That speaker looks amazing

Happy to see you back! It's time to up your game thiugh... I'm talking transmission line speaker build!

I love your stuff. I'm thinking of both doing more video work and starting to build speakers (nice combo of woodworking and electrical tinkering). Thank you for posting all your tools as well as your productions tools, super useful!

Keep on building

Quality is getting better I see 👍🏼👍🏼 I'd like too see a three way floorstand speaker. Keep it up!! And welcome back

Love the build vids and learning please do some more build plans! I am waiting on plans for the dual bookshelfs you built. Keep up the great work!

Loved the video and I’m so glad you’re back. I was scared you were gone for good for some reason! For your next project I’d love to see a Transmission Line or Bass Horn. I’m told they both can do things that are nearly magic, and the enclosures can be really unique and fun. They’re fascinating designs, but a little more complex. I haven’t come across anyone on KZread that seems to really understand or get into the basic theory or simulators. Plus I really want to hear your take on how they truly, actually compare to more common vented enclosures. Does the added complexity really add anything to the sound? The same driver in a good bass reflex and then a good TL/Horn in a comparison would be amazing.

I’d love to see you make a transmission line setup or perhaps a 6th order bandpass box. Think you’d knock it outta the park with those woodworking skills

Hey Kirby, love the woodworking stuff. Great editing too. Still waiting on the 3 way towers, maybe dual 8 inch woofers, a 6 inch or so midrange, and an aluminum tweeter?

I'd love a shop/tools tour if you'd like to try a different type of video ( be interesting if you could bring your build style filming and editing over to that type of video). You've made it sound like you live an apartment, townhouse or duplex so that's why I'm curious about your shop. Maximizing space and not needing a massive custom shop. Anyways, thanks for the content, awesome job as always!

brother I done diploma with machinist. making gear and other with lathe and milling machine .... I saw that your work so accurate with use precision instruments

Would love to see a build with AMT tweeters and also build with coaxials

Could u show also the eletronics part i know that u had specific videos of that but what i want to see is the result of the diferent speaker builds

Sure wish you would add a sound demo to the speakers that you make, thx😎

Sweet build! I've not yet tried a speaker build, but on my list to do soon. Do you have a kit for this speaker (I didn't see on your site)? Other than the wood, can you share what components you used, including the fabric over the speaker - really nice touch!

Beatiful!!!!

Big thumbs up for what you are doing with this channel. Your skills are impressive. I’ve learned a lot from your videos and you have inspired me to craft my own stuff. Keep up the good 👍🏻

Hey Kirby! Great build video. Are you going to do another video with a sound test of this speaker?

Hey man. Happy 2019! Are you offering plans for this speaker?

Profesjonalista 👏👍👏💥💥🔥

Hey, Kirby! Just found your channel and I definitely dig it! I have a question. I want to run the audio from my low-budget hi-fi vinyl setup across my house to another room, without having to hardwire it and run cable throughout. What would you recommend for transmitting/receiving it wirelessly? Thanks for any info you can give!

How do you connect one tweeter and two mid-range/bass speakers to stereo amplifier. Just from one chanel or something else?

Great video man!! I love your channel!! Keep doing that! Vasi, România (Europe), 😁👍

Looking forward to another video

ok looks super cool, but how is that wired with a single tweeter for both channels or did I miss something?

I'd love to see a hifi center speaker, or a full 7.1 hifi cinema system

I really love to see the building process of your speakers man, they are great, it's just that I don't find really necessary to include footage out of focus and with low light cuz it distract a little bit from the beauty of the process

You should build a really cool spaceship design, and make it a portable subwoofer

Nice one bro!

Thanks for another great video! Questions: your front baffle fits in the frame pretty tightly. Do you have to worry about wood movement? Also, what type of finish are you using? Thanks!

It'd be very interesting to see how you would approach transparent acrylic speakers building. Something maybe like a small factor 2.1 system for computer use ? I think it's very different from what you usually do so it makes it interesting ! :)

Subscribed. Love your videos man. I hope I have the tools to start building box too. I only have speakers and wood.

Kirby I have a question. I'm building a Bluetooth speaker currently with 2 3s lipo batteries wired in series and I have a relay connected to an LED Halo push button switch because obviously the led switch can't handle the amps but my question is if I solder two wires into the negative and positive of the battery before the relay can I plug that into a charger without having to disconnect it from the relay. Main reason is I want to seal my box and not have to remove the batteries everytime they need a charge

what fabric do you use for the speakers

Nice

Does anyone know if you can combine woofers of differnt ohms in the same speaker, ie a 6" 4 ohm woofer and a 2" 8 ohm tweeter?

brother I subscribed your channel and I like your earrings and love your skill😄😄😄😄😆

What a beautiful BT speaker! I hope you put all four screws in the two woofers and not only two! 😊 And... Did you fix the tweeter only by pressure or by applying some glue?

Big fan of you your work. Would you mind going through how you wire a two channel amp with the 3 drivers? Do you use one channel for the woofers (8 ohm each in parallel) and the second channel for the tweeter (at 4 ohm)? Keep up the great work!!

Nice! Is that a chamfer bit in the router?

This is so cool. Sorry if I’m missing something. Is there a parts list somewhere?

