Please continue to make the step by step videos. They really help us DIY'ers who know very little about wiring amplifiers.Your builds are great and the education you provide is fantastic !!!
Why doesn't this have more views??? It has been a long time since I have found a video which could not just acually help me but was also easy to understand! Very well done! Keep ip up!

Zenyatta- Not only all you said; but funny (if you watch it to the)! Kirby the one keeping alive in build. Real answers. Real good. I love the music too. This one reminds me of "Mr. Rodger's Neighborhood"
Absolutely love this! It's like watching a baby growing up and learning as we go. So much fun and can't wait for the next vid.

yea...we need this step by step guide more often, because for someone who doesn't know about this stuff,itc easy watching you do this...so do it more and more often,so we can learn
Both styles of your videos are great, each one has it's place. The technical ones with the talk through are nice because it explains how it works and what you've encountered using the components. The build videos with no voice are awesome to watch and your camera perspectives and music makes them like you're watching an artistic video. Thanks for the awesome videos, you seem like a really cool dude.
Finally someone who explains it nice and simply. This is what I have been looking for for a bit.

Wonderful! This is the best thing I could hear from you. Thanks for watching and welcome!
Been thinking about building speakers recently and your breakdown of the process is phenomenonal. I was going to ask a question about the Bluetooth board, but you answered it at the end. Great video. Inspired me actually give it a go. Thanks!
Absolutely a great video, love the tutorial style, please keep it up! Subscribed and bought the plans!
The journey to building speakers seems quite exciting. Can't wait to do some tinkering of my own :) thanks for giving me a starting point and inspiration. Cheers.
Ok now that background music makes me feel like I'm watching Mr. Rodgers neighborhood LOL! Great video. Tons of good info...

HAHAHA YES! That just made my day! Thank you for watching!
....and this is the kind of video I was looking for. Very well explained, clean footage, funny. Thank you so much
I've been wanting to make one of my own Bluetooth speakers. Because I have a lot of old-school home stereo speakers. I have a set of very nice techniques 12 the mids and highs work great. On them they even have the medal fins that come down from the tweeters. So thank you so much Sir for making this video and providing the links of where to buy everything from.
man! what a beauty! congrats on the channel, edit, carisma, taste...... great, great job! cheers from brazil!
Your build videos are fun to sit and zone out on, but I do like seeing this format occasionally.
Great video! Thanks for linking to the boards you used, and clear explanation. Would love to see more "talkies" like this. :)
So freaking good so happy I found this channel !
You are great, I’m so doing this project, reusing my hi Fi speakers from the 00’s
Great video, really helped! I just subscribed and have been binge watching your videos. Just ordered everything for my first Bluetooth speaker build. Should be here Tuesday. I have some walnut and white ash in the garage that will be perfect.
Thank you for the quick and easy to understand video!☺️
Thanks for this video, it's one of the best I've seen explaining this in a really simple way. Now I'm wondering if I'm going to build a portable bluetooth speaker that can be both battery powered and can be connected to the wall, how a battery pack can be connected to this setup so it can work and charge the battery when connected?
I am so glad I watched your video!! I want to build my own bluetooth speaker now!
great lesson learned a lot from this vid . step by step visual an audio helped me a lot thank you
Nice video bro. This will give me an idea on how to use old speakers i havent thrown out. thanks man
Ok, Kerby. You now have my subscription! This was extremely entertaining and educational! I do like it very much! it was super educational! Also, I am amazed at how good you are at picking your video clips, you have some great shots.
wow thank you!!! i learned something important today:). very well explained
Great Vid brother, truly enjoyed it. I'll be using the info to build a banging speaker with my kids
Getting ready to build one for the bathroom house especially in the garage thanks for info dude
Super cool that little ta2024 version! Ouch! Unfindable in Italy :( Waiting me too for a battery version! Thank you Kirby! See u on Slack!
Thanks for the video and I'm going to try this myself thanks to you. I really appreciate the step by step made everything very easy to understand and made me want to make my own even more lol keep it up
This is the exact video I needed to see. Just getting ready to build my own Bluetooth Speaker. I'm looking at going with a 12v 7.0ah battery though that I have laying around. Keep making tutorial videos, you did a really good job.
Nice job! Thank you!
Great job explaining. I subscribed and the video helped a lot.
excellent really helpful and nice to watch how you make it too..
Great Video Kirby,thank you. Now sold on Ebay amplifiers that combine all of that on one Board. Also some have buttons for on and off,Volume control,Jumping tracks,TF Card,USB Reader,etc. I intend to order the Battery charger Board when in stock. Thanks for presentation.
Trying to do a bluetooth speaker for a customer right now. This was an excellent video; very helpful for the basics of wiring this up. Thanks dude!

