Havent seen it but I'd be interested if you had a link, to size up the competition so to speak 🙂

We did a lot of research into the cabinet design, even as far as prototyping up a GRP mould, however the weight of the magnet in the Jordan driver is quite substantial which would result in tipping the speaker forward.
We may pursue this idea in the future and explore a bespoke machined rear speaker terminal to counteract the weight, but currently the speakers are hand turned using hardwood, by a very accomplished production turner in the UK.
Currently we supply them in Natural Oak and American Black Walnut [seen in the picture] and we are looking at another wood called Epee [I think that's the right spelling] as it is incredibly dense and has self damping properties.

oh i thought about that too. my idea was to use lead sheet on the bottom to prevent the jordan from tipping the fiberglass cabinet over. i also thought about drilling a small vent at the opposite end of the jordan and stuff ing a small 2" dia tube into it so act as some sort of pressure release valve.
SAB, you might have seen this.....
