Critique My Cabinet Design?

[Wayman]

When I was thinking of matching surrounds for the Ardents, I wondered if, since I moved to a smaller place, if I could make the cabinet "appear" to be a bit smaller without changing the DNA of Jon's Classic design?

Also, just doing the mock-up has me wondering if all the extra work is worth it?

Any thoughts?

Looks good.

Looks good.

Thanks!

Looks like a mini-ardent! Ardent surrounds are just the type of overkill I like to see!

Drat, you beat me to it!

Looks good so far ......

Well since it seems like a collective thumbs-up, so I will try a cabinet for an RS180 & a C2 23-6 that has been on my self for too long.

BTW, seems that if I hold my phone vertically (you will of course notice that I am no photographer) the pic will load sideways?

Anyway, Thanks for the feedback!

Cheers, Wayne

Looks good. I've always been a fan of "different" cabinets.

My only concern is I don't see any holes for the drivers, that could pose a problem.

Ha ha, that's what happens when you don't have drawings!

Looks very cool!

Thanks TEK,

I will have to work on driver-specific proportions. A small cabinet will also be an opportunity to work on my veneering skills.

Looks very cool!
