I really like this one, it looks much neater and was much simpler than all the other ones.

@jonathanau5780 7 лет назад

That amp is amazing! I built a BT speaker with help from your videos before, but that amp allows so many opportunities! Thank you!

@KirbyMeetsAudio 7 лет назад

I agree! You can put them in pretty much anything. So much fun!

@user-nf8iz2tp2w 8 месяцев назад

Have you build a 40mm and 50mm plastic box build with 6.5 1/2 marine speakers?

@kylewilliams3306 4 месяца назад

If the product dimensions on a 6.5 150w marine speaker 7.4 x 7.6 x 7.1 inches what should a plastic dimensions be on plastic ammo box to have both the speakers fit on the front for Bluetooth build ?

@Gershy13 7 лет назад

Please keep the How to build your own speaker videos coming! Im mainly worried about the woodworking. What would i need to get started? I want to make a wooden bookshelf speaker. How would i make it smooth and look good? and also be sealed?

@edrickmendez7978 7 лет назад

another nice video..already download the plans..thanks! 👍😄

@user-nf8iz2tp2w 5 месяцев назад

Is there a good black plastic ammo box that fit 6.5 150w marine speakers on. The front ?

@Chase1297 2 года назад

Bout to build one of these w some 1 inch compression horns and 6.5” neo PA mids 😂

@KirbyMeetsAudio 7 лет назад

+Charles Ezan 6 hours at a normal volume! Not too shabby. Thanks for watching!

@watercushion 7 лет назад

I always enjoy your speaker builds! Such cool ideas culminating in a quality end result. Do you think you could apply your same methodology to making headphones? Would love to see your attempt at making headphones.

@gabrielorellana8160 6 лет назад

Kirby Meets Audio I'm thinking to built one like this but in a stronger ammo box, I'm using same speakers u used here, do u think if I add a passive radiator on the back will it sound much better?

@edwardolivares5038 10 месяцев назад

May i ask where I could find those speakers and amp

@brandonmusich 7 лет назад

If I were to build a ported box with a pair of 4" Kenwood KFC1065S that have a frequency range of 45 HZ to 22 KHZ, would it be best to tune the port for 45hz or some other frequency? I plan on using a .50 Cal Ammo Box instead of the smaller .223 or .30 cal.

@lolazubi 7 лет назад

Great video dude, greetings from Argentina!

@KirbyMeetsAudio 7 лет назад

+LOLASO Thank you!

@rvc1rvc1 7 лет назад

Clean build! its a cool little amp with many possibilities. But a little impractical wouldn't you say? I mean, every time you want to play music you got to open the box flip the switch, close the box and only then can you start playing music. And to charge you also need to open the box... I think you could've mounted the amp in a way the charging port could be exposed if you drilled a small hole. Anyways, great video! Your work has inspired me to get into speaker building as well.

@kevinmechler671 7 лет назад

If he wanted to, he could have desoldered the on/ connect button and extended it to be on the outside and mount it through the ammo box, but it seems that he is either too lazy or concerned with cluttering the outside of the box like most people do.

@dubya13207 7 лет назад

I'm curious how good it sounds...I have a friend who would love this!

@intjonmiller 7 лет назад

Alex W. The boxes can flex and resonate badly. The batting helps dampen it (and helps isolate the channels, as the open space inside will tend to blend the left and right channels since they are pushing against the same air volume; the batting helps slow down the air inside enough to minimize that effect, among other benefits). But if you don't push them too hard they're great. Same sheet metal construction as the boxes most people are most familiar with for audio: their cars. :)

@impjig 7 лет назад

YAAAAY!!! I love your build videos

@RenatoPerelopes 7 лет назад

always wonderful

@KirbyMeetsAudio 7 лет назад

Thank you, Renato!

@kadenperce3790 7 лет назад

I am new to the whole speaker building thing, but by using such a weak amplifier wouldn't you not be using the drivers to their full potential? Which is by no means a necessity, but I would like to know why the speaker was designed that way.

@intjonmiller 7 лет назад

Robert Perce Note how much the sides of the can flexed as he drilled. It will flex in use and sound terrible if you run this too hard. Seems like a reasonable setup to me. My only doubt is the Bluetooth reception in a metal can (aka Faraday cage). Or maybe I missed a step for an external antenna of some sort?

