Hi, I was hoping someone could help me out with this. I got my hands on these Marsland Le Cavalier 10" speakers by purchasing what seemed to be a 1960's Philco audio unit for thirty bucks at a garage sale. Now, I was wondering if someone knew what size box I would need for these full range drivers. The frequency response on the speakers is from 50-18000 hz and they are rated at 25 watts. I don't have any other specs than that to go on. I also don't know what type box would best suit this speaker (T.S. line or horn enclosure or open baffle). If anyone has worked with this speaker, I would really appreciate any information offered up on them.
Thank-you
David

le cavalier 10" enclosure
Here's the info for the 10" speaker:
It's a bass-reflex enclosure.
It has a horizontal rectangular opening at the bottom of the front panel.
The speaker cutout seems slightly higher then the center position of the front panel (maybe 2 inches).
The distance between bottom of panel and bottom port edge seems the same as distance between upper port edge and the bottom of speaker cutout.
interior dimensions:
height 28 inches
width 22 inches
depth 12 inches
port height 3 inches
port width 10 inches
speaker cutout 9 inches
material thickness 3/4 inches
e.g: the exterior width would be (22 + 3/4 + 3/4) thus, 23.5 inches.
use plywood or particle board.
glue and screw all boards. ..except back panel which should have felt gasket when screwed into place.
line interior walls with 1" thick fibre-glass (except front panel).
Personally, I would add tweeters and 2-way crossovers. I had 8" le-cavalier speakers and were somewhat lacking at high frequencies.
Good luck 🙂
