That rosewood veneer is absolutely gorgeous. Not sure I could have resisted getting their gold or dark grey drivers just for the aesthetic with that beautiful veneer.

@DIY-AUDIO Год назад

Thanks, the chn-50 are only in silver though!!

@fonkenful Год назад

I generally tended towards the copper/gold drivers myself. They look absolutely stunning in Sapele, dark American Walnut and Rosewood. The natural paper coned CHP70s are wonderfully suited to clear coat finishes on either Baltic Birch plywood, or Maple veneer. If you’ve not already availed yourself of the opportunity, I’d highly recommend trying to get your ears on a pair of the MAOPs. The cone treatment is expensive and has a high failure rate, so they are not a cheap driver, but definitely not snake oil.

@chevyimp5857 7 месяцев назад

Cool build... Thanks for taking the time.. where do you buy your veneer ?

@billn2647 Год назад

Great build! I got concerned however when I saw how you cut the panels down on the table saw in the beginning. I would highly recommend using push sticks and not wearing gloves near high-RPM rotating machines as it is a safety risk of being dragged along in with them at worst case. Push sticks can be replaced, not so much your fingers/hand!

@ThomasStanley-c8e Год назад

Something most people don't know; Don't twist mult strand wire when using crimp connectors. And you should never solder or tin wires especially before crimping/camping, seen plenty of these fail because of it.

@DIY-AUDIO Год назад

Everyday a school day!! 👍

@ThomasStanley-c8e Год назад

@@DIY-AUDIO The crimp or clamp, when applied correctly on bare copper, actually bunches up the strands and deforms the copper, which is malleable, and compresses it to form a secure and often quite well sealed connection. This can't happen with a tinned wire as the solder is hard, uneven and won't deform to the same extent creating hot spots on the crimp/clamp. The solder also has voids in it which means when it heats up some of the voids will evacuate and the blob of solder can reduce in size, especially when under pressure. The wire then becomes loose, if not already loose. Twisting the wire and crimping/clamping will prevent it bunching and deforming as it should, this is why we should use ferrules on screw connectors with multi strand wires and multiple conductors. Clearly on a car, after ten years living in the damp uk weather a crimp will corrode and fail. Adding heat shrink, especially adhesive lined is a good idea as it will add another level of sealing and give support. A good crimp however should grip the insulation of the wire providing strain relief. If you're going to solder use solder bucket connectors which will have an additional strain relief on the connector body. Finally copper work hardens i.e. it becomes hard and brittle as it is bent, moved, hit and subjected to vibrations. Heat cycling copper anneals it and it becomes more ductile, this one reason why over tightening screw clamps causes them to work loose, especially when multiple conductors are inserted. Ultimately, use the correct wire size and connection combination. T.E. Connectivity and other manufacturers/suppliers have tutorial videos for this on RU-vid. There is also documentation on their website. I didn't intend to write that much but once I started it kind of flowed. Hope this helps you and others understand what is happening and helps everyone produce high quality and more reliable work.

@doglovemimijumable 5 месяцев назад

I found it! 😂 Then this is Mass load transmission line - Bass reflex in my category, produce deeper bass than normal BR box with better quality, the definition among horn, TQWT, TL are blur but I think they all share the same theory, I just build a cab that goes wayyyyy too deep down to 20Hz@-3dB in near field testing with 6.5” bass driver, maybe not usable but it really can shake！ I’m a fan of Markaudio driver too 👍

@a-matics1831 Год назад

@@DIY-AUDIO okey, hear about this first time. I use plywood allmost time. I have one question more, did you ever use some filler before veneering, filling some deep scrats/ holes, i makes 3 test veneering yesterday by using car 2k filler, snicker wood filler. Test with car filler going wrong totally cause pva cant glue together with 2k fillers, test with wood filler(snicker) glued together, but the contact really weak/ pva glued on filler but when you try remove it, its come loose with filler. So the wood filler is shit too. Now im using router to cut out a bit larger holes and fill them with pice of mdf and a little smaller defects with pva and wood dust or something, its work better. Mybee i dont use right water based fillers but allmost what i found in estonian markets didnt work when you want to finnish speaker cabinets using veneer.

Love the rosewood veneer! When trimming the veneer with the router, If you have have problems with slight splintering the end grain, try a sharp chisel. When you get the angle just right it'll slice through the veneer leaving a perfect edge. Try it, you won't believe how well it works and how easy it is to do! 🤣

You are a very smart man not very many people know to do that with the super glue to keep the particle board from deteriorating where the speakers are being held down very good Trick Use that many times when I build my own speakers and when I built speakers for customer Done not a lot on custom jobs Makes the cabinet last a lot longer from the vibration especially when you have people that love to turn the volume up
