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. Bill Baker teklabs!reed!wab
