I'm building a set of Focal towers for the home. I have a pair of Focal 33KX Woofers, a pair of 165K2P Mid's and Peerless Silk Tweeters. The boxes are made from 64mm thick MDF wood. There is a recess on the baffle to accept a mm sheet of open cell foam with an Anechoic pattern (star pattern) around the tweeter. Pine/Hardwood bonded rib bracing (cabinet resonances are as good as zero with this system. Are can't wait to finish them , they should sound magnificent !!
If I were to do that project, I would swap the dual 6.5” per side for a set of dual 8’s. I ran some 8’s on a build for midrange and midbass, that was super sweetness!!! A lot fuller midrange, with depth of voices, drums, minus kick drum. Would also run all Focal drivers. I would like to come across something of this caliber with the Revelator grade drivers. Would love to get an audition for my ears with those drivers…
Impressive! The CNC was so cool. And the level of perfection of the lacquer job, with all layers and polishing to a mirror finish made it look perfect. The acoustic quality of the construction looks high level. I can imagine the original Focal machine technical drawings was at hend ? It was obvious that you put down many hours of work with this project. I envy you the possibility to use the CNC, your workshop, and the finished speakers.👍
Very nice indeed!, way beyond most DIYers capabilities, but a stunning result, i have a pair of vintage JM LAB Electra 920, with similar specs, sound great on low powered triodes!
Very very nice Vladimir, super build for hobby-man. It's great to have this drawing. Can I get these drawings for cnc and the other too? Maybee you sell them? Greatz from Holland
Wow. Excellent😮. I,ve heard the grande utopia in France and sounded wonderful. Very expensive in France too. I know you can find woofer drivers from focal (car drivers are good too) but I doubt you can buy a beryllium tweeter from focal 😢... I know you are now a happy man !
I recently made a copy of the Fokal Utopia. At the request of the customer, a crossover and an amplifier are installed in the lower box, through the partition. I do not write for arguments, but just tell you what happens and so.
Прекрасная работа! Имею желание повторить такой проект используя имеющиеся свои динамики. Пожалуйста, поделитесь технической информацией с размерами или посоветуйте ресурс, где это можно узнать.
Wauw! What a fantastic job! I was looking for inspiration for high-end DIY speakers with some of the best units built in. If you would consider selling me your epic drawings for the CNC machine, I would really consider to make this to. I'm a fan of the Focal Stella Utopia to. But the price tag.... This is an amazing job you've done, and i fully understand if you hold on to this one yourself! Hit me up if you want to make a deal!
Hi Vladimir my name is Paolo and i am from Mauritius i was busy wondering if you do sell a copy of the Utopia plans because i want to build one but cannot find any plans on the net. kindly let me know if you are willing to sell a copy of the plans. Regards,
Dík za odpověď. Slyšel sem v Praze na výstavě tuším Scala Evo a podle mě nejlepší zvuk výstavy. Jaké byli použity repro? A třeba jak se zvuk blíží originálu porovnání v %? Jinak špičková práce.
@@matrixplace It is not, if you use some composite materials technics. More over, if you take a furniture plywood with 20 layers, everything will be even better. It's all about a price.
@@sc0or Maybe you are right, but I have never seen expensive speakers made of plywood, and I think when they build speakers for 100k and more, they can afford using plywood if it is better.
@@matrixplace You are right. It's only a personal preference and convenience in processing and assembling. If paper and plywood sound the same, any businessman prefers a cheaper solution. I don't mind this. But you can find plywood and bamboo in some crafted products with lot of curved surfaces and exterior details.
@@matrixplace I have found one for you -) PIONEER S-955 III Made of plywood, original price was 390,000 Y, (about $17,000 in present day US Dollars considering historical exchange rate and inflation)
This is not a DIY speaker build! This is done in a proper factory by someone who is a professional with years of experience in the field. Am I wrong? Still an amazing job. Well done.
this is one of the most amazing cabinet builds I've ever seen
Even crazier someone stole the design and is trying to charge 135k a pair .
@@DigitalModz These are a copy of the Focal, not the other way around.
@@DigitalModz What are you talking about?
Ohhhhhh man, you are the best DIY speaker maker in the world, never seen like this before!!!
No word except PERFECT can describe what you did!!
From start to fish that is one incredibly professional build! I hope they sound as good as they look.
Tak to je naprosto precizní projekt. To muselo stát spoustu hodin práce a potu. Můj sen něco takového vlastnit. Kolik to tak materiálové stalo?
@@petrpetr8522 mdf stala myslim 13.000

Did you finish them yet?
Your hard work inspires me.
I love your build do you have de cad files I would love the build your model myself ..
Very good 👍 i like the look too 😍
Excellent. Congratulations. Good for your labor.
Wow! I'd love to have a CNC router like that. Great job!
Think it is time to definitely change that mill bit for a fresh one. Should be cutting flawlessly, not tearing the wood, especially MDF…

