Wayne,
I am willing to trade the bottom end extension for the higher SPL. Also, I had 2245's in the past and there are issues with them that I don't want to deal with.

I have a pair of cabinets that are 8.8 cu ft and tuned for 28 hz. I know that will leave me somewhere around 40hz for bottom end which is okay for me. I never had a problem with my 2226's which had about the same bottom end response.

And the 98db efficiency beats out the 95db of the 2245's. I will be running Yamamoto 45 SET amp for 2 watts/chnl.

Also, if I ever get some Edgar sub horns, I will be set for drivers as the specs are excellent for a sub-horn driver.
Ron
