supplied the final “eye” to get the angles right on the cabinets. 
Consultants on veneers, glues, and a German consultant on CNC 
machining were used in its development. 

The cabinet required incredible 
precision in manufacturing as the 
cabinet is made of complex curves and 
subtle angles that need to be joined 
seamlessly and perfectly.  

For example, there is not a single right-
angled joint in the entire construction! In 
order to achieve the optical illusion to 
make the cabinet look slimmer than it 
actually is, the sides of the cabinet are 
sloped 1degree top to bottom, and also 

angled 3degrees front to back, and leans backwards by 5degrees. 
Joints and braces had to be cut 

precisely

 at 1degree, 3degree, and 

5degree angles. 

The result is that the cabinet is not only beautiful, but exceedingly well 
damped and vibration-free – contributing to a loudspeaker that is 
extremely low in coloration. It uses subtle angles, complex curves, and 
contrasting colors to transform a loudspeaker into a beautiful piece of 
sculpture or musical instrument.  

Try this as a party trick for the optical illusion in the G6.1: the rear grill 
looks like it has parallel sides when you are looking at it – but when you 
take it out, and try to put it back in upside down, it’s impossible. The 
bottom is more than an inch wider than the top! 

The structural principle used in the construction is this: when any 
loudspeaker is operating, ALL the components of the speaker are set 
into vibration to a larger or smaller extent. The goal of the cabinet is to 
reduce this vibration to a minimum, distribute it, and damp it so that 
there is no energy storage in the cabinet itself. This then eliminates the 
boxy coloration that is evident in many loudspeakers. 

In some parts of the cabinet where vibration would have been the 
greatest, two inches (52mm) of multi-layer bonded MDF was used to 
provide the damping, structural integrity, as well as a rigid platform for 
the drivers to be located. In other parts of the cabinet, extensive bracing 
was carefully incorporated using 25mm slabs of MDF to eliminate 
cabinet flex and panel resonance.
