Visaton CLOU / Hi-Fi speakers DIY

The CLOU is a slim-line 2-band column speaker offering real value-for-money as a key feature, as shown in the choice of two WS 17 E - 8 Ohmfor the low-to-medium frequencies and the SC 10 N - 8 Ohm for the higher frequency range. To guarantee balanced overall sound quality using these less-expensive drivers, the two mid-bass units are physically separated from each other and each has its own enclosure. The lower WS 17 E - 8 Ohm is mounted in a 36-litre compartment. This produces a uniform increase in the frequency response from 60 Hz up to 600 Hz. The upper WS 17 E - 8 Ohm, on the other hand, is mounted in a smaller 16-litre compartment, which causes a slight increase in the range of frequencies between 60 Hz and 150 Hz. However, taken jointly, the two mid-bass units create a harmonious bass foundation which deliberately emphasises the frequencies between 60 Hz and 130 Hz. To ensure a seamless transition between the tweeter and the bass drivers, you need a properly balanced damping circuit to cut out any unwanted peaks and resonance.
The result of this unusual combination of drivers and cabinet is a column speaker that has to be seen and heard to be believed and one which produces a sound quality well above its moderate price range.

Nice looking set of speakers! If your happy with the job you did on them and like the sound that all that matters

[@goodsound202]

Now not very happy. I listened to a lot of things.
I make more videos on my Russian-language channel th-cam.com/channels/O2GF-Qk0CUtnlXk-cTsCLg.html

[@yeshecan7]

Good job....inspiring.

[@nobodylabs2879]

inspiring,, someday if i make a speaker box ,i want to copy thats model,,

[@greenbeginner3353]

How did you trim the wood veneer? Your video went from ironing to sanding.

[@dvserzhantov]

ох красота, сам на визатонах делаю

[@hanshraj3747]

Nice

[@snuffpappy]

Do you know of any reason not to place a midrange below a woofer with the tweeter above the woofer? Im looking at modifying some 2 way store bought speakers into 3 ways and can only place the mid under the woofer. Thoughts?

[@goodsound202]

did not conduct such experiments

[@adrito_com]

Good video. Could you tell me the measurements of the box and the speakers. Thank you.

And This jazz song, please?

[@flamingoelectric1410]

I want to know how is the bass is this WS17E is worth for bass quality I have a plan to buy before that I want to know its audio quality

[@goodsound202]

I bought something bigger.

[@wolfje407]

Bye the alto 3c. More sound and muts beter.

[@highcurrent1125]

Did the edges of the veneer magically trim themselves?

[@goodsound202]

no, hands))))

[@anesloudspeakers1960]

👍

[@TheRealShedLife]

I am enjoying this video, but we would really like a list of all the components you used, including the brands, below your description, preferably as links to where they can be purchased or at least descriptions of them. I think this would increase your likes and subscriptions.

[@TheRealShedLife]

Also: your text descriptions are appreciated, but when we pause the video to read them, they're so low that they're covered by TH-cam's play bar.

[@goodsound202]

Well, I will take into account your wishes.
But I bought in Russia, the place of purchase is unlikely to be useful to you.

И по чем все удовольствие? Где шпон можно взять?

[@goodsound202]

Е- шпон магазин

[@electrogeniy]

@@goodsound202 спасибо! 👍

[@zimga]

How long does it takes to build cabinets?

[@goodsound202]

just assemble - one day.
veneer in different ways, depending on the glue, experience.
holes - you need to have a router and experience.
the one who is constantly engaged will collect in a couple of days.

[@HorizonFilmsGermany]

Nice veneer

[@goodsound202]

thank. In fact, it turned out not very. But the main thing here is experience.

[@Trdat]

@@goodsound202 Can you tell us what went wrong, maybe we can learn from your experience? Also, what glue did you use that worked with the iron on the veneer?

[@HeLaNoR]

sorry but i laugh my socks out with ironing the veneer

[@user-lu8ss9ee7l]

А я собираю корпуса на на штапиках.

[@config_sys5950]

Шурупы под ПВА это челлендж. И шпонирование - кровь из глаз... При всем уважении.

[@geokrilov]

Good carpenters skills. But you shouldn't place the coils that way even if Visaton does it so.

[@goodsound202]

I agree. Now I do it differently

[@thomasschafer7268]

Sorry. But the different screws!!

I like the ones on the thumbnail best... a little clickbaity no?

[@goodsound202]

Yes

[@user-gi7dx8zw4i]

[@sissycrystobal2632]

why not D'Apolito align the 2 larger drivers - nothing but improved sound and not by a small margin - this design is just average in all ways otherwise
