Title: Well I figured I should announce my cab eventually...

Well, I dont know if this is much of an announcement, since its pretty much done, but tell me what you guys think...

I'll post more detailed pictures later...

I'm still deciding what to do for the marquee, I need to paint the bezel, and I need another graphics card for the computer so that I can do TV and high def output, because for some reason my X600 HDTV cant do both at the same time, but this at least gives you guys an idea, so please tell me what you think

It is hard to tell from that far away and that dark.  Would like some close up pics of the control panel, any custom artwork, and I would like to see the inside of the cab. 

But I would like to say that last year at college I put my cabinet in a very very small apartment room so I understand the sacrifice to put that big ol' thing in your living area.  Lookin' good.   :cheers:

either you are single or you have a very understanding wife!  :banghead:
I'm negotiating with mine to find some place to put my cabs in the house but thats easier said than done.   Its a very nice cabinet and i'm looking forward to seeing more pics.  Good job!

Zoom in a bit. We want to see the woodworking expertise. It's all in the details.

I hope the build didn't interfere with your studies (or is it the other way around?)
