What would be the best box for a lone Emi Basslite C2515, either commercial or home built? Or do I need a HF horn as well? I have it in a TL-606 now and it sounds real good, but I'm always interested in something better (and lighter if possible.) Thanks.

The Tl-606 is the smallest box I would think about putting the C2515 in unless you want craploads of bloom.

Making the TL606 lighter is easy though; remove the shelf port, use 1/2" plywood, use tube ports and brace it extensively. I'd recommend Arauco plywood 15/32 from Lowes. Works great.

It would do very well in a fEarful style box, as well, but you'd want to lower the tuning a bit and the crossover would have to be much different.
