LoVees Speaker - Part 3 - Markaudio CHP-70 Fullrange | Tang Band W-5 | Dayton ND-20 | DIY Crossovers

- In this video I show how did I built the LoVees Full-Range Speaker metal legs and passive Crossovers. I extracted the FRD and ZMA files and used the XSim crossover software to make the crossovers. I'm showing how did the speaker perform after ready with multiple frequency response graphs using REW.
This design counts on a Markaudio CHP-70 Fullrange, a Tang Band W-5 side firing subwoofer and a Dayton Audio ND-20 FB Ambient Tweeter. The result is a full sound in a compact box. The speaker has an "in room" frequency response that goes from 27 Hz to over 20 KHz. Really surprising for a low cost small box.

I’m in Canada and have been building speakers for over40 years . I just wanted to say I love your builds and the quality you bring to them .
Hey there my friend! Thanks for the words! I really appreciate it!!
One of the best smallish speaker projects on the internet! Very well done, sir!
Wow, thanks! Appreciate it.
That was an innovative design that looks dynamite. Well worth the time. Great job.
Hey Mike! Thanks my friend! Appreciate it.
With the Fountek drivers NLA (due to the designer having a falling out with the China manufacturer), MarkAudio drivers are getting their chance in the sun, which they really deserve. The design ethos of a lightweight aluminum cone on a full range speaker is something that has some magic, and if the bass range is taken away then the full range speaker can operate as a really excellent combination midrange-tweeter unit. It is bass excursion that takes away the most sound quality from a full range speaker, and a good full range speaker like this combined with a low-bass dedicated woofer can mimic the desirable sonic characteristics of a three-way speaker in the midrange. A tweeter offers a bit more refinement in the top end, so a true three-way is still ideal, but the augmented full range speaker as a mid-tweeter in a two-way system is the way to get the most 'three way magic' in a two-way system.
Thanks for the input my friend!! It’s been a lot of fun and a learning experience with those drivers! I love it!
Another very fine video! I love seeing your design and build process - how things interact, and how there is "give and take" between the physical, electrical, and the acoustic output. Edit - and welding / metal fabrication, too! Great work, sir!
Hey Neil!! Good to see you here always my man! Thanks a lot.
@@sonnoradesign I am going over to the Dark Side - I ordered a CNC machine a couple days ago! 😁
@@NeilBlanchard haha! Wow! That’s amazing. Might the force be with you…
Feel good my man ! continue to bring us your lovely videos ❤ all the best from ISRAEL
Hey Ran, thanks my friend!! Hope you are ok there and the situation resolves soon.
As the great Steve Miller has said, "Lovee dovee, lovee dovee, lovee dovee all the time" and who am I to disagree ?
They look very impressive Bernardo, as per your usual!
Mark Fenton knocks out some killer full-range drivers with metal cones under the Markaudio brand. If you ever get the chance, have a listen to Pearl Audio`s Sibellius. They are a mass loaded tl cabinet and will blow your mind !
Obrigado once again Bernado, well done mate, stay safe 😎
Hey Bert!! Thanks again my friend! I’ve seen some reviews on the Sibelius but never had the chance to hear them!! 😎
Great video again Sonnora. Just finished my own DIY project using the Dayton audio Epique E180HE and the Dayton audio RST28F after all the measuring and crossover tuning I like them a lot ❤. Thanks for getting me exited for DIY
Hey there my friend!! I’m happy for you dude!! Sounds great!!
Thank you for the inspiration! CHP-70-Gold Gen3 and W5 have been ordered. Let's see what the outcome going to be.
Great!!! That’s what I’m talking about! Let me know how it goes.
Me gusta este canal por el trabajo que hacen, siempre buscando un rendimiento de alto nivel acústico, no importa si está en inglés, pero entiendo un poco, excelente.
Hey Richard! Muchas gracias!! Ya vuelvo con más vídeos!!
I myself still use speakerworkshop I've tried xsim rew combo but just find speakerworkshop much much quicker and easier for me... one thing I'm sure you can do in xsim also to get the real offset instead of measuring which is never accurate because the offset is never where you think it should be, is to take your far field measurement of both drivers playing at the same time then the nearfirld of both than adjust the off set so the phase and measurement overlap in a graph with all three measurements around the crossover point... When I do this the modeled crossover is exactly what will be measured so there's no need for me to do a real-world measure till its how I want it... Of course there's sometimes small tweaking after that.
Always great videos keep it up!!!
Yeahhh! That’s great input! Thanks my friend!!!
