[QUOTE="Peter Morris, post: 213488, member: 652"] Hi Joris, I’m not sure how low you can use the BMS2236 horn, its cut off frequency is 400Hz so you maybe able to use it to around 600Hz with good results. If you can do this then 2 x 15” speakers will work quite well below it. The Eminence Kappa Pro LF2's have about half the Xmax of the Faital Pro 15hp1060’s I used … but if you are crossing over to a sub at 90Hz there should not be an issue with Xmax. You will however need to use a different box volume and tuning frequency to suit these speakers. With this combination I don’t see any advantage with a kick bin. If you were to use 12” drivers under the BMS horn then you could cross over to the horn a little higher and get a bit more SPL out of the 4592 but you would have less low mid capability. If you use this combination for EDM then I suspect there would be an advantage using a kick bin between the 12's and the sub. [/QUOTE]
