E145-8 vs. 2235

[Allanvh5150]

I would have to agree with Widget. Go with the 2245 and the E145 crossed over at 80 hertz. I have always liked the 80 hertz crossover point as it keeps all the "sound" out of the sub and the sub can concentrate on moving air. You will have a very nice setup.

what do you plan to use on top of the 2123 ?

I will be using a 2446h compression driver and a 2382a horn. Crossover will be an Ashly Protea 4.24c, 4 in, 8 out. I will need another crossover to the subwoofers but I don't know what that will be yet. Amps are undecided except for my current amp, a Crown Macro Reference that I've owned for a dozen years. 760 watts/channel - great woofer amp. I will be looking for eight more channels of amplification. It's very likely that they will be all pro amps simply because of the bang/buck advantage but I'd like them to be quiet, cheap, reliable and at least 200 watts/channel. I'll probably have to compromise on one thing or another. I don't know if what I want exists but I'm looking. I favor Crown and QSC.

As I said offhandedly in some post above (or was it another thread?), a JBL 2404h. I probably don't really need it as I don't hear the really high frequencies that well, but I want it anyway.

Ah, that explains the obsession with piles of woofers.
