Xandcg, these bass compression drivers is a controversial subject. T think there are 3 of them ALE 160 and P1260 and GOTO SG-146LD. I think they all 4”, it would be very nice if they were 6”. However, 6” exit might be a bit too wide for compression type diaphragms.  Anyhow, as I said it is those drivers are debatable. We kind of accustomed that in compression drivers the intrinsic sonic quality of compression drivers is very much observable. However, with midbass channel it is more complicated. If with MF channel you make a proper horn then good 50-60% of sound is the sound of compression driver itself. With midbass the total sound of channel is about 20% come from the driver and the rest comes from the horn design, channels integration methods, room integration methods and a few other factors. So, in my view the bass compression drivers mostly a cause of problem then a solution and I would be very watchful to employ them.>>
