Wot no turntable?

The wood is burly maple. No turntable because I've been there, done that, and don't need another rabbit hole. 

Looks nice. I know you put a lot of thought and hard work into it. Enjoy!

Very nice! I just left you a comment re: speaker positioning. 

I was wondering about the front wall as well. Perhaps some DIY sound panels (compressed fiberglass panels covered with material of your choice). You can set them down wherever you wish for demo prior to affixing. I keep two of them in my room loose to change if I wish. 

I'm actually driving across the country watching videos about REW software and hoe to build those panels. Appreciate the suggestion, Doug!
