Wayne, as you know I am building some 7pi-18's for my older son. I just picked up some Altec 811b's for the 4pi Theatre's I am building for myself. My son wants to use the 811b's (in place of the H290's) with the PSD2002's on his 7pi-18's.

Any crossover changes recommended for either of these speakers?

As much as I like 811's, I don't recommend using them on the seven π cornerhorn, or on any of the designs that use the midhorn. The crossover and placement has been optimized for use with a tweeter horn the size of the H290 and the 811 is too different.
