	Is there any reason that speaker cabinets are made out of
wood exclusively?  Someone once told me it was due to the special
resonance quality of wood, but I'm not sure if that's right.  Could
speaker cabinets be made out of stone?  My grandfather is a rocksmith
and interested in the prospect of such a project, but I don't want
to committ my money unless I know that the speakers won't sound
odd.  I know this sounds weird, but it's not as bad as putting
mayonnaise on woofers.
