The woven cone on the L6-8R has exceptional midrange and vocal clarity.  The smooth response and gradual roll off on the top ends might allow for simple slope crossovers or even no crossover on the woofer.  The high Qts provides form manydifferent box alignments, from small sealed to large vented.

• Rigid woven kevlar cone with phase plug
• Long throw linear excursion design
• Hi-Vi Symmetric Motor Drive (SMD) technology

Sample Box Suggestions:

• Sealed box of 0.25 cubic feet (7 liters) for a 3dB down of 83Hz and 6dB down of 66Hz
• Sealed box of 0.5 cubic feet (14 liters) for a 3dB down of 80Hz and 6dB down of 59Hz

The larger sealed box has a more gradual roll off on the low end. 

For two woofers you double the volume.

• Vented box of 0.5 cubic feet with a 2” diameter vent by 4” long for a 3dB down of 50Hz.
• Vented box of 0.65 cubic feet with a 2” diameter vent by 4” long for a 3dB down of 45Hz.
• Vented box of 0.85 cubic feet with a 2” diameter vent by 3.5” long for a 3dB down of 40Hz.

For two woofers vented, double the volume and double the ports. For two woofers vented with single port:

• Two woofers in 1 cubic foot, 4” diameter vent by 7.75” long.
• Two woofers in 1.3 cubic foot, 4” diameter vent by 7” long.
• Two woofers in 1.75 cubic foot, 4” diameter vent by 6.5” long.

This woofer has a 170mm flange diameter like the now discontinued P17WJ00 woofers, it should make for a good replacement.
