Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   As a corona-project i bought myself two JBL 4530's loaded with Beyma 15g300. then I swapped two JBL 075's for P-audio bm-d450's on a 60/40 horn. 
Then i sanded and sanded and sanded and used a light oak finish on the 4530's, and build a simple cabinet for the horns. still hunting for used corners but anybody got an idea for ageing the wood? i was thinking about making a paste of charcoal and rubbing it in before applying the oak finish. also still have to make some gliders under the cabinet with the right height for the distance between the drivers. going to be crossed high.
