looks like a 5" speaker to me. Cool. What do you use for a pre? It's got to be 8 or 16 ohms. I've used 18" speakers in front of kiks but they have weak signal into pres with normal impedance, if you transform the impedance it helps a little. Great 3:2 translation, size wise (22" a 18"). I mount one inside on elastics with a beta 56 off axis pointed at the beater and it works even if you put the second head on. With a bass cabinet I'll screw a speaker directly to another on the cabinet 10, 15, 18, and it gives me true response from lo-lo to about 3k, the highs are a different story but with bass I seldom need them, anything higher is usually annoying, it's power and dynamics I'm looking for, direct translation.
