Wayne,

What veneer and finish did you use on these cabinets? I'd like to try something similar.

They're bubinga with a thick coat of buffed lacquer. The lighter wood under the grilles is white ash.

No love for 3pi builds?

Wayne, whom we know did a great job, is it?

C'mon, let's see some pride you DIY'ers out there!

Wayne's 3 Pi's are the only ones I've ever seen or heard in person. I've seen a couple of pairs sold over the last two years on Audiogon. They are my favorite of all of his speakers though.

For those interested in the veneer on Wayne's 3 Pi's, here is a closer look.
