Two speakers I would recommend. One Ceramic and the other Neo. The Ceramic is the 15PLB76. 3" coil and 100.db. The second is the 15NW76. 3" coil and 100.5db efficiency. power handling is 400 and 600 watts respectively.
I will now PM you the prices.

However, there is no problem sending speakers anywhere> The range you require is not available on many speakers. If I can assume it will be a 12 and a horn/compression driver, you would only want to go to around 1200 to 1500hz for the x/o point. One thing that becomes important with a monitor and that is dispersion. I mention the lower points because at around 1000 hz, a 12"speaker begins to beam and it separate from the horn. What you really need is for the horn to take over before this happens. A little bit either way doesn't seem to matter.

Hi Tony A.S.S, sorry for the late reply, but in regards to the B&C speakers the reason why i wanted to go 12 inch was mainly because of the ease of portability i want a monitor that can be easily carried around here and there small,efficient and light weight, but i am contemplating on using a celestion 1750 compression horn driver with a No bell horn flare together with a 12 inch speaker driver(B&C) , the crossover is a Jbl mrx 512 passive crossover handling about 350 to 400 watts, the 12inch speaker will be going all the way up to 1.800 HZ at the set crossover point and then the horn driver will be going down to 1.800HZ to meet the cut off frequency of the speaker at the lower x/o point but i really wanted to go 12 inch because the size would be smaller than a 15inch enclosure it would've been ideal for the purpose.
Thanks bryan.
