The more I think about it the less I’m inclined to sell them actually - sorry for the carrot! You could make a pair yourself...

I just used the plans for the enclosure, built them from solid 20mm oak. I’m thinking about taking the drivers out and building the floor standing versions, though not sure how much more bass I’ll get just from a bigger box.

I have a version of these : http://www.geocities.ws/rbrines1/Pages/FT-1600_MkII/Main.html

Fostex FE167e drivers - no longer available though....

Have you looked at back loaded horn designs?
For example:

BLH are interesting, though the simplicity of the Fonken mkII floorstanders is very appealing. Could probably knock them up in a day.
