djk Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 What is your budget? Do you want a two-way, or are you going to add a tweeter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biglaz Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Sub $300.00 range. 2 or 3 way I can do either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 http://www.parts-express.com/pdf/294-605.pdf The graph in the spec sheet is on a much smaller horn than your 811, it will have no problem with an 800hz crossover at 12dB or steeper. Dr Geddes crosses this driver at 900hz to the 15 in his Summa loudspeaker. http://www.freespeakerplans.com/forum/download/file.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=64&jfile=file.php&id=329 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blvdre Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I have a pair of those for my 4pi builds. They are regarded as having good bang for the buck, and are popular in the DIY community, as are the BMS CDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biglaz Posted May 27, 2011 Author Share Posted May 27, 2011 Thanks, That driver looks promising and not to expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juniper8 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 As an option, you may want too speak with Bill at great plains audio, he knows alot about your horn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
