You're right I do already know what the 4520 sounds like and it's a sound I personally like.
Would be easy at some point to add one of the other types of bass enclosures that go lower than the 4520 should that be needed which can be crossed over at 42Hz using one of those Yamaha amps.
I'm debating on whether the 4560 was a good choice for the midbass cabinets due to its size.
In a way I'd like to stick with the Bullfrog cabinets or just have some Altec 816A built from the plans. That way I can still put speakers back in the wall on one side and hanging from the ceiling on the other side to have them in their original configuration.
When they originally stopped using the Bullfrogs and Yamaha horns and just had the EV cabinets on the 4520s I noticed more of an echo that wasn't present when speakers were in all 8 locations.
From looking at some of the remains of the original system I don't think there was any sort of crossover used originally that I could see unless the owner had installed a capacitor in the Yamaha horns which I didn't see any evidence of and that may explain why two Yamaha horns were missing their drivers as they probably blew from seeing a full range signal for too many years.
Those Yamaha amps will make setting up the system so much easier as the built in DSP does the crossover, EQ, delays ETC...
Now concerning the 811B and midbass cabinets I'm going to try one passive 12 db/octave crossover on one midbass and horn just to see how it sounds and if the midbass and horns are balanced with each other. If they are not I will go with another Yamaha amp for the midbass and horns.
That said if I do two 4520 cabinets side by side or stacked per corner I would need two amplifiers anyways.
Far as mounting the 811B horns I will most likely have cabinets built so I can set them on top of the midbass cabinets, although if I have some 816A cabinets built I could have the builder build in a space for the 811B horns to mount right in the cabinet unless there's already plans out there for an 816A and 811B two way cabinet.
Here's the speaker placement options I can go with
I could just get the stuff and do it like one of those huge Jamaican sound systems with stacks upon stacks of speakers
EDIT:
Is there any good plans for the 4520?
