    Hi Kirby
    I've watched this series a few times now. Big fan of your work!!!
    Long time user of winisd and tanks too you also vituixCAD.
    A lot of fooling around with the programs and eventually you made me buy those small woofers and tweeters ( I've used some other Dayton tweeters because they look better)
    But know, the speakers are almost finished, only paint and bass reflex tubes (the hole is there but no tube =p)
    Hooked them up too lay around filters (only the tweeters) woofers directly too the amp.
    My gosh,... The sound amazing already!!
    Huge base for such a small speaker.
    ( normally I listen my music on Philips conductor FB860 speakers with Marantz ma700 mono amps)
    Still fooling around with vituixcad for the end filter, lots of fun!
    Big thanks, keep up the good work!
    Ps: I know it's a bit more expensive butt I would love too see a similar series with bigger speakers like,. With double 8" woofers, mid and ribbon tweeter.
    Speakers 4ft high =D

  • @RobotArms24
    @RobotArms24 6 лет назад

    I hate to be the guy nit picking little things but... I noticed you doing two things that could be done better. First thing was using the mitre gauge on your table saw with the fence. This can cause binding and kickbacks, especially if the pieces are wider. Why not cut them on the mitre saw, as they were quite narrow. The other way is to put a block on the fence in front of blade so that you run off the block before you cut but you still get the width stop. The second thing I saw that could be improved was the soldering. It is better to put the tip of the iron under the wire and apply the solder on the top. When you apply solder on the iron and let it run through down onto the wire, you end up with cold solder joints that could fail. Applying heat to opposite side of the wire helps the solder flow through the wire and creates a much stronger joint. Your videos are always excellent, keep up the good work.

  • @mcjonner

    Nice looking speakers probably my favorite so far. I like these style of videos too with the music. Could you put the music title in the description too?
    Also I like how you lay out the info section, very informative with the tools necessary to build, its professional looking.
    Could you do graphs after the build is done so we can see how they can perform? I was thinking this exact build and looking at speakers on parts express and came to a vifa tweeter and 2 tang band woofers.
    Keep up the good work

    That's all. Unfortunatelly in reality speaker building is more a science than an art of woodworking. In order to get a good sounding speakers you can't just mount any set drivers into any nice looking boxes.

    Amazing work, Excellent craftsmanship, Good afternoon from the Philippines, I love your video tutorias it really helps me a lot about Audio systems, the only problem is the tools and materials only a little are available in the market, that's why whenever I watch your video I keep telling to myself I wish I was there in the states so I can order a custom made speaker for myself. I hope you could do a video of speaker built designed for home theater. God bless and thank you again for your wonderful videos.... inspiring

    Really clean build - they really remind me of some MISSION speakers from a few years back. Its shocking the price people will pay when building your own will save you so much money.
    if having access to an 'open workshop' was a thing then people might learn some new skills.
