We are allowed to explore other materials
if we desire. This assignment is pretty open as far as materials and
box design.


I'd always figured that granite enclosures would rule audio-wise - they'd
look nice too. All other things being equal, I suspect that the higher the
density of the enclosure material, the better the sound quality.


Mebbe but it's not so much the density as the damping.


Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't a higher density material cause the
damping to improve? (Lead speakers anyone?)
