Thank you for the pictures!
Looks like the foam is on the sides, tops and bottoms...nothing on the back panel.
I will weight the fill for 50 grams each as suggested in the docs.
Just need the cabinets to start!
Thanks again!
Much Appreciated.
I would like info on the Havard crossover, might try this in the future.

Completed my A26's yesterday.
Posted a small review at Madisonsound.
One word: Excellent.
Wonderful acoustic jazz speakers, placed on 24" stands, damped with sand.
The mids and highs are exceptional here..
Holly Cole, Kasia Lins, Doreen Smith...ah just marvelous.
Tonality of strings are superb, really stunning for such a small package.
IMO. Old school, 1969 all over again!! LOL!
Best Birthday gift ever!

I’d personally do a heavily tapered TL out the back. Stuffed till aperiodic.
If sealed, i’d give it 2-2,5 litres, but you could go smaller. Q 0.707 — it can be used as 2 poles of a HiPass filter at the F(-3)-- or even smaller if the XO is higher
I like low pressure and as little internal reflection back thru the cone.

Sold my A26s a few years ago (went head-fi) but I fully agree with that choice of genre. They are superb for jazz. Enjoy your build!
Note that that onw will date out once i start working on it again. The original link will be updated, the above will not.

I've been using this crossover as specified since I put it into my system some months ago. With some sources and amplifiers, the treble is a little hot. I haven't experimented with a padding resistor on the tweeter.
As promised above here is a snippet of the Klippel measurments of our A35 speaker taken at Seas r&d lab facilities.
Please note that this is at 15 degrees as we tuned the speaker to be pretty flat to the wall so 0deg has a slightly rising response.
The extremely simple serial filter presents a benign load that most amps should cope well with, and distortion is kept at a low 0,3% in the midrange - rising to about 1,3% in the mid-bass/bass. Also, for those of you onteresred, the effect of the aperiodic tuning is clearly seen.
