JBL 2446 & 2226 in a Corner Horn Design

Currently have a Pi 4 that has been modded three times to accomodate differet drivers. The speakers are currently loaded with JBL 2446 compression drivers and JBL 2226 woofers.

I'm looking for a new cabinet design that could leverage these drivers. I believe the simple answer to the following question is yes, perhaps, but would require some cabinet redesign and significant cross-over changes.

Question 1:
Could the Pi 7s Corner Horn be reconfigured to accomodate the JBL 2446 plus horn? The JBL 2226 are already included in Wayne's design. The magnet for the JBL 2446 is 30 lb.s plus, and the drivers are over the top cool however impractical they may be for home audio.

Question 2:
JBL's offers really great drivers and since they don't have a 10 in. driver that I am aware of, is it out of the question to use the JBL 2206 (12 in) for the mid-range driver?

Thanks
