Well, I do sometimes have a sense of nostalgia for speakers and gear. I make guitars out of cigar boxes and cookie tins, and play some vintage guitar amps, so I can appreciate some lo-fi coloring of the sound in some situations. The one speaker that does work is nothing special on first listen...not a lot of low bass for a 12" woofer, and the highs are not very crisp. If I get the other speaker working, I'd like to spend a little time listening, but I would consider modding these in the future. The boxes are pretty sturdy and have a nice veneer.
I'll open the box up again soon and try to get some measurements...the outside of the box is 15x14x26. Looking at that photo, I think the mid speaker is 5", so that port must be almost that big, and the tube is not at all long...so I think you are right that it is tuned pretty high.
I will check and make sure the drivers are still working.
