Look at the BOM of a typical pair of speakers and you'll realize that you are paying an exorbidant amount for an MDF box, a box that, for the price, could have been made to far better acoustic standards.
That’s a real piece of art. This building method needs a lot of material because each layer requires a big surface to cut from. I would try to create the construction with thinner wood which can be cut with a CNC laser. I would divide the tunnel walls in smaller sections with puzzle connectors on their end’s. You must put them together with a half length offset between the layers to keep it solid. In this way you save material and time.
Fabulous - I love the shapes and the satin finish looks very good. I have a pair of "Carfrae Little Big Horn" Replicas that I built - all the MDF came in CNC sections in a huge crate that still needed glue and machining. I took my time and had to save up to get a professional spray finish. At 1400mm tall with 8 inch drivers they are monsters but I have a big enough room for them. Little big horns have a seperate subwoofer to get just a bit lower.
It was about around 20:08 that I resolves that my suspicions were correct and that you would, in fact, be stopping there. 🤔😱😒 Notwithstanding, sincere gratitude for the video, I learned a lot! 🙏
If you want a substantially larger and broader roundover and you also have a strong enough router, then try to find handrail bits. They're used to shape the top and sides of a stair handrail and the bit for shaping the top is generally a very broad, shallow roundover.
Mate... Absolutely stunning Project! Id love to see your Simulations etc. Do you have them anywhere in a Forum or so? Probably one of the most beautiful Speakers ive ever seen.
Gorgeous build. Only the terminals in that position is not great, always have the cables hanging down visible. I would have put those in the rear somewhere. But gorgeous speakers.
You could also put the speaker terminals at the back out of site and have you thought in the design of putting sound deadening material ??like Bituminous paint to damping down reflections of the back sound wave ??
it was not quite easy to move the terminals back, there were a number of problems, this is my hobby, I am a fan of building a special room with sound attenuation while it is still early.

Amigo tu trabajo es ¡INCREÍBLE ! Dios Bendiga tu ingenio y tu sabiduría. Si aiwa existiera de seguro hiciera altavoces como los tuyos pero iguales jamas..
Honestly wish it were gloss black, looks like it belongs next to a high end piano😂 brilliant and beautiful! Too bad the surrounds on the speaker seem improperly installed into the basket, they dont seem to fold the way they should...
Couple issues: You should flush mouunt the Driver to the baffle, and the inner edge of the baffle where the driver mounts should be rounded off to prevent some resonace.
I would commend you if you used scrap to create those shapes, but routing away the 80% of thick MDFs and standing in the middle of that dust nightmare for hours is just madness.
besides the sound quality ,what really got my attention is where did you learned to finish mdf I assume is MDX to finished mdf the way you did it is amazing the end grain looks flowless you need to make a tutorial on how to finish mdf double like it
Why go through the hassle of making it curved inside? All that achieves is permitting the not-good-sounding harmonics reach the mouth of the horn. Just use angled pieces and the sharp corners will cause reflections, which filter out the harmonics above ~100hz.

