Couple of quick things.
The Audiom 7NV I think you will find is truely a midrange and not a midbass.You want " slightly warm and unfatiguing sound, good with vocals"
But you are picking some drivers based upon sensitivity that do not have those characterisitics (Ravens, TLR and Metal cone midbass).
In the right setup, fine sound can be had, in a slightly off setup those units are going to show you the warts, be their own or the remaining setup.Why the sensitivity target? It's fine, just trying to gather more background to help make more informed suggestions.
What are the supporting electronics/sources?
Getting an MTM up to 93db is not very hard, due to the increased output and lowered overall impedance (assuming parallel connection)
Some of the Focal, Audax, Cabasse and Seas can get you there along with the PHL.
For the price you seem to be willing to pay (TLR/PHl/Ravens) and the type of output/music, you may want to look into some Altec Duplex drivers. Yeah, they will be significantly wider than a 18cm midbass enclosure, but they will meet your design criteria.
Carefull what alleys you go down.
