I am about to start building my Pi7 horns, recently received the plans recently from Wayne. I have a pair of Peavey 22XT compression drivers. I have not seen any discussion about Peavey 22XT in the forum and I am not sure if this driver would make a suitable as high frequency unit for the Pi7.

The specifications are as follows:
Throat parameter: 1"
Nonimal impedenance: 8 ohms
Sensitivity : 111dB SPL 1w/1m on a CH-2 horn
Frequency range: 500-20,000 Hz
Frequency range: +/- 2dB 500-3,200 Hz, -3dB@8,000 Hz
6dB roll off from 8,000-20,000 Hz
Diaphragm: titanium
Power capacity : 40 watts

I would appreciate any comments regarding its suitability and possible compensation network.
Regards

Do you happen to have response measured on a plane wave tube?

Thank you for your response to my post. No, I don't have any measurements but maybe they are published somewhere. I am living in Barbados and I purchased the components from a pro audio shop locally.

I have used the Peavey 22XT, along with Peavey CH3 horn lens, and they are very good.

By the way, the 22XT sounds a lot like the Eminence 1" drivers. I'd say it's probably about an even match.
