For approximately $80 plus the cost of wood and a few other parts, you can build yourself a set of budget 2-way stand mount speakers that will blow everything else available off the shelf away. These speakers are as good with music as they will perform in a home theatre setup, and will perform equally well as near-field monitors. Soundstage and imaging is excellent and the vocals are very neutral with a clear high end that is detailed and will not become fatiguing over time. Put them on solid speaker stands and they will give you a solid bass response that is not boomy and sounds just right.

The Dynamites are the second speakers I’ve built from your collection. They sound brilliant! Your crossover is spot on. I really enjoy your channel. 👏
Glad you like them! Thanks for the support!
When you really design the xover to get a flat response and the components use are meant for xover.
I used that tweeter as a replacement for some vintage speakers where the tweeters had failed in multiple ways. The speaker sounds great and can get loud without being harsh. It's original midrange driver helped with that, having no break up until 8k which is much higher than what it would be crossed over at.
These speakers would be great for a room or office. I heard some nice mids and lows. They look professional as well. Well done!
Thanks!
Congratulation for these two little jewels, they sound gorgeous through my Hegel H80 and Dali Zensor 3
Thanks man!
They look amazing and surely sound so aswell! Thumbs up!
As I am new to this but am really keen on learning more about it, I would be really interested about the electronics you put inside of the speakers and to what their purpose is and how they work. Is there a video where you explain how that works and how to build something like it?
Even from video i can tell these sound really good.
Thanks
Absolutely Amazing Sound.
Thanks
Sounds so pure...great job👏
Thanks
Very clean and beautiful build! I love it. 🥰
Awesome! Thank you!
thanks, these woofers certainly have a good performance so I think my little speakers will play wonderfully
🤙🏻
As usual Perfectly handcrafted !
Thanks man!
OMG !! These sound Fantastic !! Would love to see a Budget Home Theater Build using these Woofers. Keep up the great work Man. I'm now subscribed !
Thanks
Amazed with sound test.. Superb 😎
Thanks
I built the Overnight Sensations and I agree to your comment about how good that little 4" driver is in producing bass and clean audio.
dude help, what are the parts for the crossover?
@@danielkanaszyk485you can google it "overnight sensations crossover"
Beautiful build!
Thank you!
Wonderful creation!
Thanks
Excellent work!
Thank you 😊
Excellent work!!!!. Greetings from Mendoza Argentina
Thank you very much!
Clean sound like B&W.
Please do a video on Cross over making which was used in this video.
Quality as always!
Thanks!
Hi, I am not a speaker builder, but I always wondered why people don't cut panels openings for drivers and terminal panel first? If you make mistake you only wasted one board instead of already glued speaker box. At least he cuts drivers openings before gluing, but then cuts terminal panel opening after gluing the back panel. Why?
Very nice. I bought 4 of these HIVI B4N woofers. I'll be doing a TMM using a pair of Seas 27TF
Nice!
Very nice finish man.
Thanks
Sounds amazing 🤗
Thanks
Cracking looking build! just getting into DIYhifi and would love to build these one day!
Thanks
A very nice and perfect work.
Thank you very much!
Outstanding.
Thanks
Wow brilliant
Thanks
Sir i love them your the best great descisions choices makes sense they sre all that yu need
Thanks
Very cool of you introducing some of the design methodology this time as well. They look great, cheers
Thanks man
Excelente proyecto. Saludos.
Thanks!
Wow, very cool build
What amplifier do you use?
Thanks. For the sound demo I used an IOTAVX SA3.
@@SoundBlab Thanks Bro
Have to admit, these sound very nice. Low end is surprisingly good. Having bought the parts for DIY "speedsters" I have my doubts now :)
Thanks. The speedsters will be very good as it uses higher quality drivers that are much more expensive IMO. I think you will be happy with their sound in the end. More high end than budget, which is the difference in the end between the two. It's all about value for money, and I think you will get very good value from the speedsters if you pair them with good equipment.
@@SoundBlab Appreciate your answer. Yes, I'm planning to pair them with a decent amp, a vintage Pioneer A-717 (it drives my other speakers without issues - Canton Ergo DC -100) so it shouldn't be a problem
Looks I'm going to be building some speakers. Better get the plans on order .
