I haven't but... I feel like this enclosure could look so good if only it had some curves. I've always thought it looked too boxy, maybe that's just me

I have and it is very good. At least the way I heard it set up in the near field : FE108(original sigma) with +200 watt Accuphase mono block-amps. Not sure if it was the "super swan" version. I believe that the pair I heard was made by Fostex Japan. Very natural and surprisingly impactful and immediate if a tad bit raw. Not smoothed over sounding (dull) like a A7 gen. 3.

Never got around to building it, but one day....as it still seems to be relevant/viable.
