All right then! Thank you and sorry it took so long! Probably the most intelligent conversation on here. Thanks for talking with me for so long too!
I'ma cnc programing / Machinist in training I would love to make speaker parts all day just to see my friends faces when I tell them I probably made it ... But right now I'm working for the company who fixed the BP disaster ... We make the best oilfield equipment in the world hands down. So I'm proud to be a part of that. But still live for pure undistorted music. No pmp here only rms.
Its nice to see them being built. when they say about the midrange speaker and tweeters, what they don't tell you is aswell as handle different frequencys they are also for directional purposes, they can create an illusion for the soundstage and depending on the set up give transaural directional properties. I once heard some extremely good speakers and they were leagues ahead of anything else. 2 speakers gave full 3d sound in all listening positions. This vid makes me want to make my own
Nice. Thanks
I love this show i watch it all the time, im gonna add this vid to my ipod
this comment is so old my mans really meant ipod and not iphone, wild
I bet you this account is inactive
@@leeharveydarke stfu I didn’t ask fortnite noob trash kid
Subwoofer design has changed so much in the past 20 years..
exactly
This is cool!!!!!!!!! I wish I had this kind of equipment to build my own speakers.
gr8 vid... i didnt realize speakers had so much solid metal in them!!
Sean Durham , you need as much as 600 volts , and as direct current to create a strong enough magnetic field to align the molecular structure of the ferrite , so you can have a magnet .
I like that! It would probably be fun working at a speaker factory.
I like the music in this clip theres another good upbeat one in this show that i like, still looking for that one
people bitching about the speackers voice ?
its easy to understand and clearly enunciated...
what else do you want ? drama and emotions ?
I think its pretty awsome someone eplained me under
5 minutes how a speaker is made.
I wish schools were that efficient.
Huh... didn't know so much of this was done by hand. Also, I LOVE this show. ^-^
Glue is fantastic, because it does not transmit unwanted vibrations. They also use glue in the car indrustry to put parts of the car body together.
Very interesting. Thanks.
I lugged those huge concert PA system for decades.
Looks like a SoundKing driver, used in Carlsbro Gammas, Studiospares Fortissimos, Pulse PAS series and Metro Audio Systems SP series.
a subwoofer is a speaker,don't let anyone tell you otherwise unless they've done research online,
a subwoofer is a speaker ranging from 3 inches all the way up to 12 inches or higher that has been laboratory tested and approved to respond to a frequency range
from 20hz or higher all the way to 400hz or lower depending on manufacturing specs.
I was thinking that voice coil is so massive that it must limit the transient speed of the cone. Then I went DUH it's a subwoofer, it doesn't need to move very quickly. I've done open heart surgery on my Beyerdynamic DT880's and let me tell you, the voice coil in those drivers probably weighs less than a cornflake. That is amazing considering its made of pure copper.
This is the most worthwhile video I`ve seen on RUclips! Thankyou!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ModernThreads this is a higher end speaker, which are made by hand, but walmart speakers are machine made
a woofer is a speaker that can respond to a frequency from a range from 40hz all the way up to 1khz or higher,
a tweeter is a speaker that can deliver a frequency range from 2,000hz all the way up to 100khz, a super tweeter is a ultrasonic speaker that can deliver a frequency range from 20khz to 100khz and they supposedly affect how music is heard even though they aren't in the range of human hearing and are supposedly felt.
did it ever work?
this just reminded me how much I need a new sound system... Though my AWA provided years of entertainment it's time for it's student's income grade quality to get an upgrade. =D
good question. I'm not sure but i think it helps the thermal waste, because the electro-magnet produce some heat. So the heat has to be evacuated, in this case through the well of the core.
I miss this show
Alright now I have to find it!
Alumidumb , that's the best one I have ever heard . Your a classic !
Long live the audiofile!
becouse its a lot of precise work to make sure it works perfectly
@gegonut
These are TRansparance loudspeakers, manufactured by Belisle Acoustics in Chateauguay, Quebec.
Thanks Vincent , definitely a help .
Wow, excelente, siempre quize saber cómo los fabricaban!
@rcfirdy
It reproduces the signal as a mixture of the different frequencies. So a speaker reproduces a range of vibrations that was captured by a microphone diaphragm. They use 2 or more speakers in a cabinet to reproduce different speed vibrations (low/high pitch) clearly. So a single speaker cabinet has limits on it's frequency range. Your ear also picks up an approximation of the combined frequencies (vibrations) interacting when you hear musical instruments.
What's the song at the very beginning and end?
thanks for sharing this video
diepro2615, I agree loads of glueeeeee. However, if it works... don't fix it. Theres probably one (or more) good reasons why they use loads of glue.
xxDevilxxDriversxx, thanks for uploading this. It's very interesting to find out how speakers work and how they are made.

Well the basket and motor assembly can be super heavy, but what has to be light yet rigid is the cone. There are lots of woofer models involving basket and frame assemblies that weigh over 50lbs, some weigh over 100lbs, but their cone assemblies with the suspension and voice coils weigh just several ounces, usually no more than a pound depending on the cone size and material (paper pulp, plastic, aluminum, woven glass fiber, woven kevlar fiber).
@rcfirdy Man, it reproduces only an electric signal, but that signal (imagine your favourite song) is a combination of various frequencies which are changing during the time the song lasts. Only a signal contains the sound of vocals, drums, etc at the same time.
(sorry for my english)
good video. Thanks
This is a subwoofer actually and the coil needs to move but it also needs to be close one of the poles of the magnet for better power so they cut it and add a core which will have same polarzation with the magnet.And coil can move easily and magnet power will be same.
