hey this Building Box sounds like a great place. $2bucks to cut? Wow! Where it is?
My Home Depot and prolly other home centers sell pine for tabletops glued up into 18 and 24X36" and 72" long boards. Exackly the size of Theatre 4 cabinets. 1 24X72 and 2 18X72 make a single speaker with just 4 crosscuts. Total cost in Central Ohio about $90 for 2 speaks. Nail'm with #6 finish nails, glue'm with PL400 Deck adhesive, brace'm with poplar 1X4 and finish'm with Watco Danish Oil.
You could also use dimensional (1X) pine for the Studio Ones and Two's with a minimum of fuss and cutting. Nails and urethane construction adhesive (not to be confused with the heinous Gorilla Glue) is all it takes.

Creating is more like performing than listening
