Back on track...
The two towers standing on their own. Still a lot of sanding to do on both towers but it's starting to look like something real. ![]() Another feature visible in this picture is that I left the ability to rotate the speaker in any direction wanted. The speaker is almost turned 180 degrees ![]() That should help with toe in/out experiments. In some more detail: ![]() (don't mind the missing bolts on the base, they're there ![]() Last edited by wesayso; 12th September 2013 at 12:25 PM. |

Are you going Nude plywood + stain or will you attempt to veneer?

I like that rotation feature. Is that a commercial product or custom design?

I'm going for nude plywood with stain covered with clear polyurethane. Plywood is hard to stain though. Takes some effort, hope my tests have shown me how to do it right.
That rotational base is water yet cut from my drawings, so I guess that makes it custom design. I wanted to be able to play with positioning without rotating the feet. It's not equipped for changes on the fly with the bolts facing downward but I'll manage. |

The other challenge is getting the burn marks out. I ended up using a dark stain on my TT plinth in order to hide the burns. |

So I went with a dark wood filler ![]() I'm going for a dark stain as well. The burn marks are all gone though after a week of sanding, pfew.... I do hope to get an even finish. My girlfriend wanted black speakers, they are supposed to be black she said. But I just couldn't do that after seeing how nice the ply looked. It will be a dark brown color, to go with our brasil brown oak floor. I hope to anodize the aluminum black. The feet will be left bare aluminum for now and polished. The biggest challenge will be to clean the garage prior to paint. You don't want to know how much saw dust is everywhere. I'm considering building a tent from plastic for the paint job.

![]() Hopefully, positioning them will be a one time deal. Last edited by wesayso; 13th September 2013 at 10:08 AM. |

nice project, pure overkill
![]() ![]() Are You going to taper the line in any way (power, frequency)? How are You going to equalize them? Passively, line level, analog, digital?
