But buying the Madisound cabinets is a good way to start too...that's exactly what I did when I made a different project...
Then I realized building the cabinets wasn't that hard.
There's a ton of people willing to help if you decide to try your own...Good luck!
I wrote to SpeakerCity and they wrote back with the price of the L-6 cabinets at $65 each. I'm not sure if that includes the binding post, grill, etc.; they were very terse in their responses. Madisound wants $82.50 each for theirs, but there seems to be more finish options.

I'm almost tempted to just build the cabinets myself, but I'm hesitant only because there's no cutting diagrams or assembly instructions. I see Ed's measurements above, but I have gone solely on measurements before and messed things up. :-) Plus, where do you find the port tube, how do you build the grills, where do you get grill cloth, how do you attach the grills, etc etc. I'm a good direction-follower, but not a good fabricator, and there are too many unanswered questions for me to venture into it yet. ;-) One would think that with so many people who have built these, there would be some detailed bill of materials, cutting diagrams and assembly drawings/instructions out there somewhere.

Thanks!
