-
step 1
-Read our tutorial articles to get a detailed picture of what hifi
speaker design is all about.
-Browse the list of loudspeaker manufacturer websites and use
our database of downloadable loudspeaker datasheets to select
your drivers.
-Choose the right design software that suits you best to
calculate your enclosure dimensions and buy everything
you need from a retail shop.
-
step 2 v2
-Assemble your crossover-less speaker and let your lab equipment
(or measurement software) acquire the necessary response
measurements. Use your crossover design software to decide a
crossover network that fits your acoustical targets.
-Browse the list of component manufacturer websites and buy all the
necessary components.
-Use a suitable pcb and your soldering equipment to conclude
your crossover network implementation.
-
step 3
-If you get addicted to hifi speaker design you can try to
broaden your technical background by consulting our
book review section and -why not- browsing the
journals of the existing audio societies.
-You can also get closer to audio enthusiasts' community
through our list of worldwide audio websites,
web-magazines and discussion fora.
Speaker Components
|
Anyone building a HiFi speaker will need a lot of components except for loudspeaker drivers: resistors, capacitors, inductors, crossover pcb's, vent tubes, mounting screws, even some grill cloth! These component may be expensive or not; whatever the choice may be, their selection should be careful so that speaker endurance and reproduction quality are not compromised. Heat dissipation and internal enclosure vibration need to be considered. Links that follow will transfer you to most of the component manufacturers who are in this business today.
