DIY Speaker Cabinets

Hi,

I've currently got a pair of Mordaunt Short MS 30i speakers. The cabinets are really banged up and I'd like to know how I could go about getting replacement cabinets. I'd like to use real wood if possible.

Does anyone have any websites I can purchase some cabinets/materials or any other general information that I can use?

Thanks,
Matt

Madisound.com has a range of enclosures. They are good quality.

I disagree with Barry about how exact a copy of the original enclosure must be. Changes might be for the better. However, I do agree with him that refinishing the existing enclosures would probably be the best approach.

Barry...With returns of the respect...loudspeaker enclosures are not the perfect result of "inteligent design" but rather represent subjective goals of the designer. Most obviously there is a range of opinion regarding the best Q value. Variation of stuffing density will offset enclosure volume changes. Extra wall bracing/damping is always helpful. And most, if not all, commercial products are compromised to some extent by cost and other marketing considerations.
