So, I have these vintage 6-½" 8 Ohm woofers made by Rola in late '71, and they sound great so long as you don't push them into IMD. I was initially going to use them as Bookshelf speakers, but I kinda wanted to take them into the outdoors as well. So how about a 60's-70's aesthetic DIY boombox with great SQ & bass? They're perfect for just that with their high compliance rubber surrounds, low resonance lightweight cones and pressed curvilinear design for respectable cone breakup.
Here are pictures of the drivers and an excursion test:
Here is a SQ test with just the woofer running full-range in a test enclosure:
