Well for christmas I recently aquired a pair of very large dunlavy audio labs speakers. The hard part of them is done, the crossovers are built and the cabinets are built. These things are 6 ft tall tripolar hexagon speakers. I know tripolar is kinda weird. But I figure I have them I might as well use em. They were prototype speakers that they never finished and gave away. I guess they were originally designed to be used in a large ball room. But they nixed the idea. So therefore there are a set of only 2 sets in the world. :-D
Well my first step is i have to get them finished. Veneered, painted etc. But thats what I cant decide. I know what kind of finish I want but I dont know how to do it. I want them to be marble. Like a white marble to make them look like roman columns. Now I havnt found any veneer or vynil laminate that looks like white marble. So my next step is painting them.
Another idea my wife had, yes my wife. Was finish them in something that looks like brushed metal or stainless steal. So if anyone knows where I can get veneer like that, that would be awsome.
What do you think of my options. I have found out that its going to cost me almost $1000 total for all the parts. Thats mostly drivers and some nice binding posts and grills. Well I appreciate your input. Thanks!
