I'm about to start my first DIY home audio project with the sealed floor standing version of Krutke's BAMTM. I've already got most of the parts but I'm a little fuzzy on some of the basic speaker building details.
I will be using some mat dampening material on the inside walls with some acousti-stuf in the bottom half as well. How do you attach your dampening materials to the inside of the enclosure and at what point of the build do you attach it?
The guy I'm building them for wants a high gloss black finish so I'll be doing some wetsanding and I'm not planning on using a removable baffle. Does that go against the norm? Should I cut the speaker/terminal cup openings before the finishing stage to make sure they're right before I invest time in the finishing, or should I do all the finishing before I cut the holes and hope I don't mess them up?
