Dave, your 2" line driver idea has peaked my interest in starting a new project. I already have the Vance D Titanic sub, but wonder if a 6-8" woofer could be easily be added to the bottom of the speaker to the to fill out the lower end a little (see awful diagram below.)

Also, is there any reason why I couldn't make a smaller center channel to match with 16 drivers?

You could definitely add the drivers to fill out the low end, and I would probably suggest it. But, you may have a problem with matching up the levels because the 500hz and above freq will be extremely effecient.

Before you spend too much money, I would suggest buying 4-16 of them to play around with. I can help you with taming the peaks in the upper freq if you find them too disconcerting.

The drivers are extremely inexpensive, and I haven't played around with them to figure out if acceptable performance can be acheived. So, before making them into an expensive project, lets see what kind of performance we can get. Then buy more!

BTW, there are some 8" DVC subs that may matchup well for adding a little bass. You may just need multiples of those as well.
