Hi warpspeed ~
I like the color!!!... it reminds us that DIY Open Baffles lend themselves nicely to color options... should we have an interest in that direction... it could also nicely meet the WAF to allow her (or the significant other who may not be particularly interested in these kinds of audio solutions) to choose the color that she feels best co-ordinates with the room aesthetics... I am not being funny here... I mean it.
I always confer with Deborah, who is a well-respected designer... I want her to be happy and feel comfortable with something like a plank of wood that will take a prominent place in the living room.
Nice work warpspeed!!! Thanks so much for sharing.
Incidently, what are the 10" FR drivers you are using? And does the sound come close to a "full-range" experience?
Admittedly, I am easily taken with "simple" designs for their economy of "means"... it appeals to me.
With Warmest Regards ~ Richard
