Of course I can't say without measuring them, but I doubt that your Karlsons do much below 50Hz. Nothing wrong with that of course, and they will be pretty efficient with that driver, but nowadays it's more or less expected that a fifteen would go down to the 30s at least, and an EVM15L just doesn't have that ability without being in a big horn. And yes, it works great in a 100 Hz horn, but again that chore is just as easily accomplished with an eight in a far smaller box. Don't get me wrong, the 15L is a great driver, but one can achieve a very adequate level of performance with a much smaller driver and a much smaller box to put it in. I haven't used a driver larger than a twelve for ten years in pro-sound applications,let alone hi-fi/HT.
