Thanks for all of the responses. Mine have always been bass shy...comparatively speaking, to other speakers I've owned. I've had these all my life and replaced them when I was younger, with some big Infinity's. I stored them away, because they had sentimental value, and I knew they were historical. My reading about single drivers, reminded me of the wonderful midrange they used to have.

I was hoping I could create something with extended response that has that gave me that sweet midband, with extended response for excessively loud classical and progressive rock. I could just build a sub, but I thought it would be best to go as low as pracicable, with the main spkrs.

I have always wondered about the oversized "port" on the front, which seems, not to emminate bass, but just be a window to hear internal box reflections. (The boxes are relatively thin and rather resonant).

I am aware of their value, but I was hoping to keep the original enclosures and build something to listen to. Something that combined the attributes of the RCAs and my Infinitys(SM-152, 15" cheapish ported boxes).

I have seen mention, by RCA fan, I think, of a backloaded horn, that Olsen designed, just for the LC1As. Or did I misunderstand?
