Chris,
Sorry for the delay... I've been busy with remodeling the new house, moving, and tons of other things to do. Finally…with the help of my wife, we were able to lug this big heavy beast out of the crate and upstairs into my audio room.
Here is my first impression:
These beautiful and unique enclosures are constructed with two layers of ¾” MDF with the internal volume of 88.5L or 3.13 cubic feet and weight around 125 lbs.
The enclosures are then veneered with Makore wood and Birds-eye maple that blend in perfectly with my Onix Reference 1 speaker. The Makore wood have a stunning exotic look with shimmering rain drop effect that will match well with the Onix Rocket speakers (next items on my shopping list for my HT system). The craftsmanship is topnotch and I would rank it right up there with the Onix Ref1 quality.
All I’m going to say for the moment is that my wife & I are in amazement at this magnificent piece of furniture. I can’t wait to install the stainless steel spikes and the Shiva driver this weekend and see if we can shake the house.
One more thing, I just want to thank Chris, a fine gentleman, for giving me the opportunity to own this magnificent looking sub. I would not hesitate giving him my highest recommendation. To me, this hobby is not all about audio, but the opportunity to meet nice people, exchange knowledge and many other things and rewarded with the friendship that I had made all over the place with the finest people like Chris and many others.
Thank you very much again Chris.
