Assuming the advertised T/S parameters are correct, WinISD tells me in a 2.5 ft box tuned to about 56hz the response will dip down to about 3.7dB at 100hz. The Fostex Fe166E in that same box would be down about 4.5dB. So if my target were smooth response with no midbass dip, as you guys have pointed out, neither of these drivers is a good candidate for a 2.5 ft ported box. But I'm still curious about them, and now that I am retired and have a fully equipped workshop and nothing to do all day but build speakers, building a 2.5 ft enclosure really is is no big deal. I can try it, and if I don't like the way it sounds build a different enclosure.
