A pair of open baffle speakers based on Joseph Esmilla's design.
I'm starting with a pair of 6" vintage Pyle drivers with whizzer cones, but they will be adaptable to more ambitious drivers if I like the result. Joseph's design can be made from a single sheet of Baltic birch ply, but, as usual, they will have neither the beauty, nor the integrity of Stace's build.
But I'm moving slowly as my tube gear is in boxes and I'm plumbing the world of M

If - you build a big enough OB to do deep bass ....

Tim;
It is true that if you build a large enough baffle that there will be prodigious bass however, you will lose imaging. Like most everything in life it's a series of trade offs or compromises if you will.
I have some Eminence CW 1526 15" at frame woofers laying around. Maybe we'll go after more bass with those.
Stay calm and return fire.