Привет! интересная и красивая с точки зрения дизайна конструкция. У меня возник только один вопрос: ни в камере за динамиком, ни в одной из секций рупора не предусмотрено никаких демпфирующих материалов, это так и было задумано? Неужели при расчетах корпуса АЧХ была достаточно ровной при таком исполнении? Или просто вы не стали показывать все? )
Cutoff frequency (lower frequency of configurable horn extension profile 33 Hz) Tuning frequency 40 Hz Horn length after bending design 1950 mm Speaker 6.5 inch Throat area 45 sq cm Speaker volume 0.6 l
I am wondering if the speaker volume is kind too small? I read an article says the volume is cone area divided by 25. So if your cone is 6.5 inch in diameter, then the volume is 8.5 liter. I dont know if the formula is wrong or what?
Работа проделана грандиозная. А какого звуяание? Я собирал обратный рупор на твких же оловах по чертежам производителя. Напол ники. Огромные,тяжелые и с таким мощным басом,что в 15 метрах оч тяжело слушать....стены дрожат.
All of the people going nuts about the side mounted speaker terminals, you would change your mind if there was a nice pair of MIT Cables connected there.
It was clearly seen in the installation video that the baffle surface was not horizontal. Furthermore, it was confirmed that the edge of the Fostex unit was twisted even though it was brand new. Although it is a Japanese manufacturer, it is manufactured in China and the quality control is not accurate. I also bought a woofer, but I called the manufacturer to complain that it was poorly processed. I had it replaced, but the third time it was the same defective product.
Deja vécu ca ,j’achète un capteur pmh de 1.9tdi je le passe finalement a un pote car il avais un besoin urgent, bilan jcomande un vemo il envoie un stark, il tombe en panne avec le capteur de stark. Depuis je refuse cette marque.
great job but i wouldnt call this DIY. this is made in professional environment that "normal" people dont have. even advanced hobby workers dont have this possibilities. Never saw such painting place in a normal homeworkers garage.
Нет. Такие работы делаются для эстетики. Этот парнишка постоянно играет с "огнём" по технике безопасности. Безалаберно устроено рабочее место (если даже фрезерный стол болтается) , элементарного пылесоса не может поставить. Жуть. Очень похоже на Казахстан. Позиционирует себя как сборщик акустики,а по существу полная безалаберность. Увидел приличное место и подумал- НЕ МОЖЕТ БЫТЬ! Неужели?! Нет, всё хорошо- это чужой бокс ,куда он отвозил на покраску свои кривули. Ни одного замера колонки не видел. Страшно? Думаю что да. Увидеть бесполезно потраченное время.
Es gibt formbares MDF. 10 und 12 mm. Ich sehe diese art des Bauens als materialverschwendung an. Von der Zeit mal ganz abgesehen. Btw. Fe Nv Treiber brauchen immer einen Sperrkreis!!!!!!
Good to see people who can appreciate acoustics as both an art and a science. That is where true beauty is found.

It's a horn, you do not line a horn with sound dampening material.
It is a work of art. Is horn load the same as transmission line ?
nice very nice project i love back loaded horn enclosures
Subscribed ! One of the most artistic work I have seen done on a pair of speaker cabinets. 👍👍 How may I contact you, please.
Hi, really amazing. Love your artistic work. Can i buy templates?
price 500 $
500? A zero to much I think 😂
I see an malformation in the surround... @22:22
Very, very nice.
Thanks for sharing.
Do you have any complaints about the suspension of the speaker?
@@diy-sound5763
No
Just observations
@@diy-sound5763 Seems "dents" in the surround could be a......."problem" with , oh never mind.
Great work on the boxes!!!!! Nice vid!!!!
It is a wonderfully formed beauty. The sound seems dry and not very attractive. Do you put in any sound-absorbing material at all?

Maybe should have used a torque wrench on those binding post nuts to make sure they fall out 😅.
Amazing job, truly inspiring.

Does this cabinet change the frequency response of the speaker or actually amplify it or both?
It extendes the low frequences since this type of speaker dont go very low.
Awesome project.
Very beautiful.
Do you sell the plans ?
Thank you ! sell!
@@diy-sound5763 I mean :

how did you come up with the cabinet design, measurements etc..

Merci pour le partage
No bafflestep correction inductor network needed due to the small baffle width? ...
The surround of the driver looks wired at 22:25. Else were very nice Job!
Lovely Job!!!
Excellent 👍👍👍🇬🇷
What is the band playing around 24:39 ? Smooth drumming
Couple issues: You should flush mouunt the Driver to the baffle, and the inner edge of the baffle where the driver mounts should be rounded off to prevent some resonace.

Can we connect somehow and chat? How much to have a pair of these boxes shipped to me?
Hello! where are you from?
If you precut most of your waste close to the lines with a jigsaw that would help the router a ton. Plus the router bit would run cooler.
respect to creativity

You can use also thicker mdf? less wooduse.

Do your ears have damping?
@ speakers not the ears, not the piano or violin, they have their own rules to sound correct.
Сколько ж работы затрачено...а оно того стоило?
Looks like a top notch, however a horn must not conduct high freqs. Only lows and mids up to high mids.
