Conclusion:
Very fun project. I designed all aspects of the speakers and had a local woodworking shop put everything together for me. I would of done everything but arthritis prevents me from doing much detailed work anymore. The bass is very tight and deep. Mids are crazy good and the highs are very very pleasant. Could not have turned out better.
