I was interested in this topic as a young man in the 90s and went to libraries reading all books about speaker building. In english (I am from austria) You explained everything there is to know in one video.. Simply amazing!

she sounds thrilled to be there!! lol😆😂

I think it was an awesome way to present this, educating your cousin instead of a plain old speaking to camera piece. Great video

I love these videos. I see all this technology put to use in the final product but I've never seen anyone explaine the thought process in such an easy to understand method. It's like if you aren't a sound engineer you really don't understand what these guys are talking about. You just know whatever they did made the sound better. It's almost like your giving away away proprietary secrets, but your not. Your just explaining how a lot of this proprietary technology is implemented. And I'm absolutely fascinated by it. Thanks for the video. Keep making them.

I found out by myself how a loudspeaker works when I was four years old... It's really intuitive when you have a basic idea of magnetism and that a coil can be used as a variable magnet. Which my dad explained to me very early on. Of course the coil will be attracted or repelled by a magnet when you push current through it, and I figured that's how it makes sound. That sound comes from vibrating surfaces is something you just instinctively know. So loudspeaker design is something that is extremely easy to get into, but it's hard to master - things like complex impedance, phase, resonance, directivity, those aren't so easy to digest (even though it still isn't rocket science).

Great way of describing the concepts at work to new folks not familiar, and trying to understand! Well Done!

It was so cool to use the concept of a young person that likes going to concerts and enjoy music but never even thought about how it all works. I could tell that she took away something from this experience that she will never forget and may even be considered among her friends the sound guru. We all love music and some of us love good sounding music, unfortunately only a few of us can tell the difference. A few more visits with you, she will be among the few who knows the difference and wouldn't settle for anything less. We all are benefitting from your expertise.

Ok

Nicely done! Good explanation of different types of drivers and their basic application. I’ve always found it interesting that loudspeakers are one of the few devices that are electrical, mechanical and acoustical all in one device.

This is a great video to show someone who doesn't know much about speakers, good job

I love how you used waves in a pool as analogy for how sound is air wiggling! You csn really understand how, if you make waves at one end of the pool, the waves can hit someone at rhe other end - but it doesn't mean the water is actually being moved away to the other end, it's just waving. Awesome video. Next, I'd like to understand how speaker cabinets work, and what design gets you better (or worse) sound!

This was a really cool video. Going slowly and repeating concepts to settle the understanding was good teaching technique. Learned some things.

Excellent video! As always! Congratulations!

This was a really nice intro to how speakers work.

I kept thinking about all the things he didn't say -- and realised how good of decision that was for this video.

Really nice approach to teaching, keep doing that great work.

Nicely explain how it works ..am much fascinated by speakers specially the loud once...awesome.

Love to see young ones getting educated by people who care! Real world knowledge

thank you so much. very well explained!

I took a class years ago. It was an electronics class but speakers were discussed in part of it. I was taught that the actual speaker component is called a transducer and the speaker is the entire assembly. I took this class so long ago, it was long before the days of line arrays.

Good job. I was a photography professor and taught lighting in a similar fashion. Not everyone can teach, but you've got the gift.

Hi bro I like ur videos very much .. ur doing great job.. I'm using pro audio drivers for home hifi. am I right ? As far as ur concerne if yes then which one brand I use for that? If not then what is the reason?? I want to use 18inch driver for bass one midrange & horn plz guide.. thank you 😊

I worked at a nightclub years ago, and it was awful, yes, they had lots of speakers, lots of amplifiers, lots of crossovers, equalisers etc They had three banks of six 18inch subwoofers, i think they were in bandpass style boxes, they had three mid and tweeter arrays hanging from the ceiling But the best sound was downstairs near the subwoofers I went into the amplifier room, and counted 30,000 watts of power output The problem was, they had an upstairs, and the tweeter/mid arrays were pointing outwards from the centre, and they were aimed straight at the mezzanines, so whej you were upstairs, all you could hear was deafening high pitch sounds They could have done with extra subwoofers upstairs to balance the sound Then they could have done with turning the overall volume down, as upstairs it seemed like they were running full volume, and it sounded horrible and distorted They had a few 6 inch monitor speakers around some balconies, and even they were running full volume, so bad, you could see sparks coming out the casings and the bass drivers were flashing from the amount of power they were forcing into them Absolutely horrible experience I got my own sound system at home, 4kw going through eight 15inch subwoofers in full range cabinets, with horn tweeters, i never run them full volume, and that sounds a hell of a lot better than that nightclub did, no distortion whatsoever

cool video :)

Oh wow

Hmmm, mmhumm, yeah, uhuh... And then at 6:45 she drops a hint of mad skillz of instrumental/acoustical knowledge. Reminds me the night when I was trying to explain quantum mechanics in a simplistic way to a girl, 10 mins later to find out she worked at Fermilab.

Years ago, I went to a Pat Benatar concert!!, got to meet her as well !, very nice woman !, and very personable, but the comment I want to make is that I was able to talk with her audio crew and found out that each stack array was putting out over 35,000 watts of power, RMS !!, and the 8 stacks of subs, 4 stacks per side was putting out 10,000 watts rms of bass !, each stack!!, just thought you might like to know how much power is produced for a large concert!!

Bass always requires more power which is probably why it has longer range meaning it covers more distance.. As far as wattage is concerned, our teacher told us that a 100 watt amp is only twice as loud as a 10 watt amp, so basically the calculation is that if you want to double the volume/loudness, you have to multiply the wattage by 10 (not 2)

Where is part 2 of that?

what an explanation..

Wow,

"How to choose speakers " will be a nice topic.......i know that i should choose it by SPL and not Watts

Two major aspects are never addressed by manufacturers: the clarity and intelligibility of high power bass. The quality of the result is ensured by separate transducers for the bass drum and the bass guitar, possibly for the low frequencies of the keyboards. No matter how good the research, this fundamental aspect is overlooked, while it makes all the difference between a clean sound and a crap sound.

Loudspeaker basics in under 10 seconds Go to store with the intention of spending a grand. Arrive home with very large, heavy speakers and boxes after spending 10 grand. Lie to wife. She points her elbows out. You sleep on couch, find lawyer, move out. She gets the speakers, you get the payments.

That's how I'd explain to my grandma. She died 30 years ago. Or to a 10 year old. But to a 20 year old fresh from the school? And she says Wooooaaaa! No, it's me who says: whooooooaaaaa; how ignorant can you get!? BTW it's explains very well, very plastic and descriptive.
