Well, you said the H19040P is to big, so why sell the whole combo? The 250 is still an excellent comb with a good horn. Maybe look at the P-audio PH220/RCF H100. Both very nice 1" horns.

Well I have the Celestion H19040P as I read in the forum it is one of the best for the DE250, and it just cost 20€ and not 80€, not willing to spend that much on horns being such a beginner


It says it's fine till 1,5khz, so it could be good, just that I read that people using horns like B&C ME10 was a very bad choice

Will probably open a post asking for possible "tiny" horns for DE250

Plan is to have the single 15" up to like 180hz or so, then 2x8" Fane Sovereign Pro 8-225 (bought them today) and 2x1"

For the 1"s, I have measured my trunk opening and the most probable thing is that I have to resell the 2x new DE250 and horns xD, because the horns are 320x190mm and that is too much for the opening of the trunk.

I will most probably buy 2x DE10 with tiny 140x140mm horns, or maybe I will try these ones https://www.beyma.com/en/products/c/compression-driver/1SMC8060N8/motor-smc-8060-n-8-oh/

They look good on paper and have a very low crossover for the price, like at 1.5khz, the DE10 is minimum 2,5khz

This is the DSP I'm gonna be using
https://www.stetsom.com.br/en/produto/stx2848/

At 8ohm it should be more or less half the RMS, I'm ok with such a "tiny" amp at first

I don't understand, which ones are the LF drivers and what do you exactly want to mean

I have read it wrong, thought you wanted to use two DE250 per top cabinet.
With LF driver I mean the 8" or 10". DE250 paired with a 8 or 10" driver should work perfectly. I personally use the RCF MB8N251 +DE360 in my smal top cabinets which will be paired with a single 15" or 18" sub. So also in your case, should work fine.

However, I do not have any experience with the listed drivers. What are you going to use to drive it al (amps, crossovers/dsp etc)?

Yeah i cannot fit 2 LF 15" so I'm going with one sub, I read somewhere in this forum that some experienced people say 15/8/1 doesnt work but I think they talk about having 2x of each and not just one sub like in my case.

To add: 1x15/2x10/2x1 vs 1x15/2x8/2x1 is what I'm asking I suppose
