What to build in ProAc Response 2 Cabinets?

[bigerik]

Hi All
Just got word from a friend of mine that he had found me a pair of excellent shape and VERY well crafted cabinets from an old pair of ProAc Response 2 speakers. Now I am wondering what to build into them. The obvious is to try to replicate the original, but I am wondering what else I could do. Not a ton of money available for this project, so it would have to be midline quality drivers. Anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Erik

Might consider doing an ar.com kit from madisound. $175 last I saw, including assembled x-overs. I've heard nothing but positive things about the systems. I'm currently building a set for a friend.

bigerik,
Look at Troels web site.
You would found any project to fit in your cabinet.

Yes, they are 6.5's.
Will try to get the box volume figured out today.
Thanks for the tips!
