I'm in Brazil for thousands of kilometers, but I do not stop to enjoy your videos. You have a lot of skill, and creativity. I really enjoyed your projects, so I'm going to make a more spicy version of your project. As soon as I am ready I will send you for your appreciation. Congratulations on the excellent quality of the video, I'm now a follower of your channel.
That is sensational, and significantly better than the first build (despite it being fantastic also). love the channel, love what you're doing mate, awesome stuff!
your art, the music selection, just delete any feeling in me and clear my head, I enjoyed watching your work because it made feel better and it cleared my head and just amazed of your skills. really good job man
I really like the design aesthetic of this build! I've been planning out a speaker bar for several months and your bus struck me. I really like that you've left the plywood exposed on the edges
Aw-some !! If I may suggest,... I would have routed the power input cord thru the cantilever bottom plate to make it "invisible"... Your work and skill make me dream....
10:24 Что бы приклеилось ровно и качественно - проглаживать горячим утюгом через тонкую хлопчато-бумажную ткань. Проверено много раз лично! What would stick exactly and efficiently-iron with a hot iron through a thin cotton fabric. Checked many times in person! Greetings from Russia !
Excellent stuff...and very well made..how about adding couple of neodymium tweeters, one 5'' Passive radiator and more Polly fill ? does that make sense ?
With this build no MIniDSP was involved. The bluetooth amplifier board has an built-in crossover set by one of the pots. It's easy enough to tune by ear, but I tend to take measurements with my microphone and software to get the optimal crossover point.
Hi there Soundblab! I like your builds. I have one question though. At 16:35 it looks like you are wiring a DC power supply to an AC amplifier with a jumper cable between the two AC inputs, how is that even possible? Are there any sources out there on the internet that can elaborate on why this works? Thanks for you videos, keep 'em coming!
Hi Vincent, thanks! I honestly do not know how this works. I only followed the instruction from the supplier. My electronics knowledge is limited in this field.
@@SoundBlab ah, too bad. Can't know everything in life ;) Thanks for the reply though! By the way, where's your accent from, if I may ask? I can't figure it out at all
I want to say, "Huh ok for him with his fancy workshop and all to tools to go with it" but I can't, because he's a craftsman and all the tools in the world are no good without the know how. So instead I say Darn fine job Sir.
Really great build sir, I wanted to build the same, please suggest that what are the ideal box dimensions if we use the w6 1139sf TB sub, and also port size? Waiting for reply.
You can't get to the amplifier to adjust something ... And why not lead the connection cables down into the platform or into the intermediate piece in order to connect the cables there? So they hang on top of the case ...
Good observation. The port is somewhat of a compromise to allow a reasonable enclosure volume. When driven to very high volumes it will make a noise, but at normal listening levels, which I am intending this to be mostly used at it works fine.
The site is working. Maybe try again when you have a moment. Might have just been a temp time out or update. Let me know if you keep struggling to get on.
Very nice project! I'll start a DIY Bluetooth portable speaker on my channel. I have electronics background, but I don't know about woodwork. I think your project can help me. How do you calculate the port size?
Thanks. You can use the driver Thiele Small parameters and this calculator www.mh-audio.nl/reflexboxcalculator.asp to determine the box volume and port size.
Love this design. I have one question though: have you tried routing the AC mains through the foot? would make it even cleaner looking if the connector was inside the aluminium block. Shouldn't be impossible if you use a 90 degree female connector (like this: images.monoprice.com/productlargeimages/76833.jpg) on the lead that lays flush with the table.
Thanks man. Yes, thats a very good idea, and something I did consider. However, I wanted to put build plans together for this and felt that could complicate it somewhat. But, it is also nice to leave some things for the imagination so that guys can make their own special touches on their own builds.
SoundBlab awesome build man..I'm doing a custom Boombox of Rockford Fosgate 6.75 speakers and power by a TPA3116D2 (100w x 2) you think a 24v / 5A switch power supply will be great for this amp?
One suggestion. Since you are selling those plans, how about you messure the frequency response of the speakers. The 44 Hz - 20000 Hz (-3dB) doesnt really give out any information. Knowing the frs 8 i can say that especially the high frequencies are not that clean and since its a broadband speaker the directionality wont be that nice either. Also it would be nice if you could record the speakers a bit louder. I would guess that the port would give you some noises. I really like the design but i would like to know the sound of the speakers before i would start to build them.
Check out the sound test clip of this build here ua-cam.com/video/p_GI_dw41wI/v-deo.html I will do a FQ response soon when I get some time and upload to my website. The port does produce some noise when pushed to the limits, but it was intentional to achieve an ideal enough enclosure size, not too big. The design of this speaker was really to make something that will produce good sound at moderate listening levels. Not really a party boombox, and by the time you pump up the volume too far, the full range drivers will start to scream a bit, but that is mostly due to the bluetooth limitations of the amplifier.
Hi Alexander. Sorry the site is on a very slow server and I am in the process of moving it to another server that will be faster. But I see that you did manage to get the plan in the end. Thanks for the support!

Very nice. Only thing I would suggest is that the power cord comes in to the foot so you do not see it hanging down from the box.

