TT driver choice

I've started cutting baltic birch for 3 table tubas. My internal width will be about 14 3/8 inches (works best with 5x5 sheets). I'm sure I'll have way more SPL available than I'll ever use. LF even room response is my goal. Both 8" recommendations seem to be available, and I'm tending toward t...
