Looky WIJG - 4401s and L20T3s

[Fred Sanford]

L20T3-

The one mismatched veneer side is cherry. The woodworking friend has offered a few options as far as durable & economical ways to plug holes & then re-finish or re-cover the boxes. They may actually end up with all-black counter-top laminate. I'll have to take some careful measurements, but I may actually have enough blue Zilch-cloth to re-do the 4333As, 4401s and these L20T3s. If not, I have more brown or can source some others. Haven't done much research on corner protectors/reinforcement yet.

They've been bounced around the house with various systems (Yamaha RXV-1000 receiver, Sonic Impact T-Amp, Denon PMA-920 integrated amp, Nakamichi RE-1 receiver) and done well as long as they've got some space behind them for the rear ports. I am kind of kicking myself for letting the 4408As go, but that $ funded something else fun, so...:dont-know

OK, some progress on the L20T3s. The finish when I got them was an assortment of original-but-sanded...rosewood? (backs), poorly-applied/sanded/finished oak (fronts & 7 of the sides) and obviously mismatched and un-finished cherry (one side). Some of the original pics:

It turned out that my friend had some very pretty leftover cherry veneer in enough quantity that we could completely re-do these cabs, then he stained & sealed them- quick first look, better pictures to follow after re-assembly. Now I'll have to be more choosy with grille cloth color, I think...

ahh..someone else makes knots in their speaker wires , I usually do for the neg on wire where polarity is vague.

I do make knots, but those older shots are from Fourwheels' house. Often to designate right vs. left at the amp side of things, if I don't label.