I love the background music.... in MIDI.
great video, thanks!!!
Loudspeaker are perfect for boombox and computer speakers?
I agree with an earlier comment that a subwoofer is meant to operate in the Infrasonic spectrum , that is , below 20 Hz . Anything that goes from 20 Hz to 200 Hz is just a regular woofer . Anyway , what is Sodder , I was taught that it is Solder .
Excellent video.
i've watched this video a million times by now xD
that's so it doesn't vibrate itself apart, woofers have to withstand very high pulling forces. if the coil weren't glued very well to the cone for example, it would pop out of the woofer in the second you turned the music on.
Very Informative and Exclusive..
This is not a subwoofer, it's a PA midwoofer. But like a subwoofer, it has a lot of travel and can displace a lot of air. The hole in the magnet is for ventillation, to allow air not to be fully trapped but to move in and out. This has an effect on speaker parameters, because trapped air acts like a spring, so ventillation makes suspension less stiff, raising the resonant Q and making driver more efficient. Also attenuates resonance behind dustcap.
Cooling is not a primary design criterium.
Wow harder than I thought
I have a questions about speakers, cant seem to find the answer anywhere....Does anyone know if its ok to play around with the bass and treble switches, like turning them up and down, wil this ruin my speakers or is it ok to do.
good catch on the 600V of current... i went back to check and had to laugh at it :D
"Glue, the new, old, Duct Tape. YEAH!"
i like the video n learnt a lot...
Good job!
Yeah, because what I'm wondering is how they make the magnet, and how do they make the cone and speaker surrounds (the surrounds are important even though they are not mentioned in the video).
@Biesrokz those are just sound bites. not a song.
I know I love audio it is what I wake up for! Subbed you back I see a lot of people on craigslist that underprice what they have because they are blown! That is a poor excuse to me!
cool video
very cool
I use to work in a speaker manufacturing years ago.
Whenever i'm soldering near the speakers on my organ, the speakers hum. Now, what i am wondering: Is the speaker amplifying the minute sounds of the soldering gun? Or, Is the speaker magnet picking up on the electromagnetic pulses from the gun.
many many thanks
hmm...so did you build these loudspeakers too?
Ever dropped a gallon of water on your toe? Imagine dropping a 5 gallon jug on that toe, lol.
Ever wondered how speakers are made?
Is it true by putting some lotion on the cone helps loosen up (broke in) stiff speakers?
nice expl
Expl ?? İF BUYYED SPEAKER NEED KNOW THAT THİS İS EASY BUİLD
See how sloppy the glue for the dust cap was on the last speaker...
@EX0contralt0 typically Bass is sound as well a low frequency one and is made by a subwoofer by making a "low frequency wave" a tweeter is for high frequency the same but much smaller and makes high frequency waves the mid one speaker makes the frequencies between the tweeter and the subwoofer frequencies... and by far they are all speakers... for more information read wikipedia...
Your video is good greetings from L4L BMB from Indonesia
I enjoy listening to metal whilst watching "How it's Made"
for this, I used Gojira - Adoration for None.
worked nicely
Now I'll make one!
no im trying to find the music from this tv show and lots of people are but the music is composed specifically for the show
tnx man :) so cool and interesting
If the movement of the cone creates sound waves that we hear as noise,how can it vibrate at multiple frequencies at the same time.That is to say,how can it produce sound that we hear as music when there is bass,symbols,high pitched guitar,vocals,etc all at the SAME TIME? How can the cone possibly vibrate at various frequencies to produce ALL THE SOUNDS SIMILTANEOUSLY?
Did he tell you where you get them? Like a hobby store or something?
the upper part of speaker shinning is metal or steel ?
What you are spraying in the spider
@ 3:00 what is that pink colored sheet and what does it do?
muito bom valeu!
@MIKON8ERISBACK
I really don't know. I do know that all of the drivers are hand made by Magico and all of the aluminum extrusion is done in-house. They are not mass-produced by any means. The company has only a handful of employees.
Yes , speaker is a general term . I only mention subwoofers as a particular category , designed to do a specific range , that's all .
song at beginning sounds really familiar . anyone know what it is?
is she saying its pleasure?
When they say " 600 volts of direct current" , it is 600 volts DC. It has to be DC to magnetize it . 600 volts AC would be alternating the magnetic field too much to work , it is alternating current after all , alternating in direction . DC doesn't alternate in direction .
man i wish i had the damn speaker they were making....i would shake my house down...lol
I like this track too.
...say you wouldn't happen to know where a person could find this background music, like without any of the narration etc.?
who ever made this is f*cking genius
Whether this is a subwoofer or not depends on the frequency range for which it's used. The term "subwoofer" is a bit of a misnomer. Legitimate subwoofers, properly designed, are capable of generating frequencies BELOW the normal range of human hearing ... that is, INFRASONIC frequencies generally below 20 Hz. Many systems called subwoofers are actually woofers, with response generally to down to about 30 Hz.
haha, make sure the penny is VERY shiny, so it carries the current lol, nice one
awesome
this is not how a speaker is made, this is how a bass element is made.
I'm beginning to wonder if they built that magnetizing machine. The panel looks like something which came out of an IBM tape drive.
I want to know what factory/manufacturer that is? Anyone know?
@Yunituber Well... wouldn't you say that is true for most materials and products made?
This looks like a big Electro Voice speaker, maybe its a Eminence speaker....
This video addicted me to glue
can anyone tell me where to find instructions on removing a pole piece, i have one off centered..thanks for any help
I read the article that Vincent recommended , and also from my experience , only the U.S. says " Aluminum " . Have a look at the article that Vincent Morebucks recommends .
