I have two Radio Shack 40-1034 drivers that I'd like to use to build a subwoofer but I'm not having any luck finding the T-S parameters for it. Any suggestions on where to look?

Also, any hints as to how make these sound good? I've read that they can be a bit sloppy. I don't need them to be "audiophile" quality since they will be used in a furnished breezeway to supplement some homemade bookshelf speakers that the 7pi's will be replacing.

My plan is to go the Isobaric (sp?) route and I thought about matching them to one of those subwoofer amps available from Parts Express (either that or an older NAD amp I bought on eBay). I don't want to go horn because of size contraints, but I though about a tower configuration to minimize footprint if the required box volume was too high.

Any thoughts?
