I basically used a belt sander and the only issue is that the top is slightly uneven. I bought the cabinet 15 years ago as unassembled and unfinished furniture.

Are those your Super-V speakers in the picture? What are the two cabinets in the center?

Hi HAL.
The speakers on each side of the ugly ones are GR Research V1 not the Super-V.
The mid and high section including the x-over are seperate as per my idea and design
and I think it look nice.
The center ugly one are U frame configuration with two bottom 12'' Eminence Acoustinateur
driven by GR Research SA-1 (240Watts) plate amplifier
and top is a 8'' extended range Audio Nirvana (Common sense audio).
Built by myself with a Black & Decker jigsaw with double wall three quarter inch mdf.
Some equivalent high density foam (Equivalet to GR Research Norez).
Hope this is what you were looking for ? ? ?

Guy 13,
Yes, that was what I was asking. Remember the V1 build from awhile back.

Hi all.
Another DIY speaker project is the restauration of my (Now in heaven) sister in law's
vintage Pioneer (Big bookselve) speakers.
The planet Vietnam humidity and Karaoke abuse from my wife
made those ready for a good overall repair.
Some mdf parts were rotten and the driver's coils burnt.
Sooo.... My cabinet maker will redo the exterior with selfadhesive vinyl,
make a new back and front plate and other stuff as we go along in the repairs.
I love the grills, so I will keep them.
All the drivers (8'' woofers and 3.5'' tweeters will be replaced when back in
North Pole or Canada (Same for me).
Here are a few pictures before and the pictures '' After '' will be posted in a few weeks.

Hi all.
All the floor standing speakers that I build or got built
are on rollers (Casters) that's because they are heavy
(And I am only 5'5'' - 132 Lbs) so when setting up for
evaluation I often move them around,
it's much easier on casters.
After final sut-up, I use my heavy duty (Made in Vietnam) spikes.
