A couple of pictures:
I'm afraid my photographic skills, such as they are, don't do them justice! The veneer is ziricote (no, I'd never heard of it -- it comes from central America, apparently) with a piano gloss lacquer. The front baffles are in the same veneer, but stained to an almost-black colour which blends well with the drivers.
So far I've just plonked them roughly in the right place and am keeping them fed with a continuous diet of music to run them in a bit. Then I'll try to set them up properly. Even so, they are already sounding superb -- even better than I had remembered.
