Hmmm... Mr. Ira, I have a question, what are the dimensions of the RC-550?
'Cause it seems that with 10" woofers, shouldn't that body be a little bigger? It looks a tad-bit out of proportion...

Re: cutting speaker grilles: look around town for a machinist or metal worker with a water-jet machine. They will be able to cut any pattern for little money. This is a place near me: http://www.waterjetdesign.com/
Wicked cool idea, Ira....
And if you really put a tape drive in it.... the bar under the tape drive might come in handy to protect the transport buttons. Similar to the Aiwa TPR-950/955.
(There's a particular GE box that might have been useful to you for that project, too.... so a double-thanks
)

)hey jaetee -
IF this case ever becomes a GO -
and then --IF it ends up looking really great -
then --it could have all its own custom fit woofers and amps and a deck installed-- etc etc
ie - a real -- ' start from scratch ' brand new box
but --for starters --
the plan is --to make this case a cosmetic housing -
for a great working//sounding M70 -
which will fit - neatly inside

Ira sometimes i do not know why jvc did not just make that monsterous box when they had made the mono rc550,,basicly it was mostly cosmetics adding the extra speakers mics one more vu ,making the handle ie m90 style and then ,,electronics was simply adding the extra audio chip ,,and had made atleast 10,000 of them 
THE REDBEN-J 1100... WOW...I LOVE THE SOUND OF IT ALREADY....redbenjoe said:
a real factory dual 550 with twin 10" woofers -
and the clean power to run them -
would have been the undisputed king of all boxes

Yea, and he could sell the idea to Coby Electronics!!!!
love the plan Ira, cant wait to see it down the road a bit. Shame theres not loads of 550 beaters around as you could of tried to build a cut and shut, but i gues if there was we would all be building them
some tiny progress --
while waiting for the SB 10 inch white grills --
the tweeter covers and the outer woof rings arrived --
i know its very hard to see or decide much on a paper mock-up -
but - for the heck of it -
what do you folks like better for this design -
white or black speaker grills ?