Klobúk dole, prekrásna robota!!!
Very very nice Vladimir, super build for hobby-man.
It's great to have this drawing.
Can I get these drawings for cnc and the other too?
Maybee you sell them?
Greatz from Holland
They are beautiful. Is it possible to get any drawings or dimensions from you please?
Wow! Amazing! I wish I had woodworking skills.
Hi Vladimir. Seriously beautiful! Well done. Would it be possible to share the drawings used for the cnc cutting?
Félicitation !!! Énorme boulot 👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Focal dont sell speakers many years....except car speakers. But there is a lot of great speakers on market.
Holy wow. Great job 👌🏻
Big respect for this Mr.!
Where did you get the drivers? How did you design the crossover?
plot twist he bought the real one
@@adriannasyraf3534 😂😂😂😂
@@adriannasyraf3534 not that far from true...I think the cabinets for how they are made are the most expensive..
Wow, you are very talented.
That's pure genius. tell people you bought them and see their reaction
very nice work.
Great job ever I seen before!
Literally WOW nice job
Do you have plans and if yes are you willing to share them?
Congratulations job done really well though I would pin it in red Ferrari.
Great job friend, you could put an amplifier and crossovers in the lower box

Can u provide the cad models? Would be awesome!
Stunning.

Great job. What are the loudspeakers?
Is it possible to have the project to realize it?
King of diy 👍
Woow great job !👌
The inner shape is based on the original focal utopia ?
Marvelous!!
Nice work, bravo!
Most awesome! Thank You for the post!
And how does it sound ? Is the effort rewarded with good sound ?

Amazing work. How did you manage to get the plans?
nice job!!
Magnificient work! I'll bet that it has cost you almost as much as buying a pair from Focal, or perhaps not?
Cca 3200€ without cnc work and my time
@@kako4967 Good for you! You really saved a lot on a landmark speaker!
Plans or drawings with dimensions?
здравствуйте. не могли бы вы поделиться чертежами с размерами колонок. очень хочу сделать такие же.
Great work , could you send me the design plans ?
I would like the design plans to build these.
Wow.. amazing skills. Where can I buy a kit?
отличная и трудоемкая работа
Plywood?
Great work, but with so much effort I would make insides curved also
is this cabinet available in a flat pack for diy
Hi Vladimir my name is Paolo and i am from Mauritius i was busy wondering if you do sell a copy of the Utopia plans because i want to build one but cannot find any plans on the net. kindly let me know if you are willing to sell a copy of the plans. Regards,
Excellent work!
Velmi pěkná práce. co jste prosím použil za reproduktory? Je to třípásmo nebo čtyřpásmo? Pro středy máte jak velkou komoru? Děkuji Martin
Hi Vladimir. Are you selling the plans in any platform? I would like to purchase the pdf and cad to make it. Thanks!
I think he he sold them he would do very well!
Haben sie ein plan ich würde gerne auch eine bauen?
Astonishing!!!
لطفاً اندازهی قطعات آن را به سانتی متر بهم بگید
This is amazing !
Naozaj pekná práca!

Il est possible de commandé l ébéniste avec vous ?
Can I buy the cad plans from you?
Is it possible to get the CAD files please?
Cool - what drivers will you be going with?
how did you make the drivers and the crossover?
I'm also intersted by this
where to download program for cnc or blue print
This is a full on replica not a clone or bootleg, it’s a perfect replica of the actual focal Stella utopia
Thanks
Do you sell the CAD files ?
You ordered at IKEA?
And ..how do they sound?
Ok i would like to order a pair!!!! 😁
😻 🤤 😻 🤤 😻 🤤 excelente.!!! Precio?
Bravo!!
Do you sell drawings of this speaker
Can i buy a kit ?
здравствуйте а вы можете проект мне выслать, ХОЧУ У СЕБЯ ДОМА ПОСТАВИТЬ БЫЛ БЫ ВАМ ОЧЕНЬ БЛАГОДАРЕН
Nice wood work, Now what drivers are you gonna use ?
On next video you can see it
How much did it cost to clone?
i knowt it can be done,...........a price ?
Would you like to choose plywood next time? When I see all this paper I become very skeptical. Ale celkom to vyzera neuveritelne.
Even the original speakers, that cost more than 100 000 euro per speaker are made of MDF. Plywood is very bad choice for speakers...

Yes and no....its DIY project only with cnc and hands. Im not professional with wood working. Its just my hobby and passion
@@kako4967 - If you are not a professional, you are just amazing. You should try to sell these.
@@mattbrown3549 no, i dont made it for profit.just for myself and for feeling....if some say its not possible to made it....i make it
@@kako4967 - No problem. It is great. I wish I could do even a small speaker build.
Do you have a woodworking business?
