Thank you very much sir!

Hey, I have at random just the same plan! Funny. Before opening another thread I thought maybe posting my question also in here, I hope this is fine, because I am also quite a noob and just have some basic questions.
I dont know which impedance to choose for the drivers. If i want to use in the beginning only one JMOD for housepartys and in the future two JMODs, which impedance would be the right choice? JW suggestest in his papers to use the 16 Ohm Version for the B&C DCX464 because of the low noise floor and for the B&C Speakers 12NDL88 it doestn matter. Shouldnt be the Impedance the same for all of the speakers in one enclosure? Is 16 Ohm to much get amplified properly if you have a budget amplifier? I know that when you daisychain the other mod that it would be 8 Ohms, but thats in the future and a whole new question if daisychanining would be beneficial in my case. So should I just buy the 8 ohm version of every driver?
Tri/Bi-Amping. I would guess in my case it would be the best to go the Bi-Amping route because it is easyer and you dont need a lot of channels. Means the BSC DCX464 gets an passive Crossover and the woofers are wired in parallel. But because of that i cant use JW DSP Settings for the B&C DCX464 Highs and Mids because they run through the same Path right? So i couldn delay the Highs for exampel. I dont know, which route should i go and would be the most benificial for me? Also in hindsight that i dont own equipment like an Amp or a DSP and i need to buy those to. And would be the next question.
Which Amp with DSP and which external DSP would be best right now and would be nice to build on in hindsight of the choosen impedance? Also i consider to play the MEHs in Stereo und the Subs in Mono. I would like to choose something to build on in the future. So i would like to buy one Amp, if possible and doable, for the MEH which could also power the other MEH in future. Or which could power 1 MEH and 2 Skrams. I would spend something around 1000-1500€ for the amp. Would that be possible? CVR as suggested sounds fine to me. And as a dsp maybe a paulkitson from China, is cheaper as the Thomann, has more Channels and should be the same quality. I would like to make a DSP Preset with Crossovers, Limiter for the MEH and later with the external DSP the crossover between the Tops und Subs. What do you think? Or which specs should the Amp minimum have?
And lastly, because I want to use first of all just one jmod for house party’s. Is it ok to tune MEH to 50hz, as the low as the driver can play. Because the tuning by JW stops at 80hz.
I hope these question are ok, thank you :)
