Baltic birch is a thing of beauty! Must have taken a few hours to sand those boxes down. I have also built the Upgraded OkaraIIs, no doubt about it, spoiled me silly with the sound of this speaker. I posted some pics in the gallery, think they are on page 5 now. Just got done with two Poseidons, will post some more pics soon. I feel the Okaras sounded much better then the Revels too
Hi Scott
These are made from Finn ply which is even nicer than baltic birch. I like the stuff so much I'm building some furniture from it.
Your Okara's look great! I like the white baffle contrasted with the Light wood veneer. Looks like maple from here.
How are those Poseidons? How seamless are they integrating and how do you have them set up? I think George Short recommends stuffing the port and crossing over about 80hz.
I'm planning on mating the Okara's with stereo subs and was considering either the North Creek Poseidon, Rick Craigs 'Whomp', or the Adire Rava SE. So your input would be appreciated.
Wow! Very nice, it does look like an incredible amount of work.
Hi John,
Thanks for the compliment. I got the idea from a Finnish speaker manufacturer called Penaudio -
www.penaudio.fi They have a speaker called the Charisma that uses finn birch as a veneer.
cheers