Agreed
amazing! could you maybe consider building some line array speakers maybe 5 inch drivers. cheers
Planning a line array, but it will be a bit different from the norm...
Awesome 👍🏻😉
Very nice
Thanks
cute little speakers
Thanks
Awesome 😍
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome 👌
Thank you! Cheers!
Man, I fucking love this channel! those speakers are amazing.
Thanks
Absolutely Brilliant 👏
I'm definitely going to try and build these. They look and sound beautiful very well done!
Very fond of your videos bro
Thanks
VERY ! Nice !
Thanks man!
Lovely design and build. I really like the Overnight Sensations but always thought the tweeter was a letdown with just how good the HiVi drivers are. The Peerless is a much better match.
Thanks so much!
Good brother from India
Thanks
Awesome
Thanks
Top notch build quality! Fortunately I have both units, I may try this near future. Thanks!
Thanks. Go for it!
very interesting, thanks for sharing. I've never built a crossover. where is the crossover info regarding the process? Thanks!
Please make a detailed video for a 3 way bass reflex bookshelf speakers including details on its 3 wway crrossovers..
Nice billed , I am looking for a LS50 wireless clone with a similar coax driver . That would be a tempting project. I travel a lot for work and would like a small hi end portable aktiv speaker 🔈👍🏻
You r amazing
Thanks!
Clean sound, very nice. Anyone knows the title of the 1st song?
Top !
Thanks
I bought the plans. I need some speakers for watching movies via projector. From almost infinite projects on the internet this one caught attention. The plans are very precise and looks like from HiFi audio magazine. Very nice concept. I cant wait to start building it and to hear it. I expect to build also subwoofer in the future. They are not entirely budget since its around 23euro plans, 200euros for speakers and crossover + 30 euro wood and another 30 euro for surface and 20 for sound dampening + terminals. Just to be aware that things changed. Im very curious if its gonna sounds better than Edifier S360DB what is very close competition.
Thanks for your support! These are great little speakers, I am sure you will enjoy listening to them. Yes, prices of components have risen in the last few years, but I think you will still end up with a better speaker than you can buy off the shelf, and be able to say that you have built them yourself 😊
Awesome built congratulations. I have a small request can you build a 2.5 way tower as the next project.
Thanks. I plan my builds way in advance, so it might not be the next project, but I can add it to my list of future projects.
@@SoundBlab HiVi has unique sound signature ---- so natural mids , most organic bass not like over power fake bass ......
I personally like HiVi F6 or F8 especially ..... And finally I decided to build with F6 ... Which is available in india .... With HiVi Sd1.1A tweeter .....
ruclips.net/video/8UiJ50iBEck/видео.html
See how F6 sounds .....
ruclips.net/video/bON-YhgTP4c/видео.html
My personal recommend please make 2 way with. F6/F8 ......
If u have more bass in sound use F8 on 1.2cf box
Sounds good
nice build, as always, I wonder how important the brace is though, doesn't hurt of course, but for such a small enclosure and driver with that thickness of MDF I don't think it is necessary.
Thanks. Brace probably not that crucial, but the this driver can push quite low, so I wanted to make sure.
@@SoundBlab thanks for the measurements of rounded vs straight corners, I heard about it but I don't think I ever saw actual measurements. I use something in between for my designs.
Sure 👍🏻. Small drivers on larger baffles will show more variation, but for this narrow baffle, the difference is inaudible.
great project. I am inspired and subscribed. You left them without any damping resonance material inside?
Thanks! Can't remember, but I would definitely have put something inside. I always do, perhaps I did not show it...
Great job, nice little speakers with awesome sound and nice woofers, i really wanted for my 4 woofer +1 Tweeter DIY Center Channel build.
Are using 2.1 setup with Sub or 5.1 setup ?
Is BASS coming from a Sub or speakers itself?
Can you teach us how to DIY CROSSOVERS please(or maybe site from where to lern)? Thanks.
Thanks. No sub, just the two speakers playing of a stereo amp.
