A number of us have, in the past, used the older 4Pi crossover with 811s and other horns with drivers that include the 806 and 902. We all used bigger boxes than Wayne, 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 cubic feet tuned to 40 Hz, because that's what we had, mostly from the JBL Tent Sale at that time.

Heres a 3 1/2 cu ft JBL 3677 cabinet with a 4 1/2 cu ft behind it and the 811 just peeking out above. If you do a search here for Speakerman57 you'll find a lot of discourse between Ron and Wayne about implementation. I just held Ron's coat
(Wayne, you believe all that goes back nearly 10 years? Yikes!)
After several years of this, I built the dead stock 4Pis with the new crossover and couldn't be happier. Ron's still out there, with Beryllium, this time.
Happiness is:
