Crossover prices are per board.

The required attenuation will probably be something like 12dB or 14dB. You can easily match sensitivities of midwoofer and tweeter with π pad R1/R2 values but it takes a design/test cycle to set the position of the forward lobe and vertical nulls. You probably shouldn't assume that the Kappalite 3015 will work as a drop-in replacement for the JBL 2226 or the Omega 15. There are differences that may require crossover changes in the low-pass network. The link below describes the process I use to optimize the crossover for the drivers chosen.
