I'm properly looking forward to your review!

Woohoo!!! That's great Matthew007!

Kudos on pushing forward after the listening test. Thanks for the "sound" update.

"Corrected oopsie, glued replacement and trimmed flush"
Good recovery.

Hi kramma, and welcome to the forum!
Enjoy your build!
If you follow the plans you will end up with a fine speaker. In regards to the tweeters, it is fine that they will be wired up as 16 ohms; your amp won't care.

This.

The angle between panel 7 and 8 is less than 90 degrees, which means that a 45degree angle will not allow proper fit and contact. Sorry.

Moving right along!

Great news, Shawn!

Good progress.

Fear not. Go, boldly, forward. And, yes dry fit.

But, of course!

Looking good, Shawn.
You're correct. They are not small.

Good progress so far!
