I used to have this Sunn cabinet which would be perfect for you. Chris Pappas has it now, well I hope he still has it!

LOL!

Actually I use this with the Maggies these days:

Image

Dimensions: 12" W x 12" D x 12-1/2" H
Frequency Response: 14Hz — 200Hz
Driver Complement: One 8" long-throw polymer subwoofer coupled to two 8" pressure-driven infrasonic bass radiators.
Amplifier: 1250 watts Digitally-Coupled Class D
Low-Level High Pass: 40Hz — 150Hz (variable) 12dB per octave
Speaker Level High Pass: 80 Hz (6 dB per octave)
Low Level Low Pass Filter: 24dB/octave continuously adjustable variable (40 —150 Hz) plus Unfiltered LFE direct coupled input.
Phase Control: 0 degrees — 180 degrees (continuously variable)
Finish: Piano gloss black
Weight: 38 lbs.

My Aragon 24K preamp has two sets of outputs, one goes to my Aragon 2004 into the Maggies fullrange, and the other output goes to the SC II with the LP filter set to 40 Hz letting the Maggies roll off naturally, sounds great! Image

I have a 68 Sunn 215 cabinet, but it's in kind of rough shape. It was my first cabinet, and until then I had only used combos.
Part of the inner baffle is cut out to fit in Eminence Delta Pro 15s (giant magnets) and there are holes drilled in the back as vents. Shipping would also be insane. There's also a long, worn-out hole-ish spot in the grill cloth, and it doesn't have the original jackplate on the back. There are also some wood screws sunk into the sides for some reason.
If you really want it, it's certainly available. Otherwise, I'm going to make it into a laundry hamper or something. Maybe a liquor cabinet or a soapbox derby car.
