Midhorn implementation

Hi Wayne,

Hope you had a great holiday! I have a couple of questions. I'm interested in using the midhorns with JBL 2012 drivers. I'd like to try to bring the midhorn low enough to match a pair of 2226 woofers per side. The woofers are being run with a subwoofer plate amp which utilizes a 12 db/octave lowpass variable from 40-160 hz. Can the midhorn be scaled slightly larger to lower the useable cutoff? I'll be using a 2426/2370 horn above and would be interested in the crossover schematic between the midhorn and hf horn. My 2426 is a 16 ohm part, so I'll have to pad the mid an extra 3 db or so(will be used along the wall and not corner loaded, doesn't have to match woofer system though). Thanks for any help you can provide.

P.S. After dragging out the 4648 enclosures and loading them with the 2226J woofers, the wife thought they were pretty cool! I'm looking to configure similarly to audiophile Pi type setup using a seperate amp on the woofer section and passive network between horns. The 2226 cabinets presently sound great reinforcing the "little" 2 pi towers!

Take care! Jerrod
