    That's only what she tells you. The truth is she gave them to Goodwill because you won't be needing them again anyway. Besides, she said they took up too much space in the freezer.

    Thanks man.
    It'll have to do for now. Really want to get our house built so I can get the 7 seat theater built and the dedicated listening room built. But that won't happen until my daughter moves out.

    Feet are the Dayton Audio DSS4-BC black chrome speaker spikes.
    http://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-dss4-bc-black-chrome-speaker-spike-set-4-pcs--240-715

    The design was an evolution from the first set of racks I built out of zebrawood and ambrosia (spalted) maple which is now the home for the HT sytem.
    It can be seen here along with a rough build log.
