Which would be a better choice?  Both will be on the same amount of power, 2400 watts (set correctly for no clipping, overpowering signals, etc) per pair, mainly for mainstream hiphop/pop, but techno/rock/country/electro, a little bit of everything played.  I will be making 4 total.  Thanks

i just installed 18ps76 in reflex cabinets, and in my opinion 2400w for 2 of them is way too much

Hm.  Have you used the Peavey's?  And how would they compare?

Anybody tried a lowrider in a 186 horn yet? Or do I have to be the first?

They successfully built a folded horn for the lowrider, so how different could the cabs be? Peavey claims it goes down to 30hz.
