    You went and hoop-a-jooped the tweeter domes! And then you ripped off the passive radiator. lol That "molded right in place" bit is a passive radiator, used in place of a port to tune the enclosure to a certain bass frequency. This allow the unit to sound like it has more bass response than it does, at the cost of accuracy. The stainless steel in that part is for rigidity in the passive radiator (if it's too flexible, it won't create an accurate acoustic wavefront [e.g. it will introduce distortion]).

    • @j-man72b72

      Breakup = added harmonics due to the dome resonating at unintended frequencies, the creases become weak points that act like hinges.
      once the driver it popped back out it will sound fine at low volume, but it will breakup at a lower volume than it did prior to it's abuse.

    A passive radiator (those stainless steel discs) is used in place of a tuned port, and functions in much the same way, resulting in an increase in dB at the tuning frequency, followed by a sharp rolloff below it. Advantages to a passive radiator design are no port turbulence ("chuffing"), and the ability to maintain water-tightness in outdoor designs. :)

    More info not in the video :
    Those rubber flat pieces with the ss on the back are passive radiators. They work similar to a port on a speaker box. The speaker that's powered acts as a piston with a spring behind it. The air in a port or a passive radiator acts as a second piston / spring. The port is tuned with its length and port area. Passive radiators are tuned by the springyness of the rubber around the middle thing, and the weight on it (hence the 304 shim stock disk). This tuning allows for the designer to boost the response (normally below the falloff of the main speakers).
    For the nerds that like to get in the weeds... A passive radiator has a 5th order drop off, a ported system has a 4th order drop off, and a sealed system has a 2nd order drop off (however you don't get that nice boost at the lower frequencies). Since a passive radiator is a 5th order it is less desirable but easier to change while designing (and probably easier to manufacture cheaply).
    Passive radiators don't require air pressure which is why it didn't work when opened up.

    @kokodin5895 7 лет назад +29

    passive membranes are tuned to the enclusure equivalent air capacity and to speaker resonanse to be half of the sine wave away from the speaker and move outside air 2 times more efficient in fact they use inside air as a delay line for the passive membranes so it would move in synch with the speaker, and metal weight is there only to increase mass and lower high frequency response
    the same efect is mostly used in bass reflex systems, but those use bigger enclosures and open holes.

    • @bryanwhitmore4446
      @bryanwhitmore4446 7 лет назад +4

      The air in the case is a capacitor for sound (and short delay line as you said). The mass and spring of the passive radiator make it an L-C oscillator 👍

    • @kokodin5895
      @kokodin5895 7 лет назад +6

      nope, the basics of acustics are simple. Front of the speaker cone generates souns in the oposite phase natn the back (front of the cone push the air while the back pull it, the reverseis also true) and if not for the enclosure , sound of the front and the back of the speaker could cancel each other out (in theory) if you trap the air on one side and calculate how long it would travel to the opening, or something else it could interact with, you can use it of amplyfi selected frequency range, mostly used with bass
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_reflex
      the basics might be simple, but the math behind it is fearsome :]

    • @mikewilson3169
      @mikewilson3169 7 лет назад +4

      kokodin, good explanation. Having built a number of speaker boxes, one of the first things I learned was it is important to know the optimum inside volume of the box for the optimum speaker sound production. The speaker driver manufacturer usually provides that spec. So AvE just demonstrated how, essentially, making the box volume infinite causes the speaker's performance to degrade.Not only does box volume affect decibels, it also affects sound quality. Also, if he listened to music carefully, he would hear a sort of fuzziness in the sound at certain frequencies. So, AvE, in switching the components to the Fein box, you will need to reduce that box's internal volume to match the Milwaukee box you discarded. I suggest some baffles cut from the Milwaukee box would do the trick.

    • @dushk0
      @dushk0 2 года назад

      @@kokodin5895 no, it's actually in between, the radiator is meant to be a resonator, just like the bass reflex, so basically it is a little delayed in phase, a reflection of the original wave but it is not opposite phase like the back of an open baffle (that would be phase cancellation, just like your explanation of the process). It also isn't about the time of sound travel - sorry but that's layman physics aka bro-science. The resonator resonates at a certain frequency and damps other frequencies. It's the mass of the air in the bass reflex (or equivalent mass) and the speed of sound (density) in the material that counts, and at some speeds it just doesn't work that well and at others it works closer to the ideal, as the air moves too fast to create enough pressure to get compressed - so the outer end of the tube acts like a piston. It is counter-intuitive and it's an approximation/a model, I also may have made some mistakes as I'm not all that well versed in physics (but hey, this is just basic stuff).

    The reason the crystal is way over to the other side of the uC, is to keep it away from the BT antenna.
    I was mesmerized when I saw the base amplifier diaphragm. Made of SS as to not generate EM from the magnetics of the magnets inside the adjacent speakers. Loved the EM shielding. Even the sound box design impressed me.

    TAS5766 really is a fabulous little part. Uses a high-end DAC internally (based on the old Burr Brown PCM1792 architecture.)
    Simple summary -- given the use of a TAS5766, the tweeters, mids and the additional passive radiator speakers... this should be a really nice box! Probably better than most bluetooth speakers!

    I2S has nothing to do with I2C. They only share the fact that they are both serialized buses, but that's it. I2S is a special serial bus used for SOUND (that's where the S comes from). It consist of three/four lines: serial clock, left right channel select clock (to indicate which channel is currently transmitting) and obviously, serial data, which sends the data. It's really simple and unidirectional, there's no addressing or anything. It has more in common with SCI/SPI than it has to I2C.