@kadenperce3790 7 лет назад

That is true thanks for your input Jon Miller

@borisgelauff6507 7 лет назад

@javierchavez5533 7 лет назад

Hi @Kirby do you think I can get more power out if this Bluetooth amp if I use 4 ohm speakers? You build calls for 8 ohms. Thanks

@cassvirgillo3395 7 лет назад

Hi Kirby, Nice rugged speakers, OD Green, love it. Phil saw his shadow, so, 6 more weeks of Winter, I guess any way you look at it. Keep the builds coming, looking for chip amp reviews coming up. Take care, be good, C. P.S. I like re purposed enclosures and things out of the ordinary, if they lend them selves to good speaker enclosures.

@GiGiMoNN 7 лет назад

молодец! отл работа! nice worck

@supercheekykiwi 7 лет назад

As much as I enjoy these videos (gave it a thumbs up by the way). I miss a running commentary about what you are doing and maybe the odd tip or two.

@onshisan 7 лет назад

There's a link to the build plans in the video description... duck head... LOL.

@Orkas666 7 лет назад

some tips: Do not use ammo can for boom box build. If you do keep in mind that these boxes are hard to cut threw. After cutting, clean off any metal particles of the can, because they will stick to your magnetic speakers and trust me its near impossible to scrub them off. And last tip to keep it short insulate box with any type of rubber like material to prevent rattling sounds. Almost forgot. Use bigger god damn speakers :D

@diyboomboxesintexas2805 6 лет назад

@Kirby Meets Audio - any chance for europeans to get their hands on that bluetooth amp? parts express won't deliver, ony US ground shipping... thanks for an answer!

@djsndcx 7 лет назад

try and see if Shipito ships it.

@rljasdad 7 лет назад

Can't get it to Canada either. Even Amazon uses Parts Express as their supplier, not available in Canada :-(

@jdreichenbach 5 лет назад

I was wanting to build an Ammo Box Bluetooth speaker using a .50 caliber box, which is about twice the size of this or more, and use 4" Pyle or Kicker speakers, but keep it as simple as possible and be rechargeable. Would this method also work or should I look at doing it differently instead of using the $20 rechargeable Bluetooth receiver amplifier that is in this video?

@BonkersKoala 7 лет назад

Anything special I would need to consider if I built a triangular enclosure for a speaker?

@tamastenhaaff2291 6 лет назад

How low does this speaker get becuise im planning on pairing 2 of these up with some passive radiators

@Benja-ul4ms 7 лет назад

would you suggest to build it even though I do not live In the US?

@muzammilsaleh3880 7 лет назад

You should build a magnetic speaker grill. it would look sick with some neodymiums. Just an idea.

@zemont 7 лет назад

hi Kirby , sorry to bother you but one quick question. I have 2 Hertz coaxial 2way speakers for my car, but right now I don't have use for them no more. would they make for a good Bluetooth speaker with those class d amps from eBay? and a passive radiator? is like having a tweeter and a woofer in the same spot wich sound good to me

@djsndcx 7 лет назад

A passive radiator will only work when it's used with the correct speaker and enclosure. Otherwise, you'll risk ruining your speakers because they act as if they're in an infinite positively charged baffle.

@MCsCreations 7 лет назад

Sorry to bother you, but what is that black box you put inside?

@napusoul 7 лет назад

Kirby! Will these work for this build - Dayton Audio PS95-8 3-1/2"

@DimONMINIpeople 7 лет назад

Really cool amp! You did not have that in the unboxing 😜

@KirbyMeetsAudio 7 лет назад

Haha, nope! Little surprise.

@ro63rto 7 лет назад

Nice. I have a few of these boxes but bigger. Might try this. One thing. BT amp is 3 watts per chan at 4ohms BUT the speakers are 8ohms so you only get 1.5 watts per chan at the speakers due to increased resistance? Correct?

@sy7024 7 лет назад

ro63rto Yes, that's about right! So if anything, since you said you have bigger boxes, you should try to get a larger amp.

@ro63rto 7 лет назад

+Naseem Mohamed I have the 2 x 25 watt Bluetooth amo based on tda7492. was going to build a speaker using Eminence book and scale it down but I like the ammo box idea.

@granaderoNc 7 лет назад

that 2x3watt amp at 4 ohm can handle the 12watt 8ohm speakers wouldnt it be pushing it to much?

