	For your long term plan, I don't think HD15s will be the best combo with 1850s. Neither drops very low without a stack of them. The 1850 is an all around bass enclosure, and would be a good replacement upgrade for an HD15. If you want more bass below the HD15s you could do a band pass subwoofer or else some scoops. If you are only going to build a pair, I would go with some Tapped horns or Bass Reflex for bass duty. HD15s and MT130s for that matter will sound much better if you have a bunch of them in each stack.

	Purpose is starting a free party rig which I hope to expand over time! No other speaker at present but later on will be used maybe with 1850's? And for tops I was considering mt130's? Or maybe for ease buy some for now?

	What's your purpose for this project? Are you planning to add the HD15's to other speakers? If so, what are they? If not, you will also need to think about what top boxes to use with the HD's. A pair of HD15's on their own isn't going to be of much use to anyone..

	Iv got next to no knowledge of building a sound system but have some carpentry experience so the woodwork shouldn't be a problem! The things that worry me are crossovers? Drivers? Amps? Would just like some general help as I'm not sure where to look! thanks jack