      Just what I was thinking. How it was like the marketing wank of yester year when "Tuned Ports" were all the rage. Serves a real purpose though as most speakers (unenclosed) are usuall strongest around 4-5 khz and emphasizing the bass and treble do tend to help balance it out. If anyone is really interested in this google up Pink Noise and how to play it through your system to set your EQ for a flat response -- This is what studios do and gives you the most 'accurate' sounding music.

      Yes and no - while passive radiators do indeed act virtually like a port, as far as the (active) speaker is concerned, you don't have the "wasted volume", as it were, that a port would be. You can thus get a similar amount of bass extension and dB as you would with a port, but in a smaller overall volume.

      Some of these "theories " got me in a loop!
      It's behaves like a ported enclosure for less internal volume.
      That's all a passive radiator design does.
      Effieciency same as ported.
      Output same as ported.
      Smaller enclosure required compared to ported.

    The enclosure is a good 90% of your sound with any stereo system. I've been to competitions where $200 speakers completely killed $1000 speakers running at comparable wattage. The difference was a professional built enclosure vs a (real) professional built enclosure.

  • @VestraPater
    @VestraPater 6 лет назад +1

    We always just used to call those "air diaphragms", but they're really called "passive radiators", or "drone cones". They increase the effective surface area of the woofer, and decrease overextension of the woofer when producing very deep pitches, effectively getting around the size constraints of ported woofers, which need to be very specific, and typically large, dimensions to achieve proper resonance. The opposite tends to be true of sealed enclosure woofers, besides the very specific dimensions, but the trade-off is you tend to need higher wattages. Passive radiators are a very effective way of improving frequency response in a smaller form factor, without obscene wattages, or complicated resonance tuning. With passive radiators, one only needs to match the surface area of the actual woofer to the drone cone, so resonance tuning becomes much easier. Klipsch has used some designs like this. Small woofer, mid-range, and tweeter in the front, then a drone cone on the back. I had a set like that back in the day, and those fuckers could fucking chooch for as small as they were. Mom's big ass 1980s ported Pioneers didn't hold a candle.

    I^2 S works on the same principle as I^2 c but is optimized specifically for digital audio. it can carry something like 8 audio channels per data line. the I^2 c sill be only for controlling the settings on the audio IC stuff like bit rate and io.

      I believe you are correct. IIC is definitely a control type protocol. If I remember correctly it was developed by Philips in Eindhoven over 30 years ago. I still have some of the application notes for it including how to make it work over distances up to 1km that are just not publicly available any more.

    • @SianaGearz
      @SianaGearz 7 лет назад +17

      There's pretty much nothing in common between i2s and i2c, other than both being serial buses! In fact i2s looks a lot more like SPI.
      I2C is a multi-node bus, where you just hang every device on, and every message starts with address, so each device knows when it's spoken to. It also has a pretty bloated message format as a whole. Another i2s trick is that any device can suspend the common clock to say "oh wait, i'm not listening", which means, nobody can be listening. Corresponding is the electric design, where somewhere at one point the bus has an unusually staunch pull-up, because on all those potentially hundred of i2c devices, the leakage to ground can add up. You wouldn't use i2c for sound because there's no good way to limit jitter, and then the 400 KHz nominal specified clock isn't all that hot either.
      I2S is just sound shifted out bitwise, with a sample clock and a bit clock, and you read or emit it with a shift register, nothing could be simpler. The sample clock allows the devices not to be know how many bits per sample the other device supports, and serves as a jitter control point. I2S is widely used for communicating with DACs and ADCs that run on a stable clock. It's used in a point to point manner, though if you wanted to feed a bunch of DACs the same data, you can do that.
      The naming is perhaps similar because they come from within the same company, Philips Semiconductors. The confusion is not uncommon, because almost every sufficiently advanced soundchip will implement both i2s and i2c, with i2s being for sound and i2c being for setting the mixer/amplification and reconstruction filter settings, and the like, no sound there. Standards you'll find in a PC like earlier AC97 and current HD Audio are based on i2s sound bitstream (with lots of channels and high clock rate) and i2c query and control protocols, even if they will not usually be mentioned by name because that's the property of NXP, and those phones that don't have an audio CODEC in their SoC also use i2s to communicate with CODECs.

    • @overkillaudioinc

    • @GigAnonymous
      @GigAnonymous 7 лет назад +3

      I2S and I2C has nothing in common, but otherwise you're spot on. It's pretty common for peripheral to use I2C for signaling and another system with higher bitrate for the data. Here it's I2S because it's sound, but you'll also find CMOS cameras using SPI, etc.

    • @sickboi11111
      @sickboi11111 7 лет назад

      Great comment! Very succinct.
      What I think you have referred to as the sample clock, is usually called the bit clock, and what you have referred to as the bit clock is often called the frame clock.
      A good example of this nomenclature can be found in the 'datasheet' for common DSPs such as Analog Devices 14XX series: www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/ADAU1442_1445_1446.pdf
      I2s circuit architecture can use these two clock lines alone, but some hardware setups will also include a shared master clock between ICs in order to try and mitigate the jitter problem. This is common where a DSP and CODEC by a vendor will run at the same rate such as 24MHz. i2s data streams are often 32bits per frame, even for a 24bit signal. The last bits are often truncated by the receiving device in standard modes like 24bit.

You can get an old Sansui for 200buckaroos, and after something like six hours of removing its old caps and resistances, buying new ones,soldering them in and adjusting a few things you get sound quality you would have to pay ten thousand buckaroos at least if you wanted a brandnew amplifier... Except that sansui will last forever, looks cool and is built like an aluminium tank. Prosumer audio gear is mostly awful thesedays.

    The bridged connection on the chip is almost certainly because the pins go to the same place, probably ground. When I do reflowing at home with chips that have two pins that are grounded they'll often just bridge together and that's fine. The even temperature across both pins from being connected to one big plane of copper makes them flow together when being reflowed.