@sy7024 7 лет назад

Narcizo Chavez Yes but not because there is more power. Since it is a higher impedance there is less power for the speakers. It's output is more controlled so it would work fine, however they still don't match. This just means that it is underpowered but it is very controlled because of the high impedance

@robbietaylor7202 Год назад

What amp was used in this?

@williamclark9743 Год назад

Would be great if you played some music. Design looks great though.

@jnm2010fly 6 лет назад

Great video and enjoy your channel. I've made one of these and mine can get pretty loud, but with it playing loud (at work in the shop) I can hear the handle rattling (drives me nuts). Would you have any ideas on how to keep the handle from rattling/vibrating?

@jdreichenbach 5 лет назад

joe ortega Im thinking of building one and if so I would do a paracord cobra braid wrap along the handle.

@jordee7069 2 года назад

Let's see, soul of a pitcher, take a neodymium magnet and fix it.

@stijnvanaken1748 7 лет назад

You did a really nice job, but the ammo box is made from a thin layer of metal. Isn't that flexing. Maybe you can put wood on the inside and that is probably going to make it stronger and make it sound better (sorry for bad english I'm dutch) And keep doing your builds they are really nice

@KirbyMeetsAudio 7 лет назад

For sure! That would probably increase the audio quality a bit. This is intended for casual listening and it sounds pretty dang good for that. Thanks for watching!

@stijnvanaken1748 7 лет назад

Kirby Meets Audio of course I'm keep watching because you make good videos

@ASTEROIDALAIN 7 лет назад

HI I Have 7, speakers that are 2 inches. 20 watts to 80 watts- some. 4 to 8 Homs. that I want to put together in one enclosed box. that I want to power them with my home stereo that is 300 Watts how should I wire them series or Parallel. ?

@djsndcx 7 лет назад

Make sure when you calculate your impedance you don't go lower than 4 ohms and don't go higher than 8, max acceptable is 16. Don't use a multimeter to measure impedance as a multimeter measures resistance and not impedance.

@ASTEROIDALAIN 7 лет назад

DJSNDCX thanks I'll try that

@charleywaynehinkle6358 7 лет назад

hey i have the 50w x2 bluetooth amp im running a crx 303 passive crossover. it starts making a popping noise when the volume gets high. do i not have enough power for the crossover or is something wrong.

@kevinlivingston9563 7 лет назад

charles hinkle what wattage and impedance are the speakers? How many amps does your power supply have?

@charleywaynehinkle6358 7 лет назад

Kevin Livingston i got that cheap 50w x 2 bluetooth amp and a 24v 5a power supply i hooked up 1 4 ohm tweeter. its that cheap red ebay bluetooth board like 12 bucks

@djsndcx 7 лет назад

Then don't turn it up that high. The heatsinks are barely enough for the chips and the chips tend to distort quite badly just over halfway because they're not genuine TPA's or TDA's.

@jigneshpadhiyar2381 7 лет назад

pls know what type of material use with name & image.

@austinwillets5115 2 года назад

how long does the battery last?

@SquarebodyShitbox10 6 лет назад

how long will that last on a single charge?

@igor.oliveira 7 лет назад

does the bluetooth range decrease because of the metal housing?

@Blober112 7 лет назад

It would for sure, can't say how much but it would be worse off inside the box than outside the box

@seivyjk 7 лет назад

I like pretty much every building video you did. But this one, i'm not sure i understand it. There is no building (just 2 holes), the sound is probably horrible. It could be cool to build a wood box inside (stronger and better quality sound). Anyway, can't wait to see you next video.

@justinkelly3927 Год назад

So just put 2 speakers in a box and start playing my music? Heck ya I was under the impression I needed batteries and Bluetooth stuff

@trolojo 7 лет назад

Hey Kirby. Nice video. What are your thoughts on a permanent outdoor speaker? Let's say for a hot tub / pool area or a deck? Thanks.

I actually have a very very old ammo box from my grandfather who served in the war not gonna use it for a speaker thought 😆

@refugeinc.159 7 лет назад

I'll never understand why people use things like ammo cans and coolers for a boombox. They're not ideal for audio at all.

@KirbyMeetsAudio 7 лет назад

Because fun

@refugeinc.159 7 лет назад

Fun is building your own purpose-designed box out of wood, not drilling two circles in something metal and attaching speakers. Oh well, to each his own I guess.
