In the Thread: Midrange driver suggestions
Post Subject: Midrange driver suggestionsPosted by homebuilder on: 1/2/2008
I am new to this interesting site, and am hopeful of getting some assistance with a project.  I have purchased a set of TAD 1201 mid-bass drivers to begin a 4-way active system for critical home listening.  (in a dedicated room, 21' x 25' with peaked seilings at 11.5')  I already have the balanced x-over, and tube and solid state amps.

I plan on either the JBL 2226H or 2241H for the bass, and the 2404H for the treble. My problem lies in the midrange.  I'd like to use the 2344a horns with 2426 drivers, but cannot locate any of the horns.  Any help there?  Or, I have considered using either one, or a pair of large cone midranges, such as the JBL 2012H.  Is it practical to use large drivers such as the 2012 in an MTM arrangement?

The cabinet will be built of HDF, and will be multiple layers laminated on top of each other. It will be nearly round. Very heavy, massively braced.  I have friends with a CNC router, so that is a huge help.

Does anyone have any suggestions for the midrange? Other horn combinations?

Thanks!

Greg
