Although the completion took somewhat long time(4-6 weeks, what about other builders?),
I filled first and second section of cabinet with poly-fil I bought at WalMart, as Dave recommended.
BTW, how long does it usually take 1801b to be broken-in? I feel bass is lacking after 3 days, but I sense it's getting better day after day.
Its a ported cabinet so any stuffing in the center volume of the cabinet will destroy the bass tuning.
Your neighbor does very nice work. If the internal joints of this cabinet equal the outside appearance, those cabinets are excellent - and very cheap too! The 1" MDF on the front is slightly thinner than what I build, but should be fine.
As far as I understand, the front and rear panel are 3/4" thick.
Dave, what about using baltic birch instead of MDF?
Doug,Can your friend build more cabinets? There's a person who just visited my house who is going to order a pair and might want to contact your cabinet builder. Al
