I'm not planning on it since this was designed to be active. I'm sure it could be done. Just need to properly crossover the woofer to the full-range driver.

This looks like such a fun project. I’m already envisioning little tweaks and personalizations I could do, like maybe cutting out a little scoop on top for that tweeter B&W style. Thanks Joe and Toid for contributing something that I’m sure is going to make a lot of people really happy!

This is Amazing!!! Exactly what I've been looking for and would be nice for a project too.

Nice speakers. Good work guys. Though you have me wondering how they'd do with a chamferred port instead of a slot.

Now I've gotta build these. They look great. As for volume, you could wire a Linkwitz-Riley 3-way active crossover into those amplifiers w/o much work. At 24db/octave rollover, it should reduce the distortion noticeably, but it will cost another $200. It won't be louder, but it will sound louder than they do without the crossovers. I did that with 3-way JBL Pro speakers and a Denon 5803 AVR (6 x 170W MOSFETs), replacing a nightmare passive crossover & a pair of jacked-up and bridged Hafler amps. The max SPL didn't really change: 117db at 1M now, vs 116db with passive, but it sounds a LOT louder, a lot cleaner, w/ a lot of low-end gut-punch.

This is awesome. Very very interesting. Amazing job Joe. Thanks for the video, as always. Because of such crazy awesome videos, this is one of my toplist favourite channel on KZread ..

Fantastic job guys!! Reminds my of my Avantone Abbey's, get really really low for their size. Love to see more bookshelf 3 ways.

this is the kinda setup I wanted to build, LOVE IT! Unfortunately I'm stuck in apartment living so I'll be sticking a 6 inch woofer down below, but this just gives me SO MANY Ideas

With my space and budget constraints, this is exactly what i'm looking for. Even the wood design matches the rest of my house! I love it. Please take my money!

I built a speaker for use with my Icom IC-7100 radio which uses a Dayton RS100-4. Many ham operators use cheap, 2-way speakers with their radios, but I wanted a single driver which could cover the entire range of the human voice with no crossover. The speaker I built using the RS100-4 is the best sounding communications speaker I've ever heard. It even sounds good with the IC-3100 tuned to FM broadcast! I'm sure the RS100-4 works great in your DINAS, because it keeps the crossover out of the all-important mid-range band.

I’ve had this polk audio sound bar with what I believe to be a 6” subwoofer. For being such a small driver, this sub really shows out... I’ve had to take pictures, paintings, etc. off of the wall in the room just because of how bad it would rattle. Impressive for a 6 inch subwoofer, yes, but still not comparable to a much larger driver such as a 12”.... the highs and miss of the sound bar are impressive as well, and can get almost too loud, but yet I find it rare to be ear piercing. Nothing but good review for a somewhat inexpensive Polk sound bar and sub. 👌🏻

I have done just that on my Altec ADA 995 sub. Replaced both drivers with 2x Peerless 830946 drivers. It was good before, now its insane. It doesnt do 35 Hz simply because the ports are not tuned for that, they are tuned for 40 Hz. But it has so much power at that frequency that its making all doors and windows vibrate viciously. The bedroom door I believe it hits its resonant frequency, vibrates louder than the sub is playing, so if I were to play a 40hz tone loud enough for long enough, that door would eventually rip itself off the hinges. In short, stock Altec drivers are nowhere near as good as Tangbands, so upgrading them with something decent, produces a tremendous jump in quality and quantity of bass. DO IT.

@MrShadownoise

I have MX5021 2.1 which I use for TV sound. The built-in amp died (they all do and are impossible to repair due to insane digital tone, balance and volume controls), so I replaced it with one of these 2.1 amps. It is far better than the original Altec Lansing amp - much cleaner, more powerful sound, and surprisingly loses most of the treble harshness. I left the sub and satellite speakers as they were, just removed the old amp and transformer from the sub box, threw away the wired controlled, and fixed the new plate amp in the old hole. Well worth doing.

Dude! You did such a beautiful job on the cabinets and then stuffed a lepai amp into it. Should have put a gainclone kit in it.....maybe a little more work but stellar sound. Nice job regardless.

I’m still not sold on that RS100 for the midrange when you’ve got it sandwiched between a great (sub) woofer and tweeter. I’ve heard it’s a fantastic speaker, but there are tons of great 2-4” options that I think could be a little cheaper and get you a flatter response through the mids. Of course then you’re stuck working out a crossover, which could eat up any money you saved real quick. Hopefully I can build a pair myself soon and do some experimenting!

Vincent Koster I mentioned this same point on an earlier video and it was Joe that said he just really liked the look of the RS100, so I’m not sure that was Toid’s doing entirely. And I really like Dayton and Parts Express, for what it’s worth, and they’ve never paid me anything. They’re just easy to work with because they have tons of options, they’re generally well made, and they publish all the specs you could want making them very easy to model. Parts Express has a fantastic website, huge catalogue, and great service. It’s just as likely in my mind that 123toid likes Daytons and Parts Express for the same reasons I like them, and nothing more.

Oh great, now I want to make some. Suggestion for a wicked midrange: a full range Faital pro. Just use it as a mid crossed over where you need. Total transparency like a scan speak. Very low cost , especially for how good it is.

