Well I do know it would be more expensive now. But I seem to remember maybe 4 or 5 hundred for parts and material. It's probably been close to 20 years or so. Wayne discontinued the Theater 4 Pi's some time ago. It uses an Eminence Delta 15" woofer and Eminence compression tweeter and horn. Smooth and dynamic. Just what I crave. I used to blow the grills off the woofers from enthusiastic levels. They're just press fit in the recess. I don't indulge that so much these days.

The tower 2 Pi's might have been around 3 hundred or so for parts and materials. Really a bargain I'd imagine to many commercial speakers that would cost several times more. We used solid Ash wood stock over the MDF 1/4 top, sides and part of the baffle. WIth some 3/8 and 1/2 to create my version of an Art Deco style.