thanks alot for the video bro as always very thorough explainations no one better.
This was super helpful, thanks!!
Great walkthrough, I recently purchased a dta-2 amp like you have shown and quite like it. Has there been any issues pairing it with the sure BT board and how it is wired? Tempted to take the plunge on the next build
you can also do a tda7492p, it does both amplification and bluetooth receiving. tough it has some faults at higher volumes, they can be fixed by using 24 volts..
This is very helpful. I'm trying to add a bluetooth receiver in my Haslab Proton pack. The receiver I bought isn't pushing enough sound through the 3 inch Dayton Audio speaker I just installed. Pack sound is great but I would like to figure this problem out.
Nice step by step man!!!
You are a awesome presenter....great job
Love the vid! Quick question, I'm trying to run a 2.1 bluetooth amp plus a mic amp, was wondering if I can power the mic amp the way you powered your audio amp into the DC inputs?
I want this kit. This so good
I've just liked and subscribed. Great video. God bless!
Hi, I really enjoyed this video and I learned alot from it! But i was wondering where you got the actual speaker from?
I like your simple explanations. Thanks for the video! Question for you, can I connect the Bluetooth device into a 1977 stereo receiver? I connected my iPhone to the receiver using an RCA (red/white) cable with 3.5 mm jack in the Tape deck input. Work pretty good. But to make it Bluetooth would really be better! Thanks!
Hi Kirby I like your videos specially like this one. Video you did with the JAb2 50w , do you have a video like that that explains all the connections. When I try to hook it up with just the batteries it doesn't work
I agree, nice video. I saw that you also had a link to a bluetooth amp. Will that bypass the need for the amp? Is it two in one?
Info is great, short video for essential info and that background music makes me anticipate that a Yoshi or Koopa will pop out 🤣🙌💛 okay, hands down, here's my like and subscribe for you.
Great vid!
i really like your build, do you got any knowledge of passive radiators and where to put them on your speaker?
This information was GREAT!!! Thank you, I hope to see more :)
Loved the new format. Would love to hear about how to pick drivers

Man, you make it so easy, i feel like my years of analog electronic studies was a waste of time! rs
Impressive Overview !
Great video. I'd like to do this build but with an additional aux in 3.5 jack in the unit to plug my guitar into while i stream a backing track via my iphone, something i can currently do with a little bluetooth unit i have. I have an antique radio carcass I'd like to do a build in with holes for 2 pots, and I'd like to light up the dial window with led's. Do you have a plan for a build like this?
really really good job.. all descriptions are working and you are the number one.. subbed.. i hope you can go ahead.. all the best! and thank you for your help :)

Wow, I love this video, great content all the way to the music in the background, yeah I hear ya, I used to do podcasts myself, that shout out about stuff you should know podcast really caught my ear, I'll check that out, I have interest in gwen tower related stuff.... Subscribed 5 stars man....
I like this video very informative. I'm trying to disassemble a old JBL pulse speaker it's not great sound quality, so DIY project to solder or rewire newer speakers and small MDF case lol. Just trying to figure what to do with it I mean I got it free years ago so it'll be my first project
Good and simple.
Love your sombrero! would you mind telling me where I can get one like it? Gracias!
I wonder how i can make two wireless speaker (one left and one right side)? I know some stuff about electronics but wireless is still new for me. Wifi, Bluetooth or propably FM? Thanks for your great content (and propably answer)!
Nice video really helpful... I have a sound bar and I'll try to put a Bluetooth... can you tell me Wich Bluetooth is better
You got another sub. :) I'm going to build something like this for an old old radio so we can play old music though it. Having the radio on sort of blows the moment.. you can't appreciate a 1940's radio when it's playing "anaconda".

