The Boominator - another stab at the ultimate party machine - Page 256

Wow fantastic, thank you Saturnus.

No holes in the centerbracing? ok, but other than that just go with the same measurments as one side of the boominator? ofc with a port for each speaker as you say, right?

Another thing just came to my mind, how do i connect the speakers to the amp?
one woofer and one tweeter to each channel?

thanks again for such a fast reply!

Correct on both points.

Also. Since there have been reported lots of issues the Lepai amp, I can no longer in good conscience recommend it as a cost saving (non-diy) alternative to the AMP6. Instead I recommend this eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

At $8.50 including freight anywhere in the world the price is unbeatable as a low cost alternative. Not in a case but a Hammond 1590N case (of any kind) fits perfectly. Doesn't have to be an alucase either if you're only loading it with 8 ohms so a HA1591CFLBK case also do nice in that case.

Yea okay, thats cheap!!
But i cannnot see where i am supposed to attach the jack or wires for the input?
and will schematics and such come with this assembled amp?

one fast off-topic question, how would an amp like that perform with 2x15W do if i connected 2 small hifi living room speakers? for use indoor too of course..

best regards

It's says on the amp where to connect speakers, power, and input.

This is more or less identical in sound to the original t-amp with a input cap mod. Google it to find reviews. It's a fantastic amp.

First i would like to say that its a very awesome party machine you managed to smack together Saturnus, and its very cool you are willing to answers peoples questions even though its 5 years since you made this thread.

Well I'm going to roskilde this year and my brother and I would very much like to replicate your project. So far we managed to get together some parts.
4x SPA-25PA
4x Horn
2x TheseDunno what they are called in english

My question is which resistance i need for the horns, and is there an alternative to the Amp6B - it is quite expensive.

Altso i found thisLCD display/volume controller, will it have any influense on the sound quality?

Thanks in advance

Have you already bought those drivers? Because they are not suitable replacements for the intended ones.

Mut · 14th February 2012, 05:02 PM

No i haven't

Then scroll back a few posts where I advice obrah where to get the right ones, and an ultra-low cost alternative to the amp6. (It's basically only 5-6 posts before your post).

Saturnus, can you clarify why one would choose the Amp 6 basic instead of the much cheaper TA2024 based amp from Ebay?
