I'm building a pair of Nat P's for myself and they are coming along pretty well. I do have a few questions, however.
1. I plan to use these with bass bins and a sub, can I leave them sealed or should I still port them?
2. I searched for bass bins and found alot of talk but few who actually finished them. Has anyone beside speedle paired these with bass bins? If so how do you like them? I'm planning to use the RSS315-HF but I'm not sure if I should use one per side or two. Also how much volume would a sealed box need for either of these configurations?
3. I've veneered these with cherry, it looks very nice, but I've never worked with cherry before and I've heard it takes stain very unevenly. Has anyone used cherry with good results and if so how did you finish it? I like the look of it now and would just like to bring out the grain a bit and perhaps get it slightly darker. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the help and for all the great info I've found here.
