I'm a ProAc owner, and it seems many people who purchase these speakers favor English yew. My Tablette 50 Signatures are ebony and my Response 1SCs are rosewood.

However, I've been contemplating building the ProAc 2.5 DIY project and if I do I'll most likely be using a very "non-manufacturer" finish such as padauk veneer which is a beautiful orange with undulating waves and streaks of red. I've also thought of trying bubinga, teak, Hawaiian Koa and chakte viga.
