Lose the Peaveys. 2x15 tops have almost no value. Midrange dispersion is poor, the cab is huge and heavy. If you're running subs there's no value whatsoever in having fifteens in the tops. For what you want a top to do one 3012HO loaded OTop will beat a PV215 in a third the size and weight. That's what you want for tops, stick the Kilomaxes into T48s, don't waste them in the Peaveys.

This is the first cab I bought, HOW I HATED IT!! with a passion!
They were just like yamaha's on the high end. After three minutes your ears would be fatigued and it always sound just spikey. Not to mention they weighed as much as two of t39 and were just as big. Probably even bigger and heavier. And they sucked amp power like milk through a jumbo straw
yeah, sell the peavys and finance everything else you will need.
Bill thank you for getting me the t48 plans to me so quickly. I have a quick question for you after reading the directions a few times. I was wondering how wide would you make them with the kilomax drivers I have? It seems that wider is better for the 3015lf does the same still stand with the kilomax drivers. Thank you again, Dan

The same width considerations that apply to the 3015LF apply to the Kilomax.
Is there any advantage of building t48 larger than the 36" width? If there is a advantage of going over 36" at what point are they to wide? If there is an advantage is it much of one? Any Charts? These will hardly ever be moved. Thank you all!
Ok I have one cab all built with the kilomax driver all ready to go and in the cab after a long burn in. I built a 36 inch wide titan. What should i limit the rms on this driver for this cab? I saw the previous post of 350 watts. I Just wanted to make sure this was correct. Is that a power rating i can run continuous to this driver? What do you all think? Ready to hear it
According to my calculations, limit the KiloMax 15 at 59 Volts RMS. V= the square root of (watts times impedance)
350*10 Ohms = 3500 square root = 59.16 VRMS
