you would be surprised at the amount of bass that comes from the OBs I have had to attenuate the HF only by 8db. A friend here in Chennai has the 288g and 416 in a half horn box design and he attenuate s by about 12 db. That being said I am planning a western electric sub woofer design for either the goodmans or the second pair or altec 416s I have .
