A home-made speaker system, if made with high quality, will sound no worse than a factory one, and will cost much less. Its only drawback compared to the purchased one will be its relative bulkiness.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose any dimensions of the box for a homemade speaker system, the length of each of its sides can be from 250 to 400 millimeters. But if two identical columns are made, then their dimensions should be the same.
Step 2
Use a jigsaw to cut six planks. With the width of the box equal to W; height equal to B; depth equal to G and wall thickness equal to T, boards must have the following dimensions:
- bottom and top cover - WxD;
- side walls - (B-2T) xG;
- back wall - (V-2T) x (Sh-2T);
- front wall - similar to the back one, minus a small margin on each side for opening.
Step 3
Using a screwdriver and self-tapping screws, assemble the box, but do not install the front wall yet.
Step 4
Take two piano loops. With their help, secure the front wall from the front, similar to the door of the nightstand, so that it can open outward. Install a stopper to prevent it from opening inward and breaking the hinges. Use a latch to lock the front wall in the closed position. It should be fixed tightly, without staggering.
Step 5
Take an oval driver with dimensions of about 100x200 mm. Redraw its oval to the middle of the front wall. Within this oval, drill about twenty randomly spaced holes with a diameter of about 5 mm in the front wall.
Step 6
Solder wires to the speaker. If it is of the old type and does not have a dust cap, wrap it in a cloth immediately afterwards. Drill four mounting holes in the front wall and fix the head to the front wall. If there is a dust cap, simply place a cloth spacer between the diffuser and the front wall, but do not wrap the cap completely.
Step 7
Drill several tenths of holes with a diameter of about 5 mm in the back wall. Attach four legs to the bottom of the box.
Step 8
Connect the wires to an amplifier with a maximum power of 3 W, rated for the same load impedance as the head.