legion2k thats cool im looking to build some radios around that same time frame converting them to bluetooth right now im working with a 1960s philco radio console that im turning into a bar
Very nice, enjoyed it. New Subscriber, looking forward to more from you. Many Blessings!
good video, well explained.
Great video! But how about ground loop? With one wall adaptor powering both Amp and Bluetooth ground loop is inevitable I guess. Do you have any tips on that?
This is amazing! I’m 13 years old and I made my own “Bluetooth to Aux” converter! 3D Printed a case, then I use it! I’m thinking of making more and selling it like a business! Thank you!🔊📢📲🔥🔥

Hey yeah is there a chance you have updated links? I can't seem to find any of these parts. Thanks!
I used your video for a speaker build using an a 50s era radio for a speaker box. It turned out great. I have one question for you. While the speaker sounds pretty good, it seems to miss the higher range of sound. For example, if I were to play the Beatles song Dear Prudence, there is pretty much no sound for the intro part of the song. Can I add a tweeter to improve the sound? Or do I need to wire a speaker to both the right and left speaker cirucits?
this is exactly what i need! thank you thank you thank you!

Loved it! i need some help with my old car speakers can we talk about it?
Thanks for the video! Really nice and simple!! Links added really help!!! But what if I want to connect to a stereo speakers (Left and Right)? I should probably use a stereo amplifier instead of the one used in the video... Witch one do you suggest? Could you please give a link for that too?? Thanks again :-)
Would like to see a step by step class d amplifier 300 to 600 watt . Everyone else does a poor job. Great video and tutorial. Liked and subscribed.
Please do this step by step video more often. I can't learn anything from the other types of videos.

thank for this video it rely help ... keep going and do more of this stuff .. .. and if you can .. can you build a big stereo box with the old USB computer speaker .. i real try to make it but it was bad ...-.-...
Great video .The volume pot i need has to be a bit longer.know where i couldnget one.?
How are you connecting the amp output to the single speaker so that you’re getting a mono downmix on the one speaker?
Way back in the late 80s & early 90s I installed car audio for a living. I recently had a friend buy a 2016 Ram Pickup, and he asked me to put two pairs of speakers in the bed. Running the wires is a royal headache , since there's a bed-liner in it. Is it possible to use blue tooth to skip that part of the install?
definitely helped thanks mang👍

Now that the Wondom Amp Line has come out, would you consider updating these plans? I ask since I am in the market for a BT Amp and didn't know if you think this one, or the new Sure one, would be a better place to start.
Well done young man.
will do thanks

The amp would need to have a left and right audio output
What would one have to do to get you to take a quick look at a possible speaker build. I just reeeally need help with how to connect it all, and I think its a pretty simple setup! Just need some guidance so i dont die and whats not ;) Thanks for the videos!

This helped a lot im trying to build my first bt speaker but i want to build something more powerfull maybe 500 watts battery powered but idk hoe to wire it does any1 have any tips?
This was my first plan with the build you've shared with us, adding 12V of Li-ion batteries would make it an awesome portable speaker. I suggest doing a tutorial for the most basic bluetooth portable speaker since those get a lot of views and your channel would grow even quicker. Thanks again for the plans, and a great video again. Hope you keep it up lad, cheers from Croatia :).

Cool video👍👍
do you have to run the blue tooth board in series with the amp or could you have a designated power splice coming from your power source that powers the amp and blue tooth speaker at the same time?
