Yes, that is along the lines of what I want. I wasn't going to go with two 15s though. But why not?

The two 8s I am pretty much set on, as they should be able to handle the proposed ~250Hz xover well, and will only be playing up to 2kHz or so. That would give both the mids and the woofers three octaves to handle, and the tweeter a bit more than three? Correct?

Mmm, I need to check out some more drivers now.

And very neat little 2x12/bullet cab, Geoff! What drivers have you chosen?
I wouldn't worry about octaves, I'd just concentrate on the Freq' range and response of each driver then design and build the rest of the system around that. Combining your Cx3210 with an EP2500 for the 15's and an EP1500 for the mid/tweeters, should give a rather flexible setup for different venues and there problematic accoustics. It would also be a very cheap rig given its potential power.


Were you refering to me about the 2x12's, If so, I am using some older instrument drivers. They are rated 100W each and willshoot down to about 40 HZ.
