Front panel removed

The speaker is on it's side in this shot, - the front panel, and a pair of pods have been removed to expose the port mounting detail. The brace is rebated into all four sides and when the front is glued on, will be quite strong, supporting the rear panel as well as the ports. The Smoothing rings fitted to the port intakes have since been upgraded to the larger "donut" style, providing a 13mm flare.
