[QUOTE="Greg Cameron, post: 121464, member: 42"] Re: Determining Load Ratings When Not Specified (16 ohm) I hear you on that. The old Rat Traps I have use 2440/2441s with Radian diaphragms in them. A nice 2-3k cut required to tame the icepick. Not much extension past 12k even with the newer diaphragms which is why they're a "4-way" box with an additional 1" horn operating from 8k on up. The 1" were TADs. I've swapped them to some new 18 Sound drivers. I got tired of paying $600 for TAD diaphragms and the 18 Sound drivers sound pretty much the same to my ear in that application at a fraction of the price and weight :) Running up to 4 drivers of the JBL (16 ohm) & 18 Sound (8 ohm) drivers off of each side of a Crest 4801.
