Hotcrazyfruit Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Hi all, Iv got an old pair of some Energy ESM-2's from 1988. I recently replaced the foam on them, only to have the voice coils on them go not long after. Since I cant find the brochure or manual online, Ill tell you as much as I can about them. They have an 8" woofer, the speakers are rated for 100w RMS, I imagine the crossover can't handle much more. Cut out diameter is 7 1/8" with the outside edge of the cut out being 8 1/4". Box dimensions are 23 3/8 x 10 1/2 x 11 1/8 (H,W,D), outer dimensions. 3/4" MDF. Box volume is 1894 cu in. It has a 2" diameter port located beneath the woofer, it is 3 1/8" deep. The box contains a wool stuffing, this makes the box "appear" bigger to the woofer, correct? x-over is 2000hz. Could anyone shed some light on some good 8's out there? I looked into Dayton audio, but the reference series are too big for the hole and I don't have the tools to make it any bigger. I'd also like to stay away from paper cones. I'd like to keep it under 100 CAD per woofer. Cheers, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