Paper speake cones are tough to beat. There have been many different materials used in woofers over the years, but paper is still the top choice of most builders. Now this is kind of an interest design for another reason, besides what the commentator tells us. I have several drivers I’ve bought for other projects, but I never completed them for various reasons. So, I’ve got some Dayton Audio 10” inch woofers. I’ve also got a pair of Silver Flute 6.5” mid woofers I was going to put in my car. But after the original speakers were broken in I didn’t need them fir my car. I can use those down to 50Hz. With the active crossover of this system I can cross them anywhere they sound the best. I’ve lost got a pair of 2” dome midrange made by Peerless in the 80’s, but mine are in great shape and sound awesome. The only thing I don’t have are tweeters. I do have a pair of Peerless rectangle snapped some tweeters that I used with this some mids, but they just don’t have that extra something. I like the tweeters he uses here. So I might use the same drivers h uses here and use the 10” woofers to reinforce the bass of the desk speakers, but that’s something that I’ll have to figure our in the room I’m going to use them in. I could always sell the 10” woofers to help fund this build, so, we’ll see how thing’s pan out, but I could theoretically build a set of four way speakers with these, a pair of towers with labyrinth patrician for the very low frequencies, a pair of silver flats from 100hz to 1000 Hz, the dome mids from 1000 Hz p to where ever the tweeters will come in and then the tweeters. I could save the silver flutes for rear channel surrounds using the same tweeters as the Dinas. Or I could use to hem on top of the dinas to widen the soundstage up front. It could bud a lot of fun to figure out!

I prefer the Tang Band W6-1139SI (6.5") paired with the Dayton Audio RS100-4 and Peerless BC25SC06-04. I built them in a D'Appolito configuration with amazing results; no extra subwoofers required.

Thanks for this interesting video. 35 Hz is not just a challenge for bookshelf speakers but even for most other speakers in general. However, what means 35 Hz? At what noise level? By the way, the Dynaudio Crafft is still a great sounding benchmark for bookshelf speakers being able to show no significant drop down at 50 Hz

Great concept and fair quality for the money. I have to admit it is not for the general public since you have to build it yourself + powered (so you most likely you them as monitors speakers) and you need to split the signal for stereo. This is what I think they don't really compare to towers or other bookshelves like the SVS Ultra or Wharfedale because those are mostly meant to be used in living rooms for HiFi or Home Theater listening. I don't really see the DINAS anywhere but a desk.

I would say they will work for two-channel audio, but not for a home theater. Most devices have an analog RCA out or a 3.5mm jack which can be converted to RCA. It is typically only video sources that have a signal that needs to be decoded from DTS or Dolby Digital etc. Even then, you could get a $20 optical to RCA converter on Amazon. Some even have remotes. I've even seen HDMI extractors that split the video and audio signal and converts the audio signal to analog.

They would be really nice for surround sound. Especially if your receiver has a preout. Just hookup the RCA preout straight to the side of the amplifier that you hooked up the speaker to. You will be set. I used it this way in my living room with great success.

For some reason that "Amazing Bass" song killed me. I laughed at that way harder than I probably should have.

Probably the cutest little beasts I've seen in speaker game

Love your videos joe great work love the details and honesty you give your videos hopefully soon u can put these on the market I would buy them 👍

I think that can be a reality one day. I have some ideas.

Glad you put a tweeter in as I find the RS100 to sound quite unpleasant up high.

Why they "only" go down to 50 hz(in flat mode). Is it the amp responce or are these speakers tuned to 50 hz. Good design by the way, I wanted to make a 3 way speaker with the TB but a lot of crossover calculations did make me skip the project. This project is more DIY friendly. Nice Speakers 😃

I think it has more to do with how the speaker itself responds as well as how it's tuned.

Are you in your new location? Would love to see an official demo in your new place. That would be encouraging. Meanwhile, thanks for the encouragement on using this model plate amp.

Hey Joe! Just got to your channel and your stuff is amazing specially since I've been tumbling around with audio and all that good stuff !! I also have a question. ¿Could I use this build as a flat response home studio monitor?

There are more accurate studio monitors, bit this is the most fun. Bass is insane.

"...there's more to a speaker than bass" Does that really require stating? I guess it depends on what music you listen to. I'd be interested in seeing someone who reviews commercially produced speakers compare something like this to some of the more known branded speakers. This idea is definitely "food for thought". Great video, thanks.

@@attainableaudio4533 Exactly, I didn't phrase it very well, but that's what I was trying to convey.

I'd LOVE to have a pair of these......except I'm too Lazy to Build them.......

Muito belo👏👏👏👏👏

What a cool project. Would a non straight or toothed port edge make turbulence and get rid of the chuffing? Would like to see a group delay measurement if someone made one. He should sell the cabinets on Amazon or Ebay.

My dual W5-1138 subwoofer has a slotted port. I’ve been using slot ports for over 14 years in all of my designs.

Oh yeah, slotted ports aren't new. They are just a variation of the port on that Voxel subwoofer we based some of this build on.
