From years back, I had a set of Jamo C603?s with some cabinet damage. They lay around for ages, and since Jacque was building me the record stands and high cabinet, asked him to replicate the cabinets and improve on some basics.

Here?s how the story goes.

Replicating the front baffles.

Internal brace, much more substantial than the original ?stick?.

Rear cut-outs for connections/crossover and port.

A light flat and hand polishing still to be done, but looking like a sweet little set of speakers!

Will finish off with original badging, and some decent feet.
