Great build. The drywall screws are sacrilegious.

I definitely will be getting a pair of bookshelves for me to assemble. Good job people@CSS

Awesome. As a fellow enthusiast, with a dozen speaker projects completed...... very well done. LOVE the copper accents. Doing us proud.

Awesome video!! You have great woodworking, design and fabrication skills ... a rare combo. Thanks for sharing!

wood better

Hope they sound as nice as they look!

The end result is amazing (Although I have not heard it). But for me, this video is just a show off of how good you guys are at woodworking. It is nowhere near helpful for other people, like me, wanting to build their own speakers. I miss information like why certain dimensions were chosen, why certain material, more in depth info on the speakers and their configuration, etc... I hope this helps you guys.

Very nice good sir 😄👍

This is a great idea, any timeline ?

The moment of maturity at 12:12 is priceless. well done sir. i salute you. wit, skill and beautiful speakers, what's not to like? (and subscribe).

I believe Wilson Audio has been using Corian for their Watt Puppy series. I can tell you, their cabinets are dead solid, no resonance transmitted.

What a great DIY project. The only concern any diy speaker builder might have, would be the skills, tools and number of hours required to complete the project. It isn't for a beginner.

With a million dollars worth of shop thats bigger than my house

Yeah...lets ignore the 150000 worth shop. Other than that; top job!

Boring

Why do you call bookmatching veneer "seaming"?

Invest a little more money on Mobile Solutions toake clean circke on a router especially you're jn the speaker building business.

Yes please the kit would be awesome!

Nice speakers. Great editing. Great voice over. Well done video for sure. But man - your carelessness around your table saw and dado blade make me nervous for your fingers and hands. Every panel you cut made me cringe for your safety.

If you want to design really good speakers first you have to m

I still use my Car version of the LDx25 that was small batch for sale on car forum many, many years ago. Serial no 1 & 2

I very much enjoyed this video. I learned a lot watching this video. I hope you will make more. Thanks

Why not use contact cement?

Wait so you don't have a dedicated tweeter, just a coax in the middle? That's SOO far from ideal, since coax drivers have serious significant compromises in their design that hurts tweeter performance... The best of the best ones like KEF and MOFI and maybe satori do well and come reasonably close to dedicated tweeter performance, but outside of that, none do. You might be able to EQ them ok on axis but they all suffer from diffraction, plus the Doppler type effects of the woofer, which is the waveguide, moving at higher spls. It also will not be able to keep up volume wise with a speaker this large and with this many drivers, meaning if you test the distortion and SPL limits the tweeter is going to be the limiting factor here in distortion and compression at higher volumes. Looks great though, amazing work, I would just design it differently. If one of the main goals was having a point source through the vocal range, or the majority of it, there's other ways to achieve this, like a large horn, or a large planar/folded ribbon type speaker, or a large waveguide with the right tweeter selection, all of those could provide you a crossover between 500-1khz depending on your choice.

Amazing job and if ur looking to donate a pair of them I'd gladly take them😂😂😂😂

$35K!!! I need to start building speakers!!

We see only some woodworking, but zero information about crossover design/measuring results. So it is nice relaxing video from carpentry shop, but nothing more.

some details on the drivers would be nice. why you chose them and how you chose their arrangement in the cabinet.

awesome project. a sound test with a really good mic setup would be cool.

Love it!

Amazing speakers

Jezzus, that is beautiful

Sounds demo pls

I appreciate the video HOWEVER you're looking at nearly doubling your budget with a quality crossover network and binding posts to match the caliber of speaker you made, so a bit misleading. I'll also agree with others that I think a proper tweeter and mid MAY have been a better choice than a full range pro mid. Maybe you can handle that with your crossover?

That's a good operation. I have to cut them out with my router but I don't build that many speakers. I like the way you brace , and rabbit everything.

How do you prevent the copper from oxidising? Fingerprints and stuff will turn dark pretty fast, it's a pain in the ass 😅

The speakers are going to be OK, but the speaker cables gonna bloat. All that energy can't get out!

Wondering if there is a sonic/measurable difference if the passive radiator and active driver are on opposite sides of the cabinet? Would there be a pseudo-cardiod response?

It looks beautiful. How the box looks isn't my priority, although I prefer not looking at something unfinished. I built my subwoofer box (36" x 14" x 18") with opposed 10" drivers and a plate amp. I prefer dual 15" woofers in my speakers so they can play LOUD without distorting while remaining natural sounding. I build tiny houses as a side gig.

Used socks will definitely destroy your nose😅

Nice video. Normal MDF isn't as "seasonally stable" as you think but in a square box scenario it's fine. While building my own speakers which are made from 64 layers of MDF to make a cabinet shape similar to B&W 802s, normal MDF shrank and cracked like you wouldn't believe. Using Shellac-base primer as soon as possible helped but they still cracked. The last pair I built, which I'm still using 3 years later are made from moisture resistant MDF. It really is stable as hell and I wouldn't use anything else. I think it's also a bit heaver/denser than normal MDF too. I'm watching these videos again as I'm getting the itch for building a new pair. I've got a couple of ICE plate amps to go in the next pair.

Beautiful cabinet crafted. What about the sound for the money? Crossovers quality?

May I please have the plans for the beautiful speakers you made in this video? 😊😊they look amazing!!!

Very, very nice cabinet build. Not impressed with the acoustic design. to many small drivers and the mid and high ends should be horn loaded.

I thought wiring in series screws the damping factor.

Will we get an audition? I would love to hear them

I think you should start building generic base modules which people can use on their existing bookshelf speakers irrespective of the brand of the speakers

Is this bass module available as a kit or fully built and the price ??

where is tweeter？

For a relatively expensive build, why not use high end wires? I have used Neotech 12 awg stranded UP-OCC copper hookup wires in my 1TDX for the binding posts and woofer, and 18 awg UP-OCC silver wire for the tweeter connection with excellent results. Of course, the binding posts were upgraded too - cardas CCBP pure copper binding posts being an excellent choice.
