Wayne was kind enough to send me the plans for the 2pi towers in advance of the kit. In examining them he recommends searching the forum for build tips. I've built Speakers before, sooo.

Has anyone used the Home Depot " Ultra Touch Denim insulation " inside of a Pi kit? These speakers are to be built for a young person, and I don't want to worry about the Fiberglass in them being accessible through the vent to curious hands.

What manner of attachment to the sidewall and baffle is recommended? can I just throw a staple in there every so often? I've always used other types of insulation in the past, and used contact cement for foam and felt type, or relied on the poly type being teased and stuffed into the cavity as in a TL.

No idea if these are going to end up being Veneered, or the ply edge-treated in some form or fashion. Haven't gotten that far yet, Stay tuned!

John
