Yes, should be a breeze for it to do 200-800 hz. Dunno where I'm going to fit the fourth amp though..

Trying to avoid having to build my own horns. :-)

I've nearly gone 4 way for about three years with a pair of Altec Lancing Alinco 420a biflex drivers to make the Lampizator P24's but I'm happy at how things sound at the moment.
Those that have made the jump from where I am now keep on yelling at me to go for it but I'm still sitting on the fence.
Glad your still enjoying the horns Ali.

If I went four way I may go active, I have the boards, hand made over spec toroids and chassis and heat sinks for another Wonfor 40W class A amp. But I would still need another two amps, which is a lot of gear to have, another wee down side to it......but still tempted, I keep on nearly selling the big Altec speakers, but I'll keep them for a little while longer
