I suppose you could do that, but I've never been a fan of the idea of a single sub flanked by satellites. I wouldn't try to cover the whole bass range with a single woofer. Use at least two.

The real benefit gained by the π cornerhorn arrangement is the uniformity of its pattern, its spectral balance throughout the room and the large "sweet spot" it provides. They have a natural tendency to balance the stereo image over a fairly wide area in the center of the room. This is due to their uniform directivity and their 45° toe-in, causing the forward axis to cross. All these things are lost when using a single π cornerhorn as a bass bin.
