Mark was looking for something very special. He had an idea of what he wanted, but couldn't quite pull the trigger on his and Ann's veneer choice. That is, until he saw a batch of crotch mahogany on ebay. He emailed a link to us and we purchased it for use on his HT3 project.
Here is the result...
He also wanted aluminum faceplates for the ribbon tweeters. Unfortunately, the soonest we could get them would be July.
So we sanded the powder coating off of the faceplates on a pair of g2's. After we finally got down to the aluminum, we sanded them to 240, 320 and 400 grit, being careful to keep the scratch pattern perfectly straight. Then a light coat of lacquer and they were ready to go.
I may have a few more photos in a few days.
Happy listening Mark and Ann!
