Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

RE: Who has experience with the C34 back loaded horn? I am considering building a pair.

I run Peavey FH1 bass horns - loaded with cheap but perfect Eminence Kappa 15C.
I use them up to 500Hz without problem; but yes, there is no low bass to speak off. I use two active subs and an active crossover. Depending on your room and music taste, you "might" not need subs.
Advantage of that FH1 enclosure is sensitivity (+100dB, depending on driver) just like a LaScala but with smoother output and less resonating panels. I've put bitumen sheets and just a little but of acoustic foam inside the backchamber of mine.
I've read that 2226 behave quite well in that enclosure, despite not being the ideal horn-load drivers.
They are also extremely cheap (but arguably extremely ugly).
