Recently started Anthology Build-- pics inside!

[kylemcg]

Hi all! I just recently delved into the DIY audio world looking to build some nice tower speakers for my apartment at school. I settled on the Anthology speakers. Will update as I assemble the cabinets. I am probably going to take them to a family member who does custom automotive painting to give them a nice piano black finish.

Here are some photos of the parts prior to final assembly

Let me know what y'all think but please be kind this is the first real woodworking project I have ever done!

Hi Kyle,

I can't see any pictures but I think you'll enjoy the Anthology's a lot. They're one of my favorite designs that Curt and I came up with.

Jim,

Fixed the photos. Turns out the photo option here doesn't work with imgur so I just added the link. Can't wait to actually hear these play.

Update: finished internal assembly with pyramid poly foam and cotton/poly batting. I opted to use 2 window pan braces to allow a more open internal cavity if I want to stuff with raw cotton or poly at the end of construction.

Hello All;
I'm looking to start my Anthology build this fall and i have a question.......

The cabinet stuffing calls for 2" foam.....I currently have 1/2 a bale of ROXUL Safe N Sound and I would like to use that up if I could. The batts are about 3" thick. Do you suggest that I trim them down to 2" thick or cover less surface with the 3"?

Thanks

Juju

3 inch will be fine for the woofer compartment. Careful to not crowd the back of the drivers.
