OK I am sold! I will be ordering a 2 Pi kit next week. But...which one is best for me? I'm just trying to make up my mind which is superior...the standard 2 Pi or the Tower 2 Pi. I will initially be using my Zen tube amp in relatively small rooms with the corners available for placement. Quite frankly, the Tower version is more appealing. The drivers are at ear level...a good thing. Your specs show the Tower's frequency response going slightly lower...a good thing. It would be easy to eliminate the rear terminal cup and run the speaker wire directly through the "port".

1) Is there a performance trade-off or enhancement with either model?
2) Do you prefer plywood to MDF for construction?
3) Will I ever become as smart as you?

In your final estimation, which version do you recommend and why?

Many thanks,
Bob

As for the wood, it's really "six one way and half a dozen the other." I prefer MDF and particle board because there is no chance foir voids to develop. It's not so much the void I'm worried about as the debris in the void, which will buzz. Then again, high quality plywoods are usually pretty good and as long as there are no voids, it makes a very nice speaker that is more durable than MDF.
