    If you used 4.7 microfarad capacitors for the tweeters you have the crossover frequency at about 8000 Hz. That's quite high. You should also use bipolar caps.

Thanks to you I got a lot of info from your videos like the capacitor (filter) in the tweeter and the wave lenght . I´m from Chile btw I hope you are doing well and and thanks.

    Hello Alan - from East London!
    I've been obssesed with your video's recently as my ADHD + (minor) sound engineering skills have led to me to build party speaker boxes just like this with the help of my neighbour (who is a carpenter!)
    My first build started off when my neighbour cleared his shed out and handed me a MASSIVE car sub he once had installed in his car once apon a time, which with the fact that i had previously bought a £50 party speaker for my nephews birthday party sent me through sleepless nights and moments of online shopping at midnight!
    Anyway with some testing / ripping apart / re boxing / ripping apart / reboxing... I currently have 2 builds,
    1. 1 x WANGCL 2 x 160W + 220W 2.1 Channel Amplifier (15 - 36v) + 1 x 12" 200w Subwoofer + 2 x JVC 300W Peak/30W RMS Power speakers in a rather large / long box
    2. 1 x WANGCL 2 x 50w + 100w 2.1 Channel Amplifier (12 - 24v) + 1 x 5" 100w Subwoofer + 2 x JVC 300W Peak/30W RMS Power speakers in a much more portable box
    I am planning a 3rd design where I combine the two - I have sourced a nice 200w 5.25" Subwoofer.
    With the 2nd and potentialy 3rd design I'm having a little trouble with satisfying my bass wants, I wonder if I would need to put together a slightly more complex scoop (NOTE - ALL DESIGNS HAVE A BOXED OFF ENCLOSURE + A 'LIP' TO TRY AND EXTEND THE AIRFLOW TO THE CUTOUT AT FRONT) - Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated!

    You could get 12mm thick MDF and make it into a 2.1 set up with the speaker boxes (12L each) being tuned at 80Hz for that chest hit and the subbie with a 42Hz tune in about 20L (0,7 cubic feet). Both the speakers and the sub have front facing slot ports. Or you could make a huge portable speaker box like the old one but this time with separate chambers between the subbie and the 6.5" woofers and slot ports or tubes again tuned at 80Hz for the 6,5" and 42Hz for the 8". Do keep in mind that the port to cone area needs to be around 10-20%. Sorry for the long comment. CHEERS!

    • @PacmanBasshead
      @PacmanBasshead  3 місяці тому

      Haha, valid comment! Im toying with the idea of making cabinets for a 2:1 or another portable box, im leaning towards another portable box because of the drill battery adaptor now, but i also want to make some super nice looking cabients!

  • @Nellabellabi
    @Nellabellabi 3 місяці тому

    If you know the speakers FS/QES value (or QTS) you can calculate the EBP. And there you got a referens value for box volume.
    Dont forget to add volume depending how much the speaker/hardware takes up volume of the box.
    You can also calculate via free online websites if or not how big/long the ports are going to be.
    Dont forget, ports with inserts takes volume.
    But as you say, if i understand you correctly you want to measure the speakers yourself to get a true value of EBP, instead of whatever jibberish values the seller writes..
    If they even exist at all.
    I like this kind of videos you do, very cool with the battery!
    Cheap (affordable) portable speakers can sound pretty nice, as long as you dont expect high SPL. But if you do get it, pretty darn awsome.
    Hope this info helps others who would like to try, and at least get a close enough box volume to sound OK.
    Best regards from 🇸🇪

    Dude, Aliexpress is the OG of these Chinese marketplaces. It's my go-to. Actually it is my only one I will use.

      Temu gets all the hype though! I do find the prices vary from listing quite a lot once they are in your basket!

    You inspired me to build an isobaric subwoofer enclosure from an old desk sitting in the garage and it looks like hot garbage but sound decently nice. (2) 8" MCM subwoofers which cost $24 for the pair delivered and when compared to my Elac 10" sub it's not even comparable, haha, but still it was fun to build.

      Hot garbage is my new favourite saying haha, you can build cabinets out of anything! Ive got an old display cabinet sat staring at me, waiting to be used!

      Did you purchase the high excursion 8" MCM drivers. They are actually quite good if loaded into the correct cabinets & tuning. People on DIYAudio forums were building tapped horns and 1/4 wave alignments around them years ago.
      Sadly MCM Electronics was consolidated into Newark Electronics years ago, a subsidiary of Farnell Electronics. Newark does carry about 7O% of the drivers that MCM sold, but seem to be slowly phasing them out! And they don't advertise them at all! The "pro" line of drivers would complete with the low/mid tier of Eminence at a fraction of the cost, and occasionally go on sale or clearance making them super cheap in the USA.

      ​@@xxxxxxxxxx6903 They are good and exceeded my expectations. The only issue I had with doing a horn was the lack of wood from the desk I was using because I wanted to stay inline with using recycled wood and come to find old mdf from the 80s has a very pleasant pine wood scent. I did a cone to magnet Isobaric and mounted it within a 10"x10" box wrapped in a 14"x16" enclosure, front dual vented. It doesn't sound as nice because it doesn't have the frequency range as other enclosures would be capable of but for its size it's impressive.
