I dunno whay yt have done to the algorithm but I've been getting smaller creators in my feed and i am down for it. Great video. Got yourself another sub
Fantastic stuff and great timing for me too! I've just redone my garage system this weekend and replaced my old Pioneer headunit with the same Aiyima amplifier running some DLS components and a JL 12W3 off a dewalt battery. So shocked at how well and loud the thing sounds! I was gifted a Yamaha HS8 bass driver ages ago (so obliged to do something with it) and not having any T/S parameters never knew what to do with it except maybe transmission line. I was always put off by most of the comments posted in forums etc about the complexity and my ability to get it right, but this has re-inspired me. I'll be playing with speakers again this weekend, thanks.
Joining you at 28k. Just watched your Temu boombox video, and clicked on this straight away. Terrific video. These look, and as far as RUclips sound allows, sound amazing. Brilliant stuff
You were mentioning the clarity of "the thumb on the E string". That's what I love about T-lines, the clarity of the bass. It's usually very natural, not boomy, more realistic when listening to acoustic instruments. I have a pair I built from a kit, but to be honest I've never built another pair because I was thinking I had to hold to all the complicated shit to get a pair that sounded decent. Well to hell with that, I'm going to build a pair using the basics. Thanks for sharing this. Oh also, try throwing some dampening material in there and the bass won't fall off as quickly.
Keep at it. You have a fun and energetic way of explaining stuff. Other people can do bigger better fancier builds, but they don't explain what they are doing, you are explaining and teaching when you do it.
As a person who's built and modified my own sound equipment i 100% agree with you. Doing it yourself not only saves you money and is fun and educational but if you do it right the results can really impress you and be better than pre-made sound equipment that is much more expensive. Even if you use cheap equipment that doesn't mean it's bad at all! You'd be surprised how good cheap equipment has gotten. Definitely recommend more people try this. It's a fun & educational hobby!
I was just trying to find a tutorial on how to install a car stereo when I came across your channel! You're stuff is great! Been watching your bass van build and digging it.
Thank you for your videos! I've watched a few and i like your style, no surprise your channel is growing at a faster pace now. Had and old JVC stereo that spent to much time in a garagem with a big opening above the door and now it sounded horrible. Brought it home, opened one of the speaker enclousures and the speaker was all dry and broken. I don't have much money allocated to projects and what not, but I do have a "chinese store" (they are every where here in portugal), and managed to find a pair of car speakers the same size. Box said 200w, but we all know that is full BS, but my stereo only outputs 40w, so i gave them a shot. Now I have the stereo back to sounding decent and connected to my desktop pc instead of just headphones. Thank you to inspiering me in doing this repair!
Would be great if you could do a v2 of this vid going a bit more in depth on the build process and lessons learned from v1 and comments n such. Thanks, fun vid got a sub. Oh maybe a reuse car speakers to desktop pc speakers would be neat, the cheapest speakers are the ones you already got laying around 😉
It all depends on where your shopping. I got a really good small sound system from walmart. It was 120w 3.1 channel system. It got a front left,right,center and a 200w sub. For anyone wanting a decent sound system good will is a great place to check. Same with some pawn shops. Alot of shops usually underprice home stereo/theater systems and overprice car subwoofers
TL speakerboxes are absolute kicking in the low end ,i've got 2 from T+A and there's no need for a subwoofer ,great guy ,great build, great kid ,great wifey ,great cat...what else....subbed 😄👍
NO WAY THAT'S ME!!!!!!! (just to explain my absence: I clicked on this video as soon as it came out but didn't watch the whole thing because I didn't have time and I hoped I'd be able to get to it soon enough, but a fuck ton of stuff came up, because end of the school year and all that, so I really couldn't until now. What a shame. I hope the money goes to someone who can use it really well)
@@julssdee no, 48 hours is 48 hours, and to be fair, I most likely wouldn't be able to finish the video quickly enough anyways, but since I'm doing it with my own money now, I can take more time and put much more effort into it.
