Probably it's better to first fit the drivers and see how it plays over a wide range of music.

If it produces good music...leave it as it is. IMO

The chamfer cannot be reversed I guess...once done.

Sorry,

You are absolutely right. I thought it was implicit. Should have been explicit.

an to extend that more broadly, don’t try to solve problem until you know it exists. The value of chamfering if any, will show up only at higher output levels..

The difference between a Solstice and an Equinox is here - makes for interesting reading - thanks to weather.gov



Winter Solstice is summer time in the Southern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemisphere ( in India ) Dec 21 will be the shortest day and longest night...

and conversely

Summer Solstice is the longest day and shortest night for us Northers hemisphere inhabitants - June 20 approx !

BTW - what happened to this amazing build ?

very understandable...

take care and stay safe !

social distancing and wearing a mask and not being in crowded areas are of paramount importance now.

Update:
I have completed the assembly part and the enclosures are ready for paint job. Today I have applied Sanding Sealer, it will be sanded with 320 grit sand paper then primer will be applied





After Primer I will test the enclosures with drivers fitted with them. Then it will be Final color.

Yes it will be removable. So today's update. I have applied 1st coat of Primer


Now waiting for primer to dry before i flip it so that i can apply the same on top side (as you can see the enclosures are standing on Top Side)

 

[oldmonk]

They indeed look brilliant. I so looking forward to the final output

 

[sadik]

Update:

The Second coat of Primer is complete. I have applied some wood filler as a final touch-up at some places.


Wood Filler can be seen in below photo. It is just a touchup for some scratches before i start with applying final paint.
