BUILD: Victrola Style Passive Speaker
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- A victrola style passive amplifier for a cell phone. I'm getting an 11db increase in volume from across the room, more bass and a bit of reverb, all completely unpowered.
• Cone is made from 2 file folders joined with CA glue, and coated with truck bed liner
• Tube is a 2" p-trap with a 2" thread adapter and a 3in flush fit cap, painted with hammer texture paint and then metallic oil-rubbeb bronze
• Mounting bracket is 5/8" aluminum flat stock
• The back plate and phone slot are just from some scrap 2"x10" pine I had lying around.
P.S. I apologize for the dizzying painting sections. Lesson learned I guess. holding camera + 20x speed = obnoxious

I love the sped up sanding parts of the video! The sounds made me laugh like a toddler!
What a super and imaginative build! This is something I want to build.
I was going to try this for a school project and wondered what materials and tools you needed for the whole project as my teacher needs to know. thanks
Nice curve on the horn ! I did one with straight board, but no comparison.
Great sound as well. Better than most commercial products as far as I can tell.
Kudos.....Well Done
of course it works... it's been tried and tested to death in old phonograps...
cheers!
👍👍👍
yours actually works pretty darn good!
Thanks! I use it all the time. We even brought it in the house for Christmas music this year (not sure my wife will let me have it back for the shop though)
11 db is pretty darn impressive for that, turned out very cool. I would have never thought looking at the final product it was made out of construction paper and pvc :p
Thanks! It still gets used all the time. It had to be modified to fit my new phone but it works great.
I love the sped up sanding, it sounds like a moth or something! Great work!
Nice job; the finishing work gives it a refined look.
Thank you!
These type of speakers are excellent--and actually best--for listening to old music like early blues, doo-wop, jazz, swing, etc. Play some "St. Louis Blues" by Bessie Smith or "The Wanderer" by Dion and you'll be hearing those songs as they were originally meant to be heard.
The best performing passive speaker! Thank sharing.
Mother of god!! Don't let the Hipsters see this!!!
Loved this, the whole process.
Thank you!
Clever. I've read of people doing similar things with paper mache but yours looks better.
Thank you!
Sir, this was very good, I enjoyed your workmanship. thanks for the video. pierre from New Mexico
Really love the work and the final product, definitely snagged a new subscriber but I wouldn't be afraid to show us less of each step instead of speeding it up to such a fast pace. I found the sped up bits hard to follow. Just a thought. great videos though, keep it up!
Very good, useful and also artistic. I think if you have a lathe( I assume you dont have) it can much easy.
+Yunus Ali Erol Yeah no lathe yet =(
Well done!
Beautiful, I love it, I'll add this to my "to do list"
How in the hell did you actually come up with this design. freakin awesome!
I needed an amplifier, I had file folders... The rest basically took care of its self :)
Good stuff. Thanks.
Nicely done, brethren!!!
Just found your channel. Great content! I'm really enjoying it!
Thanks!
really impressive ,looks gorgeous but I wonder if is available to build similar for my Samsung Note 3 ?
+melanphilia I was able to modify the part that holds the phone to fit my iPhone 6 with a case, but any bigger than that and you would need to make a different phone holder.
+TabLeft Workshop so there is a hope after all :) thanks my friend, I really really loved this amplifier, need to make one
I have been Googling almost all day for this time of tutorial. Great job!! I wonder if bottom width of the horn is cut down, if I can use smaller pvc parts or copper plumbing parts?? I appreciate you sharing your experiment. Greetings and Merry Christmas from Central Texas~!
Yeah you could probably bring it almost to a point and cut it down to fit any size you want. Good luck, hope you post pics or make a video :)
Also i just eyeballed it on the horn template but if you like that shape i think i still have it if you want it as a reference.
Thanks. I have been playing around and think I finally got down the shape I really like. I went with 1/2" at the bottom of the template. I am working on a a new desk top prototype, but certainly will give credit to you when time. I appreciate you sharing your experiment. Merry Christmas!