Making your own speakers can be quite satisfying. My speakers each have one 15" woofer, two Philips AD0210 SQ4 dome Mid-Range drivers, and four Philips AD0160 /T8 dome tweeters. How long do they last you may wonder. I built the speakers back in 1976. The only eventual replacements were the outer foam rings of the woofers. The old rings had begun to turn to dust. But that only cost about $27 and an hours work per woofer.
Adam is the colin Furze of Audio, I watched 2 videos and subscribedas this is genious and I really fancy using my acceptable woodwork skills and upgrade my absolutely non existent audio skills to build myself a wonderful gardon bluetooth speaker!
I'm not as mad as I thought by comparison, when I yell obscenities to myself over such an inconvenience costing me time and an extra trip somewhere. Thanks bro.
Small tip on the Panasonic tv you have in the workshop, go into the video options and turn overscan off, it will fit the picture properly to the screen :)
Amazing job on those speakers. I can tell the sub is doing work since my sub was picking up the low notes that the sub in that video was playing. Thats impressive. This inspires me to do my own project. i hope to see more of you man
I love the way you get audio enthusiast come up there lazy asses and do what you explain in this video. You got me mate. Greetings from your overseas neighbor the Netherlands 😊
Bloody amazing content, keep up the amazing work. 😄 so glad someone’s having fun with cheap speakers & subs and sharing it with the world, makes for great content🤣
Have to say, i partialy watched bits of one other video you made, and very quickly came to the conclusion you were... well, abit of a dose... Sir, i owe you an apology. Your an absalute Fcukin Legend
I would probably make the mains tuned just as low as they can go and just use a larger enclosure. Should be plenty loud and low. Getting the sub up above in the attic might help some too
Awesome build there Adam! 😃 Love the way you said "Jesus!" and the door opened to reveal the young fella! And your disgust at the broken saw was most entertaining.
I built some big dog transmission lines as well. Twin 6.5's and a 1 inch tweeter, with my own recipe of 2.5 way crossovers. They're tuned to about 38Hz, but dig down to 30 with ease. They're phenomenal and surprise the absolute crap out of everyone who hears them.
@@PacmanBasshead I think you did well given the drivers used, and they seem (given your comments/reaction) to blend with the sub nicely. You'll push the drivers to distortion if you ask much more of them. That said, when the sense of "what if" gets the better of you and you inevitably build new enclosures, add another woofer in the same 2.5 crossover setup I used. It's an easy upgrade, given you understand the principles, and then you'll be able to target lower frequencies efficiently. From memory, a rear port was more in phase below 45Hz (or something like that), but I don't remember if that was due to the enclosure depth, more than frequency... They measure as well as they sound (using REW), so whatever the reason was, it's correct for my setup. I look forward to watching that video in the near future 😁
I agree with this a hundred percent. Build some similar TLines with an Tuning of around 60hz with a few different sets of speakers in (Speakers placed in the beginning of the line). and damn. These sound so good. Some Acoustic stuffing on the backwall of the line to prevent some unwanted reflections and you have it. an damn good sounding pair of speakers. Love your vids bro. Keep em up!
just found you what you are doing is awesome. testing and building. loved the big jbl in the window. me and a buddy of mine call it geeking out on stereos. waddy kentucky usa says hello
With some decent stuffing, and absorbing treatment on the inside surfaces, it would be even better still! You could have lined the inside with cheap felt padding, and some pillow polyfill would get it done on the cheap.... but the cabinets are already closed :(
Having the speaker 1/3 of the way down the line does not "flatten the response" necessarily. You are cancelling the harmonics that cause you to only have 3x the fB as your range, so once you place your speaker 1/3 the way you can play higher. HornResp is great, play with it
Technically you have made quarter-wave "tubes", a true transmission-line has specific damping materials along it's length to absorb certain frequencies and prevent reflections. I have a pair of TL speakers that someone DIYed back in the 80s using USA made Realistic full-range drivers (cheap and cheerful, but Realistic was serious about home hi-fi back then). The TL is fully damped and even the front baffle has damping material on the front under the grill material. They sound fricken amazing and the sound-stage is truly something to hear for near-field listening.
