Wayne,
The part maybe you looked over when you said the midband is mostly 8 ohms would be with the 2226H, I am using the 2226J (16 ohm version), By the way, I swapped to the 16 ohms taps, swapped out the solid waste preamp and back with the Dynaco PAS. and everything started sounding good again. I will look into a Foreplay preamp instead of the Dynaco for the future. So, recapping this lessons learned for me, the JBL 2226J (16 ohm) with standard 1.6khz crossover(which is around 20 ohms, right Wayne) does do best on the 16 ohm taps.
On the Paramours though, use of the 8 ohm tap for the same setup yields best results.
By the way, TillE will be doing some woodwork for me and so he will have either a pair of 811B or 511B horns, and a pair of 806A drivers to put on them. I can't wait for him to put that together!!!
Take care all, Ron
