The wood is actually from the same stock that we got for the original gigantic speakers. Most of it was cut on my back patio. Only the speaker holes were cut at Dave's house using a drill-press and hole saw.
Pictured above is one half of a speaker pair. You can see the two sitting side by side (prior to final build) in the picture gallery on the back porch after I had applied the stain to the wood.
They are intended to operate as main speakers (for an as-yet-to-be-determined individual or individuals). These will not be a permanent fixture in my house even though I do appreciate them. More details on this later...
As far as when the insanity stops, just wait and see. We're already designing the next ones to complement a specific piece of audio equipment. Seriously, what's the fun in building cool stuff if it doesn't cross the line?
You forgot to close the lj user quotation, so the rest of your comment doesn't show here. Gmail doesn't interpret HTML automatically, so I got to see the rest of it.

Where are you going to put them?
Where did you get the wood cut at?

Ah, I thought these were compliments to the existing ginormous speaker project.
Does it have flashy LEDs yet? Huh?

I'm glad I got to view these. _gulliver_ and I were chatting and he told me about that idea. They turned out well.
