: Hello! : I am putting together a system, and would like some advice. I am shooting for the best sound quality, and I want this system to be usable for small private raves, as well as home theatre, and critical home audiophile listening applications, in as compact a form factor as possible. Heres a list of the parts I currently posess: : (2) 1" McCauley 6510 : (2) 10" McCauley 6326 (Fs ~300Hz) : (1) 15" McCauleu B1560 : (1) 15" McCauley 6242 : (1) 18" Aura 1808 : (2) 200L prebuilt Flague cabinets : I am thinking about making a 3-way in these 200L boxes, running an Aura 1808/Seismic 8196 on each channel, crossed over at around 275-325Hz, 24db active. This would be nice, as it would avoid me having to insert a 15" in between the 10" and 18" to cover the lower-mid to midbass, and having therefore to make seprate cabs for the 18"'s. : Is it feasible to run these 18" drivers up that high? I know they are pretty advanced drivers. What drawbacks, if any, are there to doing this? : Otherwise, I will do a 3-way + sub with a 15" coming in at 275-400Hz (likely the B1560 because of its 98db efficiency). Or do you think the 95db 6242 is better? : The 1808's would then be housed in (lightweight) 24" diameter sonotube cabinets, about 4 feet tall, biamped at around <100Hz, down-firing. : I appreciate your suggestions! : Neil
