A pair of 8" for bass drum? I don't see the need for anything that fast
for that particular instrument. I am fond of using 18" for LF
reinforcement, crossed over at 80 cycles to 15" drivers. For small
venues (clubs, bars, etc.) I like 4 18", 4 15", and a pair of good
mid/high packs, and 8 channels of amplification with appropriate output
for each cabinet. Take care.
