Why are there so many wooden box speakers out there?

@rick2000...an interesting variant on 'playing a guitar', but....*shrug*

On one hand, I've got one of those SAE parametric eqs' myself in the 'shop' system.  An adjunct to the receivers' tone controls, allows to zero in on the details of which the devils create....*G*

@fisher_400 , yeah, damn few injection enclosures pass muster...usually too light, too thin, too small with drivers to match...  Not saying small isn't beautiful...nice bookshelf stuff out there but typically of a 'practical' size driven by a given frequency range...

I'm sidestepping the whole enclosure issue basically, because I can.  Not that a box of any design wouldn't work, I just rather not go there.

Minimalist at heart, and generally stuck with smaller spaces.  And the challenge of doing so beckons. *S*

Olsen study used a miniscule 7/8" speaker. Mounting larger speakers would be more problematic and require proportionately much larger cabinets. Would be interesting to see some research on larger spherical speakers though.

Happy Holidays!

I LOVE WOODEN BOX SPEAKERS.  LONG LIVE THE KING

There are a handful of users on here that I would love to ignore, and never see another post or reply from them, ever.

Kenjit is one of them.

I think it has to do with the natural tone from wood, why is it most musical instrument are made from wood and sound so great.
