  Well, you see, when i was buidling my imperial, it was towards the end of last summer, when money was running low because i was working less and school was comming up and i had spent a lot on the 6 damn sheets of mdf and the two 15's used in constructing my imperial.  So i just picked up one of these http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=264-225 (it was cheep and would hopefuly get the job done until i got more money again... the new girlfriend 6 months ago helped drain my money once again,  :'()  I believe i got this horn with it http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=270-099.  I'm not too sure if its a good horn/driver or not, i just needed something at the time to pick up some HFs.  It sounds fine to me, although i havent listened to better horns than this.  I was planning on possibly purchasing a better driver in the next few months and making a wooden horn for it.  Or i might just put all of my money (once again) towards another imperial.  :-*

Just out of interest what frequencies have you guys crossed over at? I didnt realise the imperial had such a wide freq range.

I did the same and was very pleased with the results

if the imperial does get moved a lot, then i would consider covering the outside with automotive carpet, and putting metal corner guards on over it, then painting the horn mouth flat black.  This will make it look VERY Pro, and add some acoustic dampening as well.  The only downside is that carpets generally a tad more pricey then paint, but then maybe not as much as rhino lining.
