Cork-lined front baffle, Finland birch plywood, rear panel is particleboard. Finished with about a bazillion coats of tung oil and paste-wax-buffed to a shine.

FWIW: I love the utilitarian, mid-century modern look of birch plywood. I'll take it over fancy-schmantzy veneers any day. Wink

So the tweaking continues...
So, I swapped the .51mH, 14ga coil for a .60mh, 20ga coil I had on hand. It's getting closer to what I remember the older pair of these I made years ago sounded like? Why is that? What is happening here?

Also, added more polyfil just before this swap and that seemed to help a little too... but minimally so...

What is the resistor on the tweeter doing btw? I have a 20ohm there... is that the correct value?
