The 2118 is also used in the larger Sythesis Systems too. I have a pair I am going to make rears with 2404's a 1/2 a 4612! Its a nice sounding driver. If you want a horn loadable JBL 8" go with the M209-8 used in the 3115. I have a pair of them from the tent also a nice sounding driver. You can buy them from JBL, look in the driver list. Mike B. had a pair of 3115 set up at the MAF and they were damn nice!

Ok, nice to hear from you!

Ahh, i do not know how to say this in english, is it
called "dispersion" ? how the sound is on axis and
not on axis

in swedish "spridning".

the 8" driver maybe has better "dispersion" than the 10" ?

[Robh3606]

Well the smaller the driver the better the dispersion as long as the driver is clean and not in break up modes depending on how high you plan to cross it over. It does well up to the 3k crossover in the 4612. You won't be going that high with it as a midrange??

Never heard 2118H but I use a pair of D216 front loaded with 136A(4333awx enclosure) and ALTEC 806 in my system between 320Hz to 1200hz.You can't use these drivers up to 1500HZ/1800hz max.Hope that's help
