    I will try to get a pic up here linking to the dutch forum....once that succeeds it will make life easier...



    These are the xXx-heads (if you can see them )
    Most of the work is inside...
    I used different sizes of layers and saw particular shapes....
    The diamond tweeter got his own chamber.

    Veneer in Birds-Eye Maple (mind you not bookmatched but ONE piece meaning a lot of veneer is used and selected to acquire this!!!!)

    Leather Baffle with a Felt diffraction shield/frame into the surroundings (yes into instead of on-to, lot of extra work)

    Around 10 layers of Rustin Oil handrubbed and polished after each layer to get the woodpattern "alive".

    This gives an idea about the different woods (chaotic resonance instead of dominant resonance)

    Here a pic of the xXx-mids.
