Hey to solve your chuffing issues, you can use a slot port in your future builds to reduce port noise by 70%. All that said, i think its one of the greatest builds iv'e ever seen!!!!.
Thank you! I have actually realised that myself after completing the project and have updated the design by placing the power supply on the bottom which you can find on my Instructables post.
Holy mackerel Brother. Awesome job, I felt like I was watching how its made. How To...Anyone with all your equipment already knows how to build it. Im looking to do a stand alone but i was going to tart up some old car speaker stuff and using no jigs or fancy equipment. Dont get me wrong I build systems for homes and cars and in order to be productive we build boxes sand edges and cover with material, your build is geared more for master tinker guys. With your skills make a box with old parts and minimal time and public would not get discouraged
I love all the DIY vids. As a regular john smith I certenly do have the workshop, all this cheap and small hardware and skill to make one of these ;) Who are the videos for once again?
This was for 95% a joy to watch. Such a treat. Fine design and beautifully crafted. No expenses spared. But in all honesty, I had a hard time swallowing the terrible potmeter knobs that violated the enclosure, especially after turning a blind eye to the cheap banana plugs. Hence the 95%. Compared to the cost of the build it would have been cheep to get some nice knobs and terminals. But thanks for the upload, I really enjoyed it a lot. 👍👍👍
Millwork is nicely done, virtually the same as i would have done. Try using shellac as a sealer as it will not cause any swelling of particle board or MDF. Just a handy hint.😉 Dry & ready to handle in 10 to 15 minutes or less.
One of the rare builds on YT I actually like. Kudos. TIPS: Add some Sonofil (or something similar) in the box. It will "increase" the box size and make the woofer play a bit lower and softer(but not muddy). Additionally, it also helps with standing wave dissipation and tends to help with some potential port noise. Also, make sure that the intake of the port (one inside the box) has at least the diameter of the port of distance between the wall facing the port input. That greatly reduces port noise(if you have any). So, if your port diameter is 8 cm, make sure that the intake is at least 8 cm away from the box wall facing the port input.
Good work , perfect design for small woofer. I maded few DIY projects myself and bigger subwoofers require screws connections otherwise after few months glue and paint will crack for sure.
I believe people without the same tools can make A BOX using basic tools. This was done by a professional and if you aren’t you shouldn’t expect your outcome to be at his level.
Great build! Clean design. Good engineering. I do recommend using a push stick on the table saw more often and clamping pieces when drilling. Thank you for the great video.
I did some canned spray box before, it always doesn't end well even after using lot's of primer and sealant, so I decided to to send it to my friend's auto body shop and use automotive spray paint. The end result is way better than canned spray only cost a little more. The paint is thick so all the mounting need to cut a little bigger.
Dude thats a very loving job you've done building that Sub but I would've put the power supply on the floor of the unit because heat will over time melt the tape and I suspect the weight of the power supply will cause damage and you grief having to undo your excellent work. And I would use 8 gauge cable for the signal wires to your other speakers. Its a wonderful thing seeing someone taking pride in their work and sharing the results.
Nice idea, no comments there, but if a person does not have the machines that you use, it is a very different kettle of fish! Letting your local shop cut the wood, will raise the price big time. Then, it, could be, easier to buy a sub ready made!
why step down to 12 volts when the amp calls for 24v? and why use a special power supply like that when 12v is so common and could be in line with the power cord and not mounted inside?
The box is very nice! But the electronics are.... well maybe its just me but I would never use those SMD and switching mode shits. Why would I use SMD if I have enough space for THT? I will never understand.
Honestly that's just asking for trouble using double sided sticky tape to stick the power supply to the roof of the sub.... But non the less very good job and nice build my friend, keep up the good work
You did a lot of work here but there is a lot going on that is not so great. Maybe you could watch some threads on audio forums. Not trying to be an a-hole, but seeing a lot of work and a not so great outcome. Things that could be better is the diameter of the port and internal placement, it is too close to a wall and the air velocity is too high. You should always place the amplifier and power source on the bottom and mounted with screws. It also looks like you pushed the power cable socket in without an adhesive. It is so close to being really good, just for a few details. I do hope you will continue because you have talent enough 👍
@@justins.1283 I think the best type of subwoofer is the one directed down the floor, each other is a waste of energy that we will not feel, sometimes it is better to buy a weaker but directed at the floor than a stronger one directed to the side.
Hey Donny nice work. Build quality is great. But for people who is care about sound quality measurements of signals more important. If you want to move your channel level up add that stuff as well. Good luck!
The distortion figures for TPA3116D are around about 0.2%, which is perfectly acceptable below 100Hz as hearing is less sensitive to distortion there, BUT the IC is only capable of 50W into 4R, which means you need an optimum box size for the driver you are using, otherwise you will get massive amounts of excursion and little actual bass output. In other words you cannot use a small box with such an underpowered amplifier. Is your box size calculated on the Thiele Small Parameters for optimum ported? Does it shake the room?
That's sub bass which is under 20hz, it's impossible to have a woofer playing at let's say 50hz without being able to hear it. (If it's rated for 50hz that is) Also this system can't give you those low frequencies that are supposed to be felt as both the box and the driver are way to small.
Another sweet build. If ever you get the chance though,,, change those toy knobs to something a bit more respectable. Those things are a disrespect to your work.
@@DonnyTerek All good , you did a great job. I do agree with Struggling Paradox though , your work standard is above the look of those. I often collect quality knobs from old broken down vintage audio components .
Exactly! It is all easily done, IF you own a complete woodworkshop! If you don't buy a ready to assemble kit, many of them around, with good components! Nice idea, but not realistic!
@@peter_aka_hamamass You can build this sub with very little tools actually. A drill , ( even a hand turned non powered one will do ) a good hand saw , and perhaps a electric jig saw . It would just take more time and care. It`s how most things were made years ago. Some of us have forgotten , but many never knew in the first place.
dumpster fire of wiring techniques. Not tinning wires and so many others, but my favorite is putting solder on the through holes for a power or speaker wire and then surface mounting them. The through holes are there for a reason.
Yes this is powerfull enough for home use bcz this subwoofer has 40W and is tuned (according to the pipe how long it is) to around 36Hz which is really good. But my choise will be the slightly stronger subwoofer with slightly bigger enclosure ( longer for longer pipe ). for 2.1 set the 70W subwoofer would be enough. I have set of 1x600W subwoofer , 1X 800W subwoofer , 3X 60W mid-range speakers only for mid ( loud asf ), 2X 40W and 4X 20 tweeters. Every single speaker is perfectly balanced for my room and my hearing ability with digital 24bit equaliser.
