    Yes ... I think, the Westminster is a backloadedhorn ... with a little fronthorn ( short waveguide in other words).

    Horses to Water seemingly applies. unfortunately.
    Recycling a pair of Dorky 12" DMT's into a twin Driver Westy reads as Naive.
    IF serious AND determined to DIY ?
    Then Cobbling up these and fitting them with New 604's from GreatPlainsAudio.com would Easily meet / exceed the OP's desires

    I think the issue is the requirement for a 12" Westminster cab-you can't scale horns so in all probability you'll end up shorter horn and smaller mouth ergo with less bass.
    I'd dump the 12" which to my ears is a very compromised speaker and go for a 15DMT or 3833/3836gg 215-which can rearrange your internal organs as a couple on here have witnessed at my place a few years back.
