This has been a good thread which has produced several useful suggestions, some of which I probably will implement in the future, but for now I plan to build the enclosures to David's specs and hear how they sound after a breakin period (I assume the same 100 hours that's recommended for Fostex drivers applies to Audio Nirvana drivers too).

Sometime in the future I hope to do a side-by-side comparison with some other single driver speakers including Omega speakers, Lowther Medallions, and Third Rethm speakers that are owned by fellow members of the Lone Star Bottleheads. I have found this kind of comparison using a small group of experienced listeners is an especially useful exercise because it gets comments from listeners who are not biased by ownership of one or the other (as I tend to be). I'll post a summary of my conclusions.
