I’ve got a couple of pairs of candidates here that could, by cutting new front baffles, house my 604-8G. I’m struggling with the trade-offs, and thought I’d punt to those with more experience.
Pair A:
Currently contain Coral 12TET-1
Volume: ~8.5 cu. ft
Width: -19.9”, narrower
Total height: 39.5”
1960s, Japan, 3/4” stained, finished ply
Pro-built - it shows
Condition is excellent as-is
Towers; higher WAF
Pair B
Currently contain EV Wolverine 3-way
Volume: ~7.5 cu. ft.
Width: 26”, wider, like a shallow 620A
Total height: 42”
1960s, USA, 3/4” stained/finished ply
Home-built - it shows
Condition acceptable without refinishing or veneering
Tall, wide, and shallow; lower WAF
There‘s also a third pair of 4.5 cu. ft. empty cabinets in my closet that I was thinking about using for the 604 in a sealed configuration above my Fostex woofer cabs, but I’m really digging right now on the simplicity of a single pair of speakers, a single amp, and no processor. I think my first foray with Duplexes will be one of the larger two pairs of cabinets.
