Depending on the size of your project, you might find overruns for veneer on eBay. I have found some pretty cool examples of zebra-wood, and book-matched walnut there..., Turns out there is a lot of scrap from the luxury airplane manufacturing industry... (I spoke to one seller way back when) and they sell the fairly big scraps on eBay, leftover from a build-out of a plane for a luxury buyer's customization. I have another project to cover a Kenwood turntable with zebra-wood (replacing the ugly vinyl veneer it came with). Spent just a few bucks for several pieces 8" wide by 36" long which will do the job for me. 😉 Amazon is a good place too, for sure.

Have you ever used the heat/iron method with straight titebond wood glue? I re-veneered a pair of EPI 400 speakers using this method, and 4-quarter book-matched walnut on the top surface. It worked quite well.

Thank you sir, appreciate your help. I really am looking for some burlwood veneer. I love the look of it!

Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009KN8INE?ref_=ppx_hzod_title_dt_b_fed_asin_title_0_0 I've used Mahogany as well. .... I think the vendor was "Edge Supply" $42 for the cherry, 2ftx8ft was perfect for this project, only a few square inches of waste. I use the old-school paper backed stuff with contact cement. There is a peel-and-stick option as well. Contact cement has tripled in price in 6 years .....used to be $8/quart now its 24. Similar issue with the finish I use .... A quart of General Finishes Arm-R-Seal Satin is $45, half that not long ago. Unfortunately I was out of both ..... should have bought a pint of each.

Welcome @Fernando Achiary, I love my NHT speakers. I progressed from the 2.5s and 2.5i’s to the 2.9’s then to the massive 3.3’s powered by a RAM 285. I absolutely love the sound of this pairing.
