This time, I'll make another modification to the FT710 external speaker, and go over the low cut filter and tone controls like I should have in the first video.

I think drilling the holes improved it!, at least that's what it sounds like on my end.

I have a 710 as well. To me, the external speaker seemes a gimmick, but stuffing the enclosure made it sound better. I might have to do that myself.I'm very interested to hear the results if you replace the driver.

i replaced my factory ext speaker with a small amp and book shelf speakers, so much better with or without the aess on

@Nick_G7IZR 5 месяцев назад

I thought the external speaker was only responsible for the highs (which is why it faces forward) and the internal speaker dealt with the lows. So air movement of the external one wouldn't be much of an issue would it? Have you looked at replacing the internal speaker?

Want a good sounding speaker ? Open up the speaker housing. All that empty space in there ? take an old t shirt, or similar cotton material and stuff it into the empty space. Bam, sounds 100 % better

:) I do think it sounds better, very strange the way they mounted the speaker! Isn't it possible to hot glue the driver to the plastic face (easily remove hot glued items with alcohol) and omit the steel frame completely? The shape does match the rig quite nicely. 73 from the Netherlands

what about an external equalizer, with external loudspeaker, so you are the boss of the sound. Depending on the transmission modes you could set the sound you like best.

I'm using Voicemeeter potato for that with my logitech pc speakers 2.1 and that works very well.

Sounds like yeasu got it backwards. The bass needs to go to the eternal speaker.

I found using the internal and external speaker combo more hype than anything else. Totally useless. I turned the internal speaker off. I did go into the menu and change the treble, base and mid tone settings and only use an external speaker that I had laying around the shack. I purchased the Field version. Barry, KU3X

Interesting test. Internal speaker sounded distorted as if there is not enough throw in the voice coil. Stuffing+Drilling did sound better but does not address the internal speaker distortion. Might be better to convert the external speaker into a full range transmission line with free-air resonance around 100hz and shutoff aess?

Looking to purchase the 710, without the speaker, with the intention of hooking up to a set of 3.1 desktop speakers with treble/bass control. Is there a feature to turn off the radio’s internal speaker?

@ricksshop 4 месяца назад

The AESS can be turned all the way down which turns off the internal speaker in the radio.

Awesome thanks for sharing!

@sc20910 6 месяцев назад

Confused, maybe I didn’t see or hear correctly- when you say stuffed, does that mean you put sound dampening material inside the enclosure? Also I would have imagined lots more varied spectrum of reflection interference when there is more sound coming from the enclosure itself, which would presumably happen with the extra holes added. I also am highly confused why yaesu would not have moved the low frequencies to the external speaker instead of leaving them in the radio speaker. Shouldn’t this have been the case, similar in nature to moving bass frequencies to a woofer? As an aside, I liked the sound of stuffed external.

He's not talking about Duramat. He is talking about Poly Fill. I believe if Yaesu used the internal speaker as the low end " Bass ". Then without the SP-40 external speaker or FT710 FIELD. The internal speaker would still be all low end bass. I understand what your saying though. Yaesu should of also added another AESS menu to change the treable and bass from internal to external. I really don't care for the internal. Of course the external needs upgraded also. All that said. I'd rather give up the AESS. And have roofing filters in the FT710. I personally like the FTDX10 and FTDX101D better. I did poly fill the external speaker. It helped a little. It's an odd no tabs 4" speaker. And I don't have that style on hand to change out to. Now I still got a SP-10 991/A external speaker. I had a better speaker to upgrade it and poly fill. The SP-10 also has a electrolytic capacitor inside. To act as a super cheap cross over/ or tone just a bit. I put a switch on it. So it can bypass or run through the cap.

I have to confess, the speaker for my 710 has never come out of the box. Only bought it for portable, but even the 7610 in the shack only ever gets used with a headset. Still, I’ll be interested in the results, especially given the fact you can buy ready made aftermarket stuff for the expensive iCom external speakers from DX Engineering!

@nine7295 3 месяца назад

Ah you could have waited for the 710 Field without the external speaker and saved $100.

@ammocraft 3 месяца назад

@@nine7295 Yes, true...except no-one knew it was coming at that point, plus, I suspect it will have better value as an AESS version anyway, should I ever sell.

@bg8fairpoint610 5 месяцев назад

If you're using a low pass filter whether it be 700 or a thousand the remaining audio has no base to it so if nothing below 700 or a thousand goes to the external speaker you can muffle amid or a high but you can't add base cuz it's not there if I'm hearing what you're saying correctly

могли бы внутрь блок питания установить, места вполне достаточно

I will just use a high quality book shelf speaker

@GoonyMclinux 4 месяца назад

I use a mini amp and some $29 pyle speakers, sounds amazing.

@andy071steptsov7 5 месяцев назад

Speaker that comes with ft-710 is cheap and poor quality. The only way u can improve its sound is to cover the inside walls with 3-4 mm rubber material. Not sure if u ever tried it in yr home-made speakers, but this should work the best
