Thanks! Can't have too many sets of measured specs, though due to a variety of things they can be pretty far off from yours as me, Lynn and others posted about in the last few pages of this thread and if you search it for Altec, a lot of other good info: Beyond the Ariel - diyAudio
Bottom line, if you don't measure yours, then it's a 'crap shoot' as to what you'll wind up with frequency response wise, leaving only stuffing density, empirically tuning the vent [if applicable] by either ear to whatever sounds best overall to you or to the driver's actual Fs [a good plan if coupled to a high output impedance amp].
This is why I recommend/spec an acoustically large cab to ensure there's enough acoustic efficiency unless the specs are so far off as to need re-building or flat out replacing since it's a lot easier to tune, or worst case, reduce internal volume [Vb] as required with scrap materials/whatever that doesn't rattle.
