I realize this is an old thread but your involvement with Stephens speakers led me to conclude that you might know the best cabinet plans for the 80 fr. I have a pair and would like to maximize their bass response.

Thanks.

I have a pair of 80FR's that are "almost" stock. I was in the speaker cabinet
manufacturing business in 1960. I bought about 200 80FR's from Stephens at that
time. (Shortly after Burt Berlandt joined the company.) They are the standard
80FR build with two exceptions: The cast baskets are unpainted, and the
connections are solder terminals rather than the binding posts. I kept about 4
of these drivers for 40 years. I have just the two left. They are in excellent
condition. Please tell me why you want this particular speaker. (It will help
me decide whether I want to part with them, assuming you want them.)
