I agree completely that recessed drivers look better, and recessing them (especially the tweeter) also eliminates one source of distortion. But for the majority of people who don't have the tools to do the recesses, an otherwise good speaker with surface mounted drivers is better than a comparably priced speaker from a big box store with recessed drivers.

I'm building the prototypes with surface mounted drivers, but I sized the cutouts so I can easily go back after completion and do the recesses with a 1/2" rabbet bit. At some point after somebody else within driving distance has built a pair I plan to recess the drivers in mine and we'll compare the two.
