I bought two Boston Acoustics T1000 tower speakers back in the mid 80s. All four woffers rotted out, and one tweeter died. So I removed everything else, except the stuff to fill in / line the cabinet. I installed a Dayton 8" Reference Series woofer and covered up all of the other holes; this side has become the back. On what used to be the back, I installed a Goldwood 8" full-range driver. The back drivers are driven with one receiver, and the front speakers are driven with another receiver. Via each receiver's bass, treble, and volumes controls, I have much control over the sound. By running the back speakers flat and by adding a little bass and a bit more treble to the front speakers, I have achieved very good sound.

I am now planning my next DIY project. Peace.

Sounds like a very interesting idea. I am sure many of us would like to see photo's of your creation.
