Welcome to the IHoP
Altec's...100+ lbs per channel, the horns and compression drivers are rated down to 300Hz and have a sensitivity in the 110dB/W/1m neighborhood. Built for several hundred-seat movie theaters in the '60s, but it turns out they sound damn good when put in slightly different cabinets, rip the stock Xovers out and bi-amp 'em actively

Welcome to the IHoP
Might be selling the Fostex's soon. Friend of mine with some stuff I want told me he's liquidating a large part of his horn collection...I wouldn't even try to move this stuff into my apartment, way too large...but it'd be worth the wait and then some Need to see how much he's wanting, don't want to jinx anything yet.

What route to go with mids & highs
So...umm...turn the subbass down? I've never understood the idea of trying to make the front stage loud enough to overcome the subbass, when the obvious solution is just to turn the bass down in the first place.

What route to go with mids & highs
4 midbasses are going to be tough to get sounding right, from a phase point of view...unless you have them running as a psuedo-three way with one set crossed over lower than the other. Unless you're just trying to get loud, in which case just buy whatever's cheap and throw them in.

http://www.zaphaudio.com Read his reviews I'd look into Seas, their CA18RNX seems to get good reviews. And a few people here use them (///M5, Adrian_D) Or Adire Extremii if you can find them.

Welcome to the IHoP
I really hate shopping. It involves navigating hordes of people, and that's something I loathe. But it needs to be done.

Sundown Dream System
Running a W-200, why not run active with the H701 processor? Seems a waste to go passive when you've got that kind of source.

Listen to what you've been told, it's good advice.

10" BTL
Will depend on your listening habits and what you consider "musical" But they're more versatile than a burp-only woofer.

AUTOTEK MM4000.1D OR 2-SAZ-1500Ds
I'd call 2.5kW each fairly underrated myself : Although slightly under 2kW is far more likely in a realistic situation...
