A slightly different take on the Dreadnought

An update on this thread. My Dreadnought sits on carpet and always leaned a little bit. Well, I finally got around to doing something about it by adding aluminum outriggers with stainless steel spikes. It now sits perfectly level. The cap nuts are temporary, I have stainless steel knurled knobs arriving Monday.

So this is the thread where the idea for Speakon connectors for the SDA cable originated. I should have known Jessie was the originator. I also like the outriggers.
I am glad you updated the thread as I had not read it.

That going to look killer with the stainless steel knurled knobs and as usual very nice job Jesse.

The stainless steel knurled knobs came in. They were a bit too natural, so I polished them.

Fantastic work as usual. I'm skeptical about those old, old, speakers being worth the effort though.

I realized I made a mistake in my OP that needs to be corrected. The socket I used is the NL4MP-UC not the BAG version.

Good, I got the right one.
