudest setup I have ever had. Not as deep as my old 4order bandpass double 18´s but the spl on the whole scale more then makes good for that. So I guess the saw is gonna make another couple of cubo´s soon and then I have 2 more blown pd 1850 which need new cardboard and then I am ready to make some noise. Should i go stereo or parallel mono then on the crown? But I am sorry for my earlier posts, I did not think the bigger amp would that much difference.

a stack of 6 1850 horns is WAY overkill for my events

if you only want singles a side, and you're not happy with cubo extendeds with pd1850s, then you want reflex boxes with modern drivers in them probably. pd1850 is not what you need it seems.

might not be the extra power you might ave made a cabling error [usualy you would wire the cable differently when running in sterio channels and in bridge] or the smaller amp may have a fault you sure one cab wasnt out of phase with the other when you bridged? its a common mistake :P glad your getting it sorted tho :-]

yes i am shire there was no phase error, testet or several times. Well the idéer was only having one cab a side. but the cubos are not bigger than most reflex boxes so i will go with 2 cubos a side soon.
Any comments on parallel mono go stereo mode? Seems parallel mono should give a lot more power? How much watt is the limit in pd 1850 cubo extended? Are there any diffent ways of stacking 2 a side that works better?

If the 1850's are 8 ohm then prob parallel mono is best, don't forget to use a LPF
http://www.crownaudio.com/media/pdf/legacy/103169.pdf 1850's can soak up at least 1.5k I'm thinking of building the jth-18 at some point, have not had a chance to hear a cubo yet... |

the best I found was horn on floor, there was no gain by coupling the mouths, glad you got the cubos making proper noise....

I would say there is no significant difference in spec apart from the qms. |

how do you work that out, specs differ a lot.... there are cabs I would use the v1000 over the 1850 and vice versa.....

they are pretty similar but as bee said there are some apps where one as the edge usualy if one is good in a cab to the other would be providing it fits USUALY
if thats te case i would suggest getting the smaller amp checked out and check te cables you used for bridge as i said they should not be wired te same as for normal operation [im sure te ma do bridge on both channel + pins no?]
