    Hey everyone, I've FINALLY finished the additional tips-and-tricks guide to go along with my dual-stereo speaker project. In it you can find full details of the crossover & smoothing circuitry, dimensions and cutouts (CNC files and also a square version that's easier to build), and extra info about some cool bluetooth receiver boards that work as a stereo pair if you don't want to go with ear buds. Enjoy! www.patreon.com/posts/dual-stereo-52451164

      Hey! On galaxy buds + there are 2 speakers on each side. Is there any chance it is one for bass and one for treeble? I think I will try to connect amplifiers on separate channels.

    The design and execution are perfect as usual. I'd change a few things, though:
    1. Charging and power delivery method is a bit cumbersome - I'd go with a BMS, type-c and galvanic isolation. Sure, a bit more costly, but less hassle with charging 18650's separately.
    2. Hard pointy feet may give a bit of a rattle on high base. And they're scratchy as well. But, they look really cool - cant argue with that)

    I have been creating an improved version of this project with one internal, rechargeable battery pack for my high school capstone engineering project. The whole point of the project is to learn something along the way, but I sunk almost $300 in the project and that is after certain materials were provided from my school. Love the idea and I have learned so many new skills along the way, but if you’re looking simply to have a nice sounding pair of speakers I would definitely buy some instead of going DIY.

    I've got some old TP4056 charging modules in a box, a number of 18650 cells (from failed laptop batteries), some battery holders and so on, from past projects. I recently scrapped a TV and plan to make an LED light with the screen assembly (thanks to another video of yours). Evidently, I will also be making speakers using the TVs speakers as they're not too bad either.

Got it working but probably due using HP laptop camera, there was no drivers and finding them become bit of a roadblock. I mean camera goes on, but just shows black screen. I still havent given up since i have multiple such cameras around, just need to test suitable one that works for me in future.

      but I digress ...
      I picked up some white van speakers at the salvation army for 10 bucks to build a wireless system for my son's RC car to use with a little Monster Bluetooth adapter and an amp out of a battery powered clock radio, ya know DIY 😉. The 5.1 system satellites were filled with cement!!! I'm serious - CEMENT ... you can't make this up. What kind of evil lil shit thinks to do that to a mans speakers, even if they are garbage, which most all are today anyway. I feel sorry for the poor guy who probably paid 200 bucks to someone "with the deal of a lifetime" in a parking lot somewhere that got the heavy box to home to hear mickey mouse sound, which is bad enough, but cement??

      @@ImPattMan Absolutely, and agreed! As a musician and music production enthusiast, I think when you hear this broad and crisp "crunchiness," it usually has something to do with how well the "saturation" in the mix is passed through by the speakers. Saturation is (usually) a broad spectrum, barely noticeable distortion that adds rich harmonics to instruments, mixes, etc... And, cranked to a higher level, it also produces that delicious crunch on bass, guitars, drums... you name it. Unfortunately, it's one of the first things that is audibly lost on a low quality set of speakers, since the harmonic spectrum isn't reproduced as accurately.

    You are very right to mention the importance of the stereo effect to the listening experience. I've been experimenting with a pair of aiwa midrange drivers for quite a while. When I brought them close together (not in an enclosure or anything), they didn't sound like much. But when I placed them far apart and properly pointed them at my ears, the result sounded MAGICAL. Not only was it louder, but the details were clearly audible - NOTHING like before. That's why I decided to make my single unit bluetooth speaker project a bit more unique, and allow it to split so that you can place the speaker drivers far apart for an awesome listening experience, but also whenever you want to, you can join the drivers back together so that you don't sacrifice any of the convenience and portability single unit speakers offer.

    Amazing build, as always. I agree with others that the battery charging is clunky and annoying, and I would look into implementing some of the suggestions for bypassing that. The other thing that struck me was that Matt didn't put any dampening material inside the cabinets before he sealed them up. He did that in a different video and he emphasized the importance of it. Something like rock wool or home insulation would do the trick.

    For logic purposes I'd add a BMS and a charger port with a discarded laptop charger adapter as a charge power source. And a buck converter to match the voltage, but other than that avoid a removable battery lid, because those screws are going to grind the wood down and cause it to mess up.
