RearSounds, where the workshop is the product
A Grand Forks maker sells six handbuilt, made-to-order loudspeaker models, from bookshelf speakers to floorstanders, a centre channel, and a portable.
Field notes
RearSounds frames each pair as a documented individual object rather than warehouse inventory: the maker says it measures and signs the cabinets, then includes the measurement curve for their serial number. The stated design target combines at least 89 dB sensitivity with a benign impedance curve for twenty-watt tube amplifiers. The homepage lists six models and a 30-day home trial, while currently using elevation drawings because finished-pair photography is still in progress.
