Hi Troels,
Two months ago I finished a pair of Nomex 164 mkII for my friend. He
wanted natural wood finish so I made it similar to your SB MTM, birch
plywood with solid oak pieces. Additionaly I used bitumen pads for back,
top and side panels. Finish is hard wax oil (counter top grade).
Sound is amazing, especially strings. Same for all your construction I
made (Peerless HDS134, DTQWT mkIII flat, center 641). These speakers are
perfect in price/performance ratio. The only drawback is that the nomex
drivers cannot be ordered with kit. I ordered in Dutch first with very
bad experience (no answers, no drivers, no money back...) few years ago
it was with no problem. I recommend to read current reviews of sellers
first than order...
By the time being I am working on white high gloss lacquer on DTQWTs
which I build two years ago - really time consuming work, size is
enormous. I will send report when finished.
Thank you for hard work and contribution to DIY community, your speakers
make people happier :)
Best regards, Kamil, Czech Republic
