should be a good simple set up, i use a very similar rig with good results.

what drivers do you plan to use in the ES18?

i loded the es18's with rcf lf18n401 sound great but the box isn't to good. withouth bracing at the moth of the horn the bottom plate shakes like u woulden't beleve. i abdandoned this project and now i will build 4x planar wawe horn, mircea bartic design

You can still add bracing. I wouldn't give up quite yet.

Yah, those look like they need some bracing, Stick a couple panels that should fit right in there, ought to stiffen it up a good deal.

It looks like those have the center bottom brace extending much further than yours, and they also have a horizontal brace.
I'd do it ASS scoop/punisher/USB2 style and extend it all the way to the front, and not make the braces too deep.

I'd do it like either of those, or if I wanted to get fancy, curve it some like that guy who wont disclose what he did with the chamber in the "USB2"
