Interesting Speaker Build (not mine)

[wizer]

Well when I was looking in to building a set of ipod speakers not so long ago, I came across a project build which I happen to think is really cool:

I'm predicting mixed opinions here. But you can't knock the creativeness.

Seems a lot of work for uggerly.

Hmmm... Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should...

I'm assuming "Interesting" was a well-chosen term.

 

[wizer]

hehe I like it, I think it's inventive and creative. I just hope he doesn't pipper up the finish

 

[maltrout512]

Different.

I love the way he uses the drill press

I've never seen anyone clamp the work piece below the table before :shock:

It's creative and if he finishes it correct it'll likely look quite nice.
I suspect it would look well out of place in most people's houses.

Must admit I quite fancy making a subwoofer into a table for in our lounge - not sure how it'd go down with swmbo though.

If you position the table in the middle of the room then your speaker would technically be in a poor position for bass.

Not really my cup of tea, but I think it's pretty impressive.
Looking forward to seeing it finished.

Interesting, Tom will you put up a reminder when it's finished as I'd like to see how it turns out. Agree that how he finishes it will either make it stunning or rubbish

 

[wizer]

will do, he's updating it about once a fortnight, so don't hold your breath.

Thanks for showing us these Wizer, i really like what he has done.

Dont suppose you know of anyone who has made some headphones do you?

 

[wizer]

out of wood? Nope but that would be cool! :lol:

 

[Beardo16]

I have seen some for sale, just dont like the price :shock:

I could do with a new set of cans

Not to mention that you'd need to drill a hole in the floor to bring the cable up.
Actually subs can work fine in the middle of a room. You (or at least I) really can't tell where deep base is coming from (<60Hz).

added:
Tables in the middle of the room really don't work when I've a 6yr old and a 4 yr old. The table would likely need to go next to one of the arm chairs.