Greetings from Canada, eh! Great videos and I love your enthusiasm and energy. Quite infectious. How about doing a video on actually designing and building a transmission line speaker system like this one? I am sure lots of us would love to see it and you have a great way of teaching. Looking forward to the next video mate!
@johnb1156 greetings, eh! It's certainly an idea but I think there are people out there that are far more qualified than myself for such a task, im certainly no leading expert on transmission lines and I wouldn't want to p155 people off be pretending to be 😊. There's plenty more content on the way, im just stuck on the latest project currently!
With much respect. I have seen some of those videos and tbh, after I still have no idea and want to get that 30 minutes or so of my life back. I think you would be able to show and explain in simple enough terms for all of us to understand. So I’ll be watching your videos because they are damned good, and hoping one day to see a tutorial on transmission lines eh. 😊
would love to be featured in your video I could easily release an video for you that is non copyrighted with music with my crazy 100w speaker! it does need some upgrades! as well would want to try to make an series to push that speaker to max. from cheap chineese speaker to hifi alibaba speaker :D
I’d love to see some controlled frequency db testing to be able to see how the calculated frequencies vs actual output of the build. Haven’t built a T-Line for around 10 years, but this is the first time hearing about placing the speaker down the line to flatten response. When I calculated mine, I was assuming beginning of the wave started at the back of the speaker, so I always located my subs right at the beginning of the line. I hope that makes sense, and I’d love to experiment with that to see if the peak frequency shifts at all, or how much db you lose (if any) by flattening the curve and getting a broader response range. Also I never thought to put tweeters in the T-Line, do they seem unaffected by being in the enclosure? Could be a nice space saver
Totally unbothered! Because the tweet is sealed, all the wave sees is a very minor bump in the woods surface which makes no difference what so ever to the response.
I subscribed to you today, watched a few of your videos, and this is by far the best DIY cheap sound series i have ever seen! Keep up the good work mate!
I stumbled across your video clearly by happenstance. I've been an audio guy for decades now. How about doing a video where you compare one transmission line speaker (full range or sub) to a ported version of that same speaker, so we can tell if there's any performance benefit of either design.
Yh they sound top notch bro will upload my build when i start next month waiting on clamps and midbase drivers ..am making some ten inch studio monitors just for fun
I have just subscribed to this channel, after seeing this. I have always owned hi-end stereo separates and speakers, so this was an interesting watch. 👍🏼
@PacmanBasshead I agree, this is potentially going to spur me on to create my own floor standing speakers? This has my spider senses tingling... now, lets get down to looking at full range subs ect 😜
This video was great fun, I'd love to build speakers in the future. Also you've got overscan turned on with your TV, the edges are being cut off for stupid old TV broadcast reasons. There's probably a mode setting somewhere on there to fix it.
Great job! I built many speakers and it is fun. And if you do like this, you can get great results for an affordable price. I belive that spend a few more money on the Wood, you get extra good results. Dont need to be much thicker than this, but really dont build with to thin Wood. Then you need to put braces everywere Also, you dont always need Wool in the speaker. That is often used to fool the speaker that the box is bigger. Spend an extra few hours on facts and how to, and you all Will be very surprised what you just build!
