I'll send plans to your E-Mail account, so you can get started on the cabinets.

As others have said, the JBL 2226H is a best-of-class midwoofer. In my opinion, there are no better woofers than the JBL 22xx series devices, and in saying that, I am including the GPA and AE product offerings. Everybody is trying to catch the JBLs, but in my opinion, none are able to.

The CD we use is the B&C DE250. It also is a world-class driver, and most consider it to be the "one to beat." You can't do better for anything less than a grand. Next step up would be the TAD drivers, and the improvement you get is a tiny sliver of extension above about 18kHz. Not sure I'm willing to pay a grand for that.

You can buy kits from me, or you can source your own parts. Look around on eBay and you may find some good deals on refurbished JBL woofers. But make sure they have genuine JBL cone kits.
