Hi All

It's been 6 months in the making but the cabinets are (almost) finished.

down to the final Tung oil applications now, the cabinets have an internal 75L size so they are a little light in the bottom end but very acceptable, a smooth clean sound driven by Western Acoustics Time Machine 300b valve amplifier .... sweet!

Speakers are 35 year old 12" Tannoy Gold monitors (rubber surrounds) crossovers were recapped with Solen capacitors.

to all for their help and contributions with making these cabinets ..... many thanks.

Cheers

Andy

Beautiful work, Andy. Better quality than the surrounds that Tannoy sold.

Those who have never heard the Tannoy sound will not appreciate what you have. Well done.

Cheers

Beautiful work on the cabinets. And, how come everyone has the Gold drivers but me!

Because I'm insanely envious of both the speakers and 300B I'm going to find fault (petty huh ;)

It's 'Weston'... teehee :p

Happy listening!