@@franshaan7388 Yes, this post was more to beginners who watches this series. Very fun, to watch. Its actually more science than many thinks behind a clean sound that is hz matched. But it doesnt need to be that expensive as byuing a set for 1000$ Some math, some carpenting and you soon have a nice set of sound. Sell them and earn a few bucks, build a new pair with higher quality of speakers. Try different setups, as tweeter, 6,5” mid base, 2x 8” base elements. That offers for a really good stereo setup with the right volume of the box. Think this way also, the bigger woofer you mount, the more air it might push. But it can sound crap in a small room. Two 12” bases are like one 18” base in area, but they act quite differently. 18” can have trouble to get a snappy base. But pushes good on low hz. If you not but really expensive bases that can handle that effect required to push hard and fast. So, its easier and more affordable to build with 8” or 12” for bases. Good push, that can go deep and be snappy, a great mix for normal rooms.
Hi, if you want to check ish tuning on your box. Play hz tones at good and high volume, watch the sub... When the sub is standing most still... there you have your tuning :) Tline should be much more videos of, really fun boxes. my self i was going to build dual chamber bass reflex box, but since seller sent me 12 insted of 10" then i need to change plans. thinking of tline myself.
@@PacmanBasshead yeah I've been getting into my speakers, gonna be getting a surround sound in my room but gotta try and figure out where to put it all
damn bro i was waiting on this video haha finally someone that knows it dont need to be much money to have fun en still have good music with a cheaper sound system💯👌
They may work even better if you added some correctly tuned crossovers to the speaker cabinets. Great build and really good explanation of Transmission Line speakers
That was the fastest I have ever clicked on a video in my life
Same

Yes same 😂
This makes me so very happy thankyou everyone!
fooken smashed it mate this was a fun build!
Awh man thankyou! It was fun! I really enjoyed it!

The intro hitting the table whit your head 😂😂😂😂 gets me every time fucking hell mate 😂😂😂
Haha im glad. The secret is to have loose stuff on the bench so it rattles, rather than a forceful concussion
Well dang, this was fun! You know you've done something right when the sub isn't moving, but the listening room is!
Coupling at its finest 👌
never have I subscribed so fast. Now I want to build one for a powerful 12" sub for ht. Thank you.

Will do! A lot of it is overly complicated my people trying to look cool, its not actually that hard a lot of it.
man the way you made this far more intresting than i was expecting keep the content coming idc what u make ill watch
Proper crossover networks would make these next level. GREAT WORK!😊
And some stuffing/damping.
You got that right! Spend some more quid, whatever a quid is.

I’d love to see some controlled frequency db testing to be able to see how the calculated frequencies vs actual output of the build. Haven’t built a T-Line for around 10 years, but this is the first time hearing about placing the speaker down the line to flatten response. When I calculated mine, I was assuming beginning of the wave started at the back of the speaker, so I always located my subs right at the beginning of the line. I hope that makes sense, and I’d love to experiment with that to see if the peak frequency shifts at all, or how much db you lose (if any) by flattening the curve and getting a broader response range.
Also I never thought to put tweeters in the T-Line, do they seem unaffected by being in the enclosure? Could be a nice space saver
Totally unbothered! Because the tweet is sealed, all the wave sees is a very minor bump in the woods surface which makes no difference what so ever to the response.
I subscribed to you today, watched a few of your videos, and this is by far the best DIY cheap sound series i have ever seen! Keep up the good work mate!
Thanks man! Seriously appreciated!
I stumbled across your video clearly by happenstance. I've been an audio guy for decades now. How about doing a video where you compare one transmission line speaker (full range or sub) to a ported version of that same speaker, so we can tell if there's any performance benefit of either design.
@e-mailuser9811 potentially! This can however be done on computer 😊
Yh they sound top notch bro will upload my build when i start next month waiting on clamps and midbase drivers ..am making some ten inch studio monitors just for fun
@constantine2731 thatll be a loud studio!
@@PacmanBasshead hopefully lol 😂
You have been Adam, you’re not wrong there. More vids please?
Great video, you've got a subscription from me. I love the backyard budget build, I suppose it makes me feel this is something I could do myself.
I waited patiantly for this one!
I have just subscribed to this channel, after seeing this.
