You'll need something along the lines of a WT-3 (Woofer Tester). Without something of the sort, there's really no way to tell what the parameters are for an appropriate enclosure. Maybe someone can help by finding a spec sheet about the speaker. Pictures of the front and back, including any printing on the magnet, might help.
Sorry I couldn't have been at least somewhat helpful.

Look to the size of the TV as a guide, i.e. too big to bother, so OB or at least a relatively large ~aperiodic cab around 2-3 ft^3 and preferably as a TL. Note too the power supply specs is only flat from 100-10 kHz at 5% distortion, further confirming a typical TV's high Fs, Qts driver.

Your PC with a sound card and a tone generator software can be the signal generator/frequency counter. All you need is an amplifier and a resistor and a voltmeter. Or you can build a simple jig and use speaker workshop.
