Nice boxes, but orange?
As @deantown says, they are actually red - with a hint of orange maybe...
Everyone paints their speakers black, and I just thought that was boring. They’re all hidden behind either the screen, or the fabric walls - so you can’t see them now anyway.
There was a little concern that the red/orange would show through the screen, but that hasn’t been an issue - if I’d used a different screen material, it may have been though.
Anyway, I got half decent at building boxes - it’s not as easy as people might think, particularly in getting every corner absolutely square - clamping in one direction often pulls it out of square in another, and you find yourself going round and round in circles having to make small adjustments before the glue goes off!
So strange as it might seem for the OP to show off a box - I get it; it’s an achievement!

True that. Angle of shot, amount of light and many other factors affects the perception of color.
If a can of paint says red it's red.
Seeing your work I'd say you're quite professional. I don't have a wood shop. Just a table and power hand tools.