I love your channel and I am now subscribed. I admire the craftsmanship in all your projects could you please provide links for speaker and tweets in this build. If possible currency in Rands please.
Thanks man! All the links are in the description. Unfortunately prices are in the currency of the particular online shop. None of these parts are available locally in SA.
Hermoso
Thanks
Do you prefer a U-shaped sound or an even response? The mids seem a bit cold, but I guess that is probably just the second-hand listening through a video effect.
I usually prefer a slight U-shape, but this one it pretty flat. It is not that cold in reality, and sounds quite balanced. Even though I normally prefer U-shape, I tune each speaker to where I feel it sounds best. This does not always result in a U-shape response though.
Hi, what are the external dimensions of these speakers? I'm trying to decide between these and the Overnight Sensation speakers which use the same woofer. I love the look of yours. I suggest putting dimensions in the description as they can be an important deciding factor.
(W x H x D): 160 mm x 269 mm x 222 mm
Can I ask the name of the gold tool you use please to start your hole?
Nice Video very well done and explained helps new diyers like me to understand better. Had a question how would you compare to your 3 way omnidirectional build
Especially on the bass front and pressuring the room
Thanks! The bass output of both is more or less the same in terms of being able to load the room (as long as room is medium sized). But in the end I prefer what I hear overall from the Dynamites.
@@SoundBlab wow didn’t expect that. Thanks for the reply your input helps
Like one user requested a good nice line array and a superb BoomBox builds will be fun
For boom box something like a 2.1 or 2.2 using powerful Wondom dsp amps
I have a line array build coming up later this year. Stay subscribed to check ot out 😉
@@SoundBlab end of the year is too long I don’t know if I will live that long with the cases coming in my country
Sounds great..can i use hardwood on the front? Or it will affect the sound?
Thanks. Yes you can.
What is the 1sr port resonance frequency? Can you hear it at all?
Great video - i'm going to buy the plans. What crossover parts do you use and where did you get them? Is that in the plans?
Thanks! The plans are comprehensive and includes a list and links to all parts for the US and EU.
What is Total cost to build this(only logistics price)??
😮 Excellent sound, just impressive!!! ❤️
Nice sound quality. What recorder did you use?
Thanks. I sometimes just use a Zoom H1, but this time I used two Behringer ECM8000 mics and an ART USB Dual Pre preamp.
Why didn't you mount the crossover components on a nice pcb?
Hi, I have the same milling machine (Triton/CMT 7E) but I don't understand what kind of "adapter" (which is not supplied) you used to make the circular cuts.
Many thanks for all your help
I got the plate that attaches to the bottom of the router as a package. The circle jig function is built into the plate.
@@SoundBlab I can't imagine how! could you send me a picture please: imistoria@gmail.com
many thanks
Love your channel!! I'd like purchase from you plans for a portable bluetooth speaker, however a bit bigger than you built. Is anything like that coming any time soon in your videos. Thank you. Regards
Thanks. When you say bigger, what did you have in mind exactly?
@@SoundBlab I'd like to have more bass, so I've been thinking about x1 woofer, x2 midrange and x2 tweeters. To accomodate x5 drivers the enclosure need to be a bit bigger than for example your portable retro style boombox(which I very much like), however at the same time portable :) Please let me know if you have something like that in your mind. Thank you for your reply. Regards
I dont jave anything like that planned, but can look into ot for the future.
hello friend, I'm about to start a bookshelf project with these 4" woofers and I would like to know if in the video there is a subwoofer playing with the speakers or the sound is coming only from the bookshelf? thanks
only the bookshelves
Superbe le disgin ainsi que la finition son magnifique
merci
they are sweet looking small size modern look. why dont u start sellin them. there is a big market for budget speaker that look amazing like yours
Thanks. I wish I had the time to take on such a venture. Maybe one day in the future.
How can i get the frd and zma file of that hivi speakers. Please reply.
I want to build the same can you guide ?
Sir,hide ur wires bellow the TV. then it will look more neat.🙂🙂
I’ve just moved into a new house, so after I have painted the walls etc. I can get to those small details. It’s not important right now.
