opt b: 2X 186 loaded with P.Audio SD18el
medjo kakapusin budjet kasi e. .
tnx
186 = folded horn from speakerplans
Neither of the two options is a good choice, if you will choose option A make sure the driver jh 181 is tough enough to handle air press and the heat inside 186 front chamber. Ive used initially T&T drivers but all of them got ripped off. This box was designed based on PD 186 (Precision Device) TS parameters which has a stronger motor and a tougher cone.
Option B, SD18EL is one of the best affordable driver that you can use in 186 but you must have at least 4 bins for you to really the power of 186, ipon ipon ka lang muna. Ive got six 186 bins at the moment previously installed with sd18el and they sounded clean, warm and round. But in single it will not go low enough, it will be just around 58hz but in stack of four it will go below 40hz with a very clean kick, habang lumalayo ka gumaganda tunog.
just sharing my experience with 186..