I like how you did the port. And of course the cantilever stand too.
Thanks.
Fantastic looking build! I think the look of veneer on a very nicely cut piece of plywood looks wonderful the way you did it.
Mesmerising to watch. Amazing craftsmanship and great music. Thanks!
Thanks
You're very good at designing.
Thanks
Great build!! But I would like to see how it sounds. Plz make sound testing video soon.
Check the video after this one on my channel
Aw-some !!

Fantastic, perfect job ,Very beautiful!!
Thank you so much 😀
@@SoundBlab Love your designs! Organization and perfection go together, Amazing!
Could you do a video explaining how you design the enclosure and calculated the volumes and port size etc? Great build, thanks for sharing.
I want to do a more conventional speaker build next year. I can include it in that.
Awesome i will look forward to it, Thanks
Great job! Gave me some ideas for my next project. Just ordered the same amplifier board to test out.
Cool 😎
Great build. But i think that the AC shout be installation outside of speaker incase of prevent the vibration and noisy inside
What did you set your amplifier gains too ? As they aren’t accessible once screwed together
In the build plans I give an indication of that, but some tweaking can obviously be made depending on personal taste.
Awesome design mate... Timeless! Perfect piece on a console top!
Thanks
Muy profesionales tus trabajos!!!

nice slot port. i like the down firing for the sub. wich speakers are? upload a video to check how sound
Thanks. Sound test clip coming soon.
Interesting to see the Afrikaans newspapers you work on - haven't seen those in a while :). Nice project.
Thanks man.
Lekker om sulke kreatiwiteit te sien uit SA, hou baie van jou Channel

Do you use the miniDsp to previously test and then choose the right internal crossovers?
With this build no MIniDSP was involved. The bluetooth amplifier board has an built-in crossover set by one of the pots. It's easy enough to tune by ear, but I tend to take measurements with my microphone and software to get the optimal crossover point.
Great Music and great boombox

It is contact cement

Hi do you think it would be possible to fit the 2.1 arylic upstream amp to this instead ??
The Arylic board is slightly bigger, but I’m sure their is space inside the enclosure to make it fit.
@@SoundBlab love the channel . Any new projects coming up ?
Thanks. Yes soon, hopefully before the end of Feb.
can you please help me suggesting the size of the sound bar I am making using 2.5' speakers and 4' woofer'?

Great Build !! Keep it up 👍
Love this design. Thanks again for detailed information

great work. how do you adjust the volume, eq when the amp is inside?
Thanks. Volume preset on the amp and then adjusted with the bluetooth playback device, e.g. phone.
Nice work and nice music selection. Bravo!👍👍
This is exactly the type of box i am wanting to build for my garage shop.
Awesome build!

Where I can buy this material 17:43 ?
Its foam weather stripping. You can get it on Amazon or your local hardware store should stock it.

Awesome build. Did you not have any concerns with mains voltage in a wooden box though?
The box is vented, so it does not give any problems with heat etc.
Great build

It's amazing! Good job, bro!)
p.s. From Russia with love ;)
Thanks!
Wow. This guy is really good. Very impressed.
Hey, What wires am I gonna use? Is there a kit with all the wires, or doesn't it matter what cables I am using?
Speaker wires 16AWG and power 14AWG, but over short runs 16AWG should be fine for both.
Okay thank you XD
Okay, in the build plan, do you say what types of wires you are using?
What kind the amplifier you used bro?

I know that subwoofer driver, it can move absolute heaps of air so I see no way that thin slot-port will every be able to handle it
Good observation. The port is somewhat of a compromise to allow a reasonable enclosure volume. When driven to very high volumes it will make a noise, but at normal listening levels, which I am intending this to be mostly used at it works fine.
That makes sense, there's always gonna be some compromise, the enclosure would otherwise become unwieldy big. I really like the cantilever design btw
Thanks
To reduce the noise of the ports it helps a lot to round the ends of it with. Less turbulence, less noise, less loss of energy.
What if he had used a passive radiator that was the same size as the subwoofer that was on the same panel?
That's legit, keep up the good work.
Thanks
trying to see the plans for this but the website wont come up. i like building stuff. got me through some rough times

could I replace the two front speakers with 5.25 inch coaxial speakers? The model number is GT 7-5
Thanks!
You could, but you will have to adjust the size of the enclosure to make them fit and to suit the specifications of the drivers.
Awesome build, but how do they sound?
Check the following video on the channel
Awsome build and its great to see a fellow safa representing.. quick question did you port or seal the visaton speakers ?
Thanks! They are sealed.
Are you from South Africa? Cool build man
I am, Cape Town. Thanks!
What is that saw and guide system you are using?

Hey. great video! Please inform what acoustics installed, a link if possible.
Cuales son los materiales nos puedes decir
Looks great! But link to the build plan is not working.:(
Fixed. Thanks for letting me know!
How did you made that badge on your speaker system?
It is a resin dome badge. If you Google it you should find a supplier in your area.
Love this design. I have one question though: have you tried routing the AC mains through the foot? would make it even cleaner looking if the connector was inside the aluminium block.

that you soldered to the amp ?
It is the wires from the 3.5mm input jack. The amp provides option of bluetooth or input via the jack.
Great job thnks for sharing