Does it delivered in India too
Super 👍 which amplifier are you using
Thanks! Amp is the IOTAVX SA3 - www.iotaenterprises.co.uk/products/iotavx-audiophile-stereo-amplifier-sa3
Hi sir. Looking for the plans on soundblab for this speakers, can´t corroborate that specs for the crossover are included in the item that describes build plan. Are this specs (crossover) included?
Hi, all the details are included in the plans, cut list, parts, crossover parts and layout. The plans are very comprehensive in details.
for where i should buy this build
may i ask which colour you used for the enclosure?
As always a really beautiful build
Thanks. I think it is a machine grey. Not sure of the brand of paint though.
@@SoundBlab thanks a lot for your quick answer
They look nice, but how much watts of power they have? Can you measure that?
Thanks. I would rate these to handle around 50W (RMS). These might look small, but they definitely go more than loud enough for your average size room.
i am planning to build something very similar but maybe with slightly different drivers how would i calculate the watts needed for the speakers and how would i find a good amp for them, also im planning on buying a premade crossover. how would i figure out what watts for amp and would it matter if the tweeter is different wattage to the woofer?
also is it ok if both the tweeter and woofer are 8 ohms?
How do you determine the depth of the box?
I bought the plan a while ago and I want to start building them, but I'm unsure of the amp board I want to use. Is the Arylic up2stream 2.1 a good choice or does it lack the power? Could you help me with some advice?
Hi, awesome! The Arylic 2.1 will have more than enough power to drive these, and you can then also add a sub to fill in the low end a bit. However, these have pretty good bass for its size.
Does the plan include the list of specific crossover components?
Yes, the plans are comprehensive and includes parts list and purchase links.
Hi, Can you tell me how big volume is of each box? It looks nice, if this are not to big I will make them.
Hi, the dimensions are on the description of this page: soundblab.net/product/the-dynamites-2-way-budget-stereo-speaker-build-plan/
Hello,what i the impedance of the woofer 8 or 4 ohm,the tweeter seems 4ohm??
friendly redards
Lex
The woofer is nominal 8 ohms
im cannot find information regarding the crossover filter.. what components should be used? are they part of the build plan schematics?
Everything to build the speaker is in the build plan.
Hi...I am looking for stuff for this build. What radius is used for outer corners and what is the thickness of the boards. I want to make sure I can get everything before ordering the plans.
The radius is approximately 3/4 inch or 19mm and the board thickness is 5/8 inch or 16mm MDF.
Hi! I really love your videos. I want to build these But don't have access to these specific tweeters and parts-express.
Do you have any other tweeter suggestion which I can buy from Aliexpress?
Thanks
The design cannot be done with another tweeter without changing the crossover. What country are you in?
@@SoundBlab I am from Pakistan
There are a number of speaker suppliers in India. Not sure if this will be helpful, but its is the best answer I have right now. You should be able to do a search for these drivers.
do you sell them as kit? I dont have any wood skill..... :(
That's a lovely build and a great sound (Sennheiser headphones at my end). It's like great cooking where simple ingredients, simply cooked, but with great care, can produce amazing results. What is the efficiency like, amp recommendation?
Thanks. They are not hard to drive. Prob around 85dB. Any amp with 20watts or more will be fine.
@@SoundBlab Thanks for that. I have a (kinda) "vintage" Musical Fidelity A1, which could be a good match here. BTW, have you ever thought about "branding" your built speakers? A friend of mine works in a company that makes small-run urethane domed stickers - a SoundBlab logo would look great on your finished builds.
I actually do have my logo in resin dome stickers, but I dont always remember to put them on. Some do though.
👌👌👌👌👌
👍
Does anyone have frd and zma files for HiVi drivers? Can't find them anywhere
Get screenshot of frequency response and ...... Trace that SPL .....
And make sure response is at 85 db rated .......
( In this video response is 6 db lower )
Get manufacturer Z response
is the plan includes the crossover?
Yes, the plan is very detailed and includes the parts list for the crossover and how to build it.
How do you find the customs and shipping costs? I'm in Jozi.
It's pretty heavy. It can easily double the price of what you are ordering. I have found though that ordering from Europe is now cheaper than ordering from the US.