I have always owned hi-end stereo separates and speakers, so this was an interesting watch. 👍🏼
High end stuff is amazing but you can absolutely recreate it with low end stuff. If you can send a good signal then you are laughing
@PacmanBasshead I agree, this is potentially going to spur me on to create my own floor standing speakers? This has my spider senses tingling... now, lets get down to looking at full range subs ect 😜
Please do more speaker builds!
@@enrico81 haha. I will once the channel generates the money to cover them 😊
Build a series 6th order 2:1 ratio 28/56hz and compare it to your t-line built.
Now he has over 8k! Let's goooo guys. Let's make this channel famous! This content is amazing!
Thankyou man!
@@PacmanBasshead no! Thnkyou!
This video was great fun, I'd love to build speakers in the future.
Also you've got overscan turned on with your TV, the edges are being cut off for stupid old TV broadcast reasons. There's probably a mode setting somewhere on there to fix it.
All sorted dude, thankyou!
This is great stuff. Easiest to follow explanation I have seen.
Thankyou mate!
Great job!
I built many speakers and it is fun. And if you do like this, you can get great results for an affordable price.
I belive that spend a few more money on the Wood, you get extra good results. Dont need to be much thicker than this, but really dont build with to thin Wood.
Then you need to put braces everywere
Also, you dont always need Wool in the speaker.
That is often used to fool the speaker that the box is bigger.
Spend an extra few hours on facts and how to, and you all Will be very surprised what you just build!
I know Adam a bit longer, he is into Soundquality as well as bass. He has allready done great stuff but doesn't show it off that much!

Yes, this post was more to beginners who watches this series.
Very fun, to watch.
Its actually more science than many thinks behind a clean sound that is hz matched. But it doesnt need to be that expensive as byuing a set for 1000$
Some math, some carpenting and you soon have a nice set of sound.
Sell them and earn a few bucks, build a new pair with higher quality of speakers.
Try different setups, as tweeter, 6,5” mid base, 2x 8” base elements.
That offers for a really good stereo setup with the right volume of the box.
Think this way also, the bigger woofer you mount, the more air it might push. But it can sound crap in a small room.
Two 12” bases are like one 18” base in area, but they act quite differently.
18” can have trouble to get a snappy base. But pushes good on low hz.
If you not but really expensive bases that can handle that effect required to push hard and fast.
So, its easier and more affordable to build with 8” or 12” for bases.
Good push, that can go deep and be snappy, a great mix for normal rooms.
Cool, facking energetic, fun, entertaining and educational.
Keep up the amazing work/fun
Thanks man!
Hi, if you want to check ish tuning on your box. Play hz tones at good and high volume, watch the sub... When the sub is standing most still... there you have your tuning :)
Tline should be much more videos of, really fun boxes.
my self i was going to build dual chamber bass reflex box, but since seller sent me 12 insted of 10" then i need to change plans.
thinking of tline myself.
Great content brother, Happy to have found your channel. Might just have to order some stuff and put those extra car speakers to work.
@LewdnCute happy to have you man! Thanks!
Well done Adam.
More!
More home-brew builds please.
Very entertaining as ever, kinda worried about your dome long term, but hey that's your problem😆Keep on keeping on!
Gotta be one of the funniest you tubers out there 😂😂
Thanks man! Im just being me so thats nice to hear!
@@PacmanBasshead yeah I've been getting into my speakers, gonna be getting a surround sound in my room but gotta try and figure out where to put it all
I subscribed just because u hit ur head in the intro 😅😅😅😅 dude is very informative n funny..
Love your Montage Tunes.
damn bro i was waiting on this video haha finally someone that knows it dont need to be much money to have fun en still have good music with a cheaper sound system💯👌
Its what its all about!
They may work even better if you added some correctly tuned crossovers to the speaker cabinets.
Great build and really good explanation of Transmission Line speakers
Holy hell mate your vids are absolutely hilarious they’ve inspired me to want to start my own project 😂
Good! Do it!
