Ok, I've been thinking alot about my future 4Pi build. I have a very interesting question I'd like to pose to you, Wayne. I'm thinking of starting out with the standard 3Pi and 12" Eminence Delta 12LF. This is to save on initial costs (until I can save more money). I'd eventually like to upgrade to the JBL 2226H 15" driver. Here's my question:

Since they share the same CD and WG, can I build the 3Pi to the 4Pi cabinet specs so that I can later cut the baffle and drop in the JBL 2226H driver? I know the 3Pi cabinet is somewhat larger than the 4Pi. How much will this affect the performance of the 3Pi in a 4Pi cabinet? I would also use the 4Pi Port and Horn setup. The only change will be the 12" driver in it for the time being until I can afford the 2226H.

I'm trying to save time and materials in having to rebuild the speaker cabinet at the time that I can afford the 2226H. What are your thoughts?
