Thank you gents for the accolades! For constructors, here's the naked grill frames I made using good old quarter inch mdf. I had to account for the thickness of the material in cutting the grills to fit in the recess of the speaker inset. I made an inverse pattern for the curved portion of the inset of the speaker front. Then I tapered the sides of the grill frame to match the one eighth inch thick strips of the sides of the speaker inset.
Then I had to cut a recess for the woofers into the back of the grills to keep the grills flat to the inset face. Had to eyeball with the router for that trick.
Pa Kettle would have entrusted his handy helpers Deerduck and Crowbar Injun characters for all this prep. But I persevered myself. Hence the length of time getting this last piece of the puzzle done.
These speakers are just about the best and cost effective way to get into the higher realm of audio nirvana that I've experienced. Thanks to Wayne and his accumulated skills as a speaker designer.
