When the speakers got to the sanding room, one of the first things the sanders did was to putty-up the rear edges of the box panels.  If the speakers were mitered boxes, then they often ended up filling the builder's stamps in, because they were gonna get those rear edges painted black after they left the sanding room.  So they puttied them up and sanded them smooth.  If the paint layer is thin enough, you may be able to barely see the builder's initials...it depends!  For the raw birch speakers, they also puttied up the rear edges of the panels, but it is much easier to find the initials, even if they were filled up with putty, because the rear edges were not shot with black paint...unless the speaker was shipping black.  The last thing the sanders did before sending to the finishing department was to stamp in their own code...that is why their stamped-in code is more prominent than that of the builder.  Pretty simple!
