Uh-oh.

I knew I'd be found out sooner or later. But we'll let the 'elsewhere' pass, won't we? :-)

The 3/16" panel-front setback corresponds roughly to that on my stock 1.6's. The comparable rear dimension is about 5/16". I thought that once I get around to reframing my 1.6's I'd maintain the stock frame alignment, rounding the inner edges front and rear, bolting the panel to the frame, and, as you know, eliminating the side rails. Since I'll be going strutless, however (and with a different base design), I'm interested in the improvement in rigidity that might be imparted by a thicker frame. Hence the questions and the interest in whatever tradeoffs that might involve. Something I need to think about some more.

I suspect that your room (great photos) is "revealing" enough to let you hear anomalies if they're there, especially if the modded speakers had "closed down" the presentation in any way. From your comments, that doesn't appear to be the case, so congratulations.

Thanks for the feedback, and here's to continued good listening. Oh, and great kerf work on the rounded base.
