I think the recording microphone was probably below the tweeter level so seems that way. If you get on Twitter I posted the STLs, schematics and response plots. Cant li k here 'cos URLs get blocked.

@MEatRHIT2009 3 года назад

I'm not sure what you're listening on but the bass response was horrendous. It could be the mic, but the response graphs look less than ideal it basically drops off at 150Hz and then again at 60Hz which is a extended bass shelf alignment.... but normally you compensate for that in the crossover if you're building a full range speaker. Some subs can get away with that alignment but on a full range it's hard to do especially if the woofer doesn't have a ton of xmax to play with. That distortion you're hearing is the woofer exceeding xmax, it's bottoming out. I'm glad he's happy with them but they don't seem well thought out on the acoustical side

@Audio_Simon 3 года назад

@@MEatRHIT2009 The woofer response plot for the crossover simulation was measured 'windowed' to get a cleaner response high up. That's why it shows little bass extension. The actual extension will go to about 35hz which you can see in the 'Large vs Slim' comparison image 👍 The woofer did seem to be moving a lot! It must have been crazy loud as that woofer is no joke! Either that, or there are air leaks still, or the mic was overloaded, or the amp was clipping.

@@1234fishnet Everybody has hidden talents, some are just more hidden than others. Basically everyone has something they are good at, but some have never had an oppertunity to discover what they are good at. And that is a waste. Basically, this is why a propper school eductation is so important (Especially here in South Africa, where rural education is at a very basic level.) It allows a person to experience a deverse number of activities, to find out what they love, and what they are good at. Myself, I have yet to discover all that I am good at. That is why at my age (48!) I still try to learn new stuff every day. Long winded answer.... Like David Eddings said in his one book, {By now, you know, it takes me 100 pages to clear my throuht)

@picassoimpaler3243 3 года назад

Im sure this is probably said somewhere else. but I would suggest putting a subsonic filter (highpass set in the receiver) on the speakers right below wherever the enclosure is ported to. A ported box will "unload" below the resonant frequency and loose control of the driver (the speaker moves a LOT with no volume to make it worth it) It will allow you to turn it up higher and will have less distortion and sound better while youre at it =) Loved this project though! I am doing something similar at the moment to test out a new idea for my car!

The sand used might not have been the best for this purpose. Paver (aka polymeric) sand is coated with a binder which is activated when wet. I'm not sure this will be a problem or not, but it sounds like you wanted "Play sand".

@connorjohnson4402 3 года назад

Like the speakers alot but a few questions. Why not use the HDMI cable for sound or the other digital inputs? Also, why is it set on all channel sound as opposed to regular stereo? The way you had it is playing as dual mono as opposed to left and right. You should really choose the setting of direct or pure direct then there is no chance for the AVR to be causing any issues with the signal of the sound. The speakers sound bass-heavy so maybe there is something with the receiver's settings that is causing it. Plus that's a little steep for that particular unit especially since they are known to have the hdmi boards die. If you have them bi-wired why not use the multi-channel input and set it up to run as bi-amped? you can do away with the crossover but you need the software and know-how.

@MMuraseofSandvich 3 года назад

The soldering was as neat as it could have gone freehand (I probably would've made a bigger mess, which is why I use perf boards at a minimum). If you want more confidence in your joints, remember, MOAR FLUX.

@pnwRC. 3 года назад

@3D Printing Nerd If you sourced the sand from Home Depot, there is a great chance that it was mined & packaged at Icon's pit in Auburn Washington. They (their parent company) has the contract to supply the majority of the sand & gravel aggregate materials at Home Depot stores across the nation! I only know this tidbit as I worked at Icon for 3 years. With very few exceptions, all of Home Depot's material is supplied by them.

@thatunknownguy2680 3 года назад

You should go to your local auto parts store and buy a few cans of rattle can bed liner, then paint them. It'll give it a nice look and seal up all of the cracks and give the enclosures some strength. Also, it'll help with the low end of the woofers.

@3DPrintingNerd 3 года назад

Oh holy cow, that's a FANTASTIC idea! I love the idea of how that would look.

@thatunknownguy2680 3 года назад

@@3DPrintingNerd it looks great the way it is. I use bed liner on all of my enclosures for improving the sound, but it also looks really cool. You can try a few different brands. Some give a thick textured look and some give a smooth finish. You may have to use some self etching primer first. I'm not sure how good it would stick to that filament, but it sticks well to PLA.

@vinnycordeiro 3 года назад

Simon, being an English person, was most likely influenced by Doctor Who and made some Dalek speakers. EDIT: that also explains the 50Hz tone: that's the frequency of mains line in England, Joel should have used 60Hz for the sub break in. Or not, I may be speaking rubbish here. It's a long time since I've been interested in audio projects.

@DaveDarin 3 года назад

ONKYO was a really great product back in the 80s and it looks like that unit is from that approximate time period. I have some audio equipment from back in the 80s, Bose 901 speakers and a variety of other audio stuff, all still works and sounds great. But, today you can get tiny Bose speakers that also sound great and take up 1/50th of the space.

@connorjohnson4402 3 года назад

Yea definitely not from the 80s or 90s since it has an HDMI port. While not outright horrible, these receivers are not considered very good overall and would not be something to use as an example for a company. They had alot of problems with the HDMI board which is just a video signal but once it dies it renders the entire unit unusable. While I respect your opinion but I have to disagree with the idea of the Bose speakers sounding great. They are way too expensive and there are much better options for way less that sound as good and even better. There's only so much you can do with a tiny cube with only one single speaker driver.

@DaveDarin 3 года назад

@@connorjohnson4402 Ah. The ONKYO'sm from the 80s and early 90s were rated very good. BUT since you said it has an HDMI then yes much newer. I have not heard much about the brand, especially more recently, so I bet the quality has gone down.

@DaveDarin 3 года назад

@@connorjohnson4402 I actually do not have those tiny cube Bose speakers. I have only seen them demo'd. Like I said I have mostly old school equipment so I run Bose 901's and 601's. In fact I play the guitar, used to play professionally but no longer. I even have my guitars and amps from the 70s. Start, Tele, and Les Paul and I play through a 66 Fender Twin. I do have an older Bose Wave radio, the larger unit. Bought it used, decent sound, not sure I would brag about it but Just use it to stream SIRIUS over Alexa. At least I am not just using the speaker on Alexa.
