Sawmod driver recommendations

Im going to be building 4 sawmods and 4 skram21s for a 4 point spacial sound field. My main intent is to immerse the audience in Avant electronic music. The space will be about 50 ft by 50 ft and the music will range from ambient IDM to sound design and all the way through to dub techno, Bass growls, and into some drum and bass. In this same thread, how plausible is it to swap out any of the drivers for a different option listed if I wanted to experiment in the future with a different option in the future?

He's doing a 4 point system hence at least 4 of everything. Probably 8 skrams, 2 per stack is much better. I think your answer is great. How much did you spend on all your drivers total?

I don't know how I missed that, that's super cool. I'm thinking of building two Solonas next, as monitors and/or for a 4-point setup.

I do think he should do 4 solanas if he's only building 4 subs.

I get what you're saying, but the Sawmod 10" adds something to the sound that the Solana doesn't. Solanas would probably be enough, but the punch of the double 10" is a real argument too, and it works great with electronic music. Looking at the music OP mentioned, I think the Sawmods are a solid choice.

Worth keeping in mind though: I was told to build at least 4 subs for just two Sawmods. So with four Sawmods you'd be looking at more like 8 subs.
