Wow, nice joints! Very tight. Are you going to allow the laminations to show on the corners? (I think that would look great!)
(found the amp in your basement?? how mysterious!)

Definitely, that's why I don't want to veneer it.

Well, regarding the DAP near the magnet - remember that the drive heads are only a couple micrometers away from the spinning disk. I have heard that for a bit to be flipped, the applied field strength must be quite high - in the several gauss range, and it's only the close range of the head that makes it possible. Anecdotal, but I've never had any problems with hard drives used near magnets. Obviously it's still smart to keep them apart, but I wouldn't be too worried about it.
Beautiful looking speakers. I'm impressed, and they're really making me want to build some of my own with virtually nothing but hand tools.
