What would be the possibilty of successfully using the Ciare ND 12.3 midwoofer with a slightly modified Pi mid horn to acheive a bottom rolloff starting around 200Hz? And rolling them off up top around where the JBL 2226 is in the Four Pi at 1.3kHz?

Thanks for any input regarding this possibility, and Wayne for the Ciare measurements.

If you get the driver, we can measure it on the horn. The bottom end can be modeled with Hornresp, but the upper end is largely determined by the way the cone behaves at HF. This cannot be simulated with a pistonic model, so we'll need measurements to see how it acts.
