I built a pair of these in 1972 when I was 19 using some ceiling speakers from a grocery store I got from somewhere. Later, I put some Radio Shack 8" full-range drivers in there.
I used 1/2" particle board covered with walnut vinyl.
I guess I thought they sounded pretty good but was dissatified with the real high frequency response. I bought some of those little Radio Shack horn tweeters and some goosenecks and was going to install the tweeters on the goosenecks so I could aim the tweeters at the listening position but I never did do that. I just mounted the tweeters at the top of the front panel.
Bass was OK but not real deep.
My father-in-law and I built a pair of scaled-down ones for some 4" speakers he had.
And a friend of mine and I built a pair in about 1981 scaled up for some 10" drivers he had.
I never knew Lafayette marketed some.
