Hi Wayne, as there is little difference between the 2225 and the 2226, I was wondering if it would be possible to substitute the 2225 in a 4pi build using the stock crossover. I have the 2225's already as well as some DE250, so I'd just need to buy some flares from you, buy the few crossover parts I don't have and build the cabs.

2225 is .5 db more efficient and is 3hz to 5hz higher on the bottom end rolloff. I prefer a larger box (4 cu ft) tuned to 40hz to 42hz for better LF response.
If you are not golden earred then a direct drop in would be okay as the 2226 was the successor to the 2225 and JBL said no mods necessary. Don't forget they were referring to pro sound use.
Just my 2 cents worth!
My latest 2-way is using JBL's 1501Fe drivers. I'll start a thread when I get it up and running.
I consider the 1501Fe the descendant of the 2226 if it where engineered for more LF response at the cost of 4 db/w less efficient.
Regards, Ron
