It's supposed to do that, the tex in DuraTex stands for 'texture'.

+1 The texture hides flaws and like a serrated knife, only the bumps show wear, making the cabinet look new longer. If you want smooth, hit up your local paint store.

Sine post some info about the grills,my SLA Pro's are ready for bondoing and painting,my crossover components and tweet's were shipped out today from Leland.Are you doing the whole filter or just placing the 4 ohm resistor in place ?

I'm doing the filter specced in the plans. I'm waiting on the 4 ohm resistors that were backordered. will update about the grilles when I get back from lunch.

Sweet.I just used my SLA Pro's for the first time tonight along with 2 T-39's and these things are loud as hell.Medium sized venue,no V Plate,the most convenient place to put them (T 39's) was right in front of the stage which was only about 3 feet high,facing the stage.

you went with the dayton as well?

Yep,i went with the Daytons.To be honest,i have been scared to crank them and give them the 400 or so watts that i have been told they can take,i think it would take a pair of v plated corner loaded T39's to really keep up with them.I think my next builds this fall will be 4 SLA Pro's and 4 slim T 39's,BP102 loaded,all to be painted with white Duratex to be rented out for weddings.

short youtube vid of the setup. very low volume, sounds very clean though in real life.

I like that look. Very "monolithic looking". Great job!
