Hi all,
As per my introduction post, I am sharing my first speaker build with the community. I welcome all constructive criticism, be as harsh as you want. I've no doubt made dozens of mistakes in this build.
Here's a link to my build video, I don't know how to embed the video in the forum.
DIY Bookshelf Speakers
Some things I didn't mention in the video:
- I was aiming for a quarter wave transmission line topology
- I forgot to order the inductors with my parts order, as a result, I used an off the shelf 3.3kHz / 12dB per octave iron core crossover
- In a future build, I will do the crossover at 2500 Hz using air core coils and caps
- I left all the imperfections from my "woodworking" as is, since I don't seem to get along that well with wood
- I used 12 mm (1/2 inch) MDF as the material
- I also used some Monacor sound dampening material in the case
Aside from that, I think most of the details are evident.
Thanks,
