At the moment I am using the small Smith horn in one of my systems all the way up. One of the horns rolls off around 15K and the other one around 16K.

The easiest build is the Smith. Since you are not afraid of the building challenge I urge you to build at least a couple of alternatives and report your experiences back here.

IME there are quite different HF response with different materials/finishes. So a mockup in MDF/chipboard usually won't give you the best HF response. You need to either apply a good finish or use solid wood, oiled or varnished.

Hi Johnny
My choice is for Yuichi 480, the building is not a problem because my woodworker has a pantograph. I fear for final result: I want to be shure that sonically It will be good with JBL 2225h & 2425j.
Let me know,
thank you very much
