Have you ever placed an unopened, but wire removed, bottle of champagne on the top a speaker and waited for it to pop. Great fun.

I run a couple of big (3 speaker) sub woofers. Genelec. They are ugly as sin and I might copy your design and clad them in oak. Maybe 2" thick.
Very nice work.

I had the balls to ask him if I could come and listen. They were stunning! I have a pair of early Spendor BC1's. I must turn them upside down again. They've not been connected to an amp in over 3 years.
Sorry, Sploo...nice work, BTW.

These days folks are also making stuff colloquially called Epoxycrete for some demanding applications.
