Hi, The speakers that I own (Sonist-"Concerto 4") have two inch thick poplar wood front baffles. I talked with the designer (Randy Bankert) and he said he tried a bunch of different woods before settling with poplar as it was the best sounding to his ears.
Instead of mounting the drivers on the outside ,he mounted them on the inside and beveled the wood to create a horn of sorts to help with dispersion. If you look at a picture of them you will see what I mean.
