Great thread:-)
even my lowly Lyle has real Rosewood sides.
i grew up in indentured servitude to a gunsmith and cabinet maker. His mentor Earl Mcrillis of Norwalk OH had one of the largest wood block sample collections in the world. My dad had his as well and often before dinner we had to ID samples . Earl’s collection went to the Smithsonian on his passing as I recall.
market prices certainly drive speaker pricing, just helped a buddy choose veneer for his Vandersteen Quattro. Fun
