Tannoy Horn enclosures. Despite their 'namings' are all fairly Poor sounding ... True. Flat one note bass.
Avoid them entirely.
Even a simple Reflex box sounds far better.

Westies are decent to good.. but require a Large amount of work /pain to fabricate.. And IMO at least, are not nearly as good as their 'folklore' claims. But No owner is willing to admit to that :-)

Jensen Imperial enclosures work / sound a LOT better than the Tannoy enclosures. Easier to build as well (google for drawings)
BUT they are BIG boxes... which again require a Large room, to both fit into And sound good in.