Can you explain about Zobel Network?

Hope you had a good time off

Welcome back. Any chance you could do a build on a sound bar, but have it be a box that the tv can sit on?

That was probably the sexiest Woodworking videos i've ever seen

Please buid a passive floorstand speaker, maybe with a 8" bass on its side, something like the "VOX200" but in cheaper. :-)

Hi I would really like to have a go at building this for myself. Please can you tell me where I can download/ get the plans please. It’s literally the prefect Bluetooth speaker I’m after. Cheer Greg

Hey kirby. Just found you from another DIY bluetooth speaker video. I do have a question. I'm planning out a bluetooth/wifi google assistant sound reactive led cloud, you know one of those led clouds that got popular a few years back. Well so far I've got arduinos uno wifi rev2 plus the 2x50w dayton audio amp both somehow connecting to the raspberry pi from a google aiy kit. I feel like this is a bit too complicated. Any input?

I am curious is this speaker in dual channel? how was it wired ? was not sure how two mid-range speakers and 1 tweeter is wired and if it's in true stereo

Hey Kirby I wanted to know do you have a kit for doing wood cigar boxes Bluetooth speaker this will be my first build and I want to repurpose my cigar boxes any help will greatly appreciated

Hi kirby, what kind of amp are you using for this? How many channels? Is the tweeter on a mono channel and/or the woofers in stereo?

@Azmodan911

5 жыл бұрын

Most likely the speaker is a 2-way with a crossover inside. 2 4-ohm woofers in series, and an 8-ohm tweeter.

Hello Kirby, I have a question. Do you calculate your baffles, to have the right dimensions for exact speakers, to get the best sound, or you just make baffle dimensions as you personally like without any calculation? Anyway I love your videos, it's super relaxing and the woodwork is just beautiful :) Thank you :)

Depends on the build. When i'm building speakers for critical listening situations with a big budget, everything is calculated, modeled, and tweaked. If i'm building a fun bluetooth speaker, sometimes form is more important to me. Just do what works for you. Thanks for watching!

Hi, i need a help. I have a Tda 7492 audio module 50w and i had connected to two 3 way coaxial speakers connected via speaker connectors, was playing music good via Bluetooth, suddenly stopped, i thought speaker got issue, but later i checked with aux port working fine, no issue with speakers, i think the problem with speaker connectors, i tried many times removing the speaker connection from connectors and connecting again but no fix, but works with aux port. I don't know whats the problem is, can you help me to sort this out.

Hi Kirby, really like your videos. Can I ask you which camera do you use , and which type of video editor ?

During a prototype of my speaker build, I tried a fabric cover for the speakers, I had the problem of the fabric vibrating to much and producing a hum. I had it pretty tight, but I ended up choosing a nicer looking driver for my final build, so I trashed the cover idea entirely.

@KirbyMeetsAudio

5 жыл бұрын

Yeah, you have to be carful with using fabric in this way. You cant let the fabric rest against the speaker cone surround, you need to choose a driver that has some sort of lip (or create your own) that will hold the fabric away from the cone. Thanks for watching!

Hi, if i please you, you can send me the measurements of the panels? Please. I want to make one too.😘

I know you have done something in the past but I would love a walkthrough of a speaker build step by step. I purchased the Fawn speaker plans over a year or more ago and have yet to even start the build because the wiring and crossover setup is intimidating.

Instant sub man. Amazing work. You have inspired me to never buy a speaker ever again.

i can please paste the link to your community hear please

Please build stand for ps4 game boxes

Hi kirby, some beautiful craftsmanship. You should totally check out Beocreate on instagram, they are all about this kind of stuff. Maybe a Beocreate project in the future?

i am totally confused by this video.. how can there be two woofers and one tweeter in a stereo config ?

Following for awhile and my boss finally gave to go ahead to get parts to build a Bluetooth speaker to add to our website. Just your website doesn’t seem to up.

Looking for a how to...

Hey Kirby...can you make a big powerful ,portable Bluetooth speaker?

woodprix has very useful instructions with all details I need

Hi, just subsribed via email, and it seems, that plans are not there, could you check it for me please :) investice

I think you think we enjoy the cinematography of you building a speaker but honestly prefer a meat and potatoes showcase of the build or maybe I'm just a "skip the talking and get to the details" type of guy. I like the video but it would be nice to show the actual build of the crossover, the wiring connection of the Amp, etc. Yes there are other KZreadrs doing this but you are easy to understand.

you shouldn't be using so much oil, just a little bit will do you just need to rub it out really much it will safe you some time.

Cool build but the title is misleading. Where is the "how to" part? No explanation of what your putting into the build.

There are projects on how to do this on the Stodoys website.

why not show the finished piece? video ends with talking and face.

My adventure with woodworking started with Stodoys.

build something bigger...

Ordered mine from you and never got it. $249 down the drain.

Scanned through the DIY playlist, watched 10 or so videos with the word "build" or "DIY" in its title. Lots of talk, lots of B-roll, no actual instructive, step by step build guide. He's like a chef that explains things, cooks, but when he's cooking, he's more interested on giving us food porn.

These are all the same. You already have enough videos of you building without audio. I find these very repetitive. If you explained what you are doing they would at least be informative.
