[QUOTE="Silas Pradetto, post: 2171, member: 34"] I have to replace my last four LAB subs very quickly since I think they are sold. Here are the criteria: [LIST] [*]Must be 22.5" or less in one dimension (quarter pack!) [*]A non-ridiculous quantity must have output near 4 LAB subs, or say, 8 double 18s [*]Response to 40Hz is required, lower is better though [*]I'd like to be able to move them by myself. I can move LABs, but not so easily. [/LIST] As far as I know, nothing front loaded is going to fit the bill. The only thing that pops into my head immediately are TH118s, probably 4 to 6 of them. Another idea I had was maybe 8 Yorkville UCS1s? According to my quick excel sheet, 8 UCS1s will be 1dB quieter than 4 LAB subs, while 4 TH118s will be about 2dB quieter than 4 LAB subs. The 6 TH118s would certainly do the job. Cost-wise, the UCS1s are cheapest. The TH118s aren't so cheap. Another option was building some other DIY horn that is smaller than a LAB, but is there anything out there that could possibly fit the bill? [/QUOTE]