Great job, thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Really interesting project, nice!
creativeobsin Thanks! one of my first, i'm actually thinking about re-doing it, now that i'm a little better at editing.
TabLeft Workshop looking forward to it :)
That looks cool as hell
Thank you!
I wish you would've gave some dimensions of the cone panels. And give me some idea. On the dimensions of a coat cone altogether. Cool, project, though.
Simplemente Sensacional
Sabina B M Thank you!
wow nice nice nice.. i'll try try try make it..
Nice job!
Nice Job man, one more channel to watch!
Thank you!
this is a piece of art, can you post a pdf file of the horn template ?
great job! I see that people asked for dimensions in the comments. Did you ever get a chance to make them?
Einfach Genial....
+Frank Radeke Danke!
Nice !
Thanks! I use it all the time.
That "activator" thing always makes me smile. CA glue hardens with moisture so it is expensive water in a spray bottle. :-D
lol try that some time =) while its true that "technically" ca sets with surface moisture if you spray a bead ca glue with water absolutely nothing happens (at least not for a long long time), the activator is an alkaline solution which will set it more or less instantly even when not trapped between surfaces and will set everything even the squeeze out. So its more like expensive baking soda =)
Very nice!
Thanks!
$2 for the card paper, $20 for the plumbing, $2-$30 for the wood (depending what type) $600 for spray cans. Jokes aside looks good when all’s done.
The cellphone goes too deeply in the tube. I can hear a crisper sound, when the cellphone is just half-way inside the tube, compared to fully inside.
But nice build, nevertheless.
What i huge and nice mic amplifier you got there xP
yeah i love it
VERY KOOL
Thank you!
so friggin sweet
Thanks! I have it in my work shop and use it all the time.
I think you should have went with a smaller diameter pipe upto what you have, horns are conical for a reason...
SolarizeYourLife if I did that it wouldn't be conical it would be stepped and that would only serve to reflect and bounce the sounds around. But make it anyway you like.
nice
Thank you!
Now make it a charging station also, and you have a cool gizmo!
Why the coffee beans? Do you eat em when you get tired while building? :) Great acoustic amp idea btw.
lol no i use to smoke a pipe on occasion and used the coffee beans as a place to set down my pipes so they didnt tip over.
@@TabLeft O brilliant the heat of the pipe would heat the beans and produce a nice smell?
prety good , nice work. thnx :-)
Very rube goldberg but brilliant.
Could you give me the dimensions of the shape you used? I made one based off the picture you drew, but mine curves back too much.
thanks,
David
David Zavracky I actually have no idea I just winged it. FWIW that’s drawn on 1/4 graph paper you might be able to screen shot it and trace it in an image editor and you would have the appropriate scale
Bees, farts, and alien sounds from Outer Space. I'm referring to your 20x video speed, not your acoustic horn.
12:19 That sound is so creepy
Interesting
Thanks =)
What is amp?
Great video... But please for the love of hot dogs on my forehead, don't cake on the paint like that!! Thin light coats are better than thick nasty ones
Normally I would agree but I needed really thick coats for this application. One it wasn't paint, and two it needed to be built up in the seams to make to shape ridged. This isn't your average spray job.
Kool 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🔊📢🔩🔨📲
It's a gramophone horn not a Victrola horn. A Victrola is a specific brand of Cabinet phonographs.....Where the horn is in the cabinet..
+Ben livengood well as long as we're being needlessly pedantic about it I think Phonograph might be best... Get it phone-o-graph? See what I did there? 'Cause it's for a phone...
TabLeft Workshop It's not a minor detail... They're two totally different things.
You did make it well and it looks nice. I'm just saying it's not the right thing....
Ben livengood, perhaps this was styled from a Victrola gramophone. My grandmother had a Victrola that had a very similar horn, and quite a large lid on the cabinet.
Stephen That's the Victor school house model, still not a Victrola.
damn dude you must get punched in the face a lot in life , have a nice day lol
be cool to try with yoga mat material
What is the song mann :D ??
some random royalty-free song i found =) its in the description.
try to use a tripod
Show! :) \o/
Good, now make 15 and line them all up to destroy some ears