Great build. What a curve😉. They do look like Wall-E with the stand.
Haha! Right! Thanks my friend!
Damn the legs were a lot of work. Good job!
Haha. It is man! I like welding though. Getta practice more for sure!
Well... no more waiting. Nice project as always Bernardo!
Hey Doug!! My friend! Great to see you here again. Hope it’s all good around there.
@@sonnoradesign
Eh ... you know ... 3 steps forward 2 steps back ....
@@Douglas_Blake_579 Let’s keep moving my friend!!! Never stop!
With the legs the speaker reminds me of these one-eyed minions.
Haha! It makes sense!!
Hi Bernardo, nice video as usual man ! LoVes are stunning.
Hey Gerard! Thank you my friend!
The Klezmer music was a nice touch.
Thanks my friend!
26hz is bizarre! Cool build mate!
Thanks my friend!!!
I wish you'd put a link in So we can hear the speakers in your living room or whatever. I guess you wouldnt have to do it as part of your program but maybe like I said just put a link down below so we can hear them if we choose.. I sure would like to hear what you put together after each project is finished...
Just a suggestion...
Thanks Brice. I’ll start doing that. You are not the only one asking!!
You should be making a fr speaker with SB Acoustics SB20FRPC30-8, it’s a phenomenal speaker for the price. It’s even better than CHR-120 for half the price. Hope you will consider it, are curious how your enclosure’s gonna look with your unique design.
Hey Jonas!! Thanks man. I have a pair of those here. Coming soon!!!
🥰
Great build! l could find all info in the 3 parts except components and values for the crossovers. What should I use?
Hello there. I plot the crossover on the screen at around 20:20 min on the video. Check it out. It shows the values for each part. Thanks for watching
Do you sell the detailed plans for this speaker? I would be interested
Thank you for the video
Hello Neil. I don’t have it ready. One day yes, it will be available, for now you can use the info in the description. I can help if you wanna make it.
Muito legal o seu trabalho, parabéns!
Valeu Marcos! Obrigado pela presença aqui!!
xover at 20:22, very simple (relatively inexpensive)
That’s right. Remember that Tweeter has reversed polarity!!
I may copying the way you did rear mounted tweeter
Hey There! Thanks for watching! Just copy. It works pretty nicely! Remember to reverse the polarity!
Hi sonnara I’ve been watching your videos and you bring me to this amazing hi-fi system world. A couple months ago dedicated to built my speakers I had used components from budget procjct with tcp-115 and viva tweeter.(I just needed to know how would they perform, I was pleased with the results but know I feel I need sth more , more detail and better mids ) . Now when I’m slightly better at woodwork I would like to build new speakers , this project looks astonishing and the curve looks nice and they are affordable, but how about dynamics of speakers and the soundstage, will it be worth the effort 😅😅.
I also build my gainclone amp class ab - you need to make a fanpage where I would post pictures how speakers and amp turned out 😅😅
That’s great input Miko!!! I’d suggest getting the Vifa woofers as well. I’ve heard good things about it. Or a pair of SB acoustics. Those are good bang for the buck and great response!!!
Hey Bernardo! what do you do with all these speakers? Do you have a shop or something or what?
I sell some eventually, but I have a bunch here already!!! Hehe
@@sonnoradesignhello I'm interested in picking up a set if you had some extra that you were trying to get rid of. Also, would be interested in having a shot at the amplifier / preamp if that came up for sale...
Hey Brice. Are you in Los Angeles?
Tengo una pregunta. Come se dice "all right guys" en español?
Hahah. No lo sé!!
Cool design, I would have opted for bi-amp with dsp crossover to make things a little easier.
What do you use...?
@@attainableaudio4533 I would use Dayton Audio KABD boards just for convenience, even though they have not the best amp circuit I feel they are acceptable enough and they are super versatile.
I’m gonna get into mini dsp at some point! It’s a good idea!
Hi u can bilut a speaker 12 Inc bass n midrange .how much is the price
Hello there. I’m not taking orders right now my friend. Sorry
😊👍👍
Thanks for watching!
You should call the "the minions"
Hahah. Never thought about it but yes!!!
Whats happened to the sound test. Crying.
I ,., gatta,, get these. Mark audio speakers, every body seems to use mark drivers in very. Pricey,, speakers
They're good drivers! used them in two build recently!
Yep, I've used the metal cone version of these, in fact they're hooked up to my little stereo channel tv setup right now.
The CHRs right? I do like them a lot.
Cool!
Sure Rob. I really like those fullranges. Very well built and sounds amazing!
