Alright, I was more concerned about the large diameter woofer handling the higher frequencies. But since your point is that the diameter of the cone has nothing to do with the frequency response, then why do you think you can't use a smaller driver or drivers in a properly tuned cabinet to get bass as good as that produced from an 18 inch driver?
