Greetings All,
I just got myself into the whole loophole of wanting to build my own speakers. However, I think my approach differs a little from everyone else's since my focus on aesthetics is quite high. (Designer Alert)
I will list my questions after I explain my idea:
I'm planning to build a mono speaker, similar to a Bluetooth speaker but will powered directly from the wall. I've been reading on building a speaker since I woke up so here is the accumulation of my work:
A. Mono Speaker - 2 way: Tweeter + Woofer, here are the parts I've settled on would be great if I get some input on these:
1.Peerless SLS-85S25CP04-04 3-1/2" Paper Cone Woofer 4 Ohm
2.https://www.parts-express.com/pedocs/specs/264-1028--tymphany-bc25sc06-04-spec-sheet.pdf
B. The total diameter for each driver cannot exceed 4" due to design constraints (the dimensions are 4" × 4" × 10")
C. the big question is, should I get one amplifier for both drivers? or should it be separate for each? The solution that I'm looking for is a simple on/off, volume control, and Bluetooth connection all built into the speaker. Every amplifier I find is either stereo or mono with one out channel. I've also been looking at the Dayton KAB solutions, both the 250 for stereo and 100 for mono.
D. Finally, I plan to design a wooden screen/mesh to cover the speakers to complete the unit's overall design. a fabric will cover the drivers and then the mesh will be on top of the fabric. How much will this affect the quality?
Help is much appreciated!
I will treat you all to the 3D conceptual design of the speakers soon!
