I am already busy with the 3-Way separate enclosures project (link) but still managed to built a set of speakers for my own listening. The idea was to give a vintage look just like the JBL’s and Harbeth’s. So I came u with an idea to combine the looks of both the Legends.
Basically this Enclosure is a 3-way passive design. Crossovers are as usual made by Mr. @Aniket .
The Enclosure is tuned for 35Hz. It has two vents of diameter 3 Inch on the front. The mid has its own sealed chamber. The front baffle where drivers are fitted is removable. The enclosure also has a separate chamber for crossover.
I am using 18 mm MDF sheet + 4 mm Veneer sheet., They were glued together on a 100 TON hydraulic press machine. It was left overnight in pressed condition for bonding. After gluing the Sheet & Veneer, cutting was done. The Joints are cut in 45 Degree to match the grains of veneers. Enough of write up enjoy the built journey.
I am not using any nails or screws for the joints. Instead i have used my Plate Joiner to Join all the joints. All Joints are glued with Fevicol SH and clamped together as seen in below photo.
In below photo you can see a black colored separate chamber on the back that is for Crossover.
Below is the Frame on which Front baffle will be screwed. (Front baffle is removable)
Front baffle with separate chamber for MID.
So many screws.... I also have to take care of my hands... so another investment for this project.
Assembly Photos (The accuracy of matching the grains / lines) Its a very difficult task to work with 4 mm veneer with such accuracy.
The Rear chamber of crossover. It will be covered with transparent Acrylic Sheet. which will have speaker connectors on it. Sorry I forgot to mention earlier. This enclosures will have an option for bi-amping. 1 Pair of Connectors for Bass & 1 Pair for Mids & Highs.
The Finishing tuning part is still pending. And it will take a little long time to complete this project. The Updates on this Project may get delayed as I have to first complete my earlier Project. I made this project in a hurry because i didn't had any speakers for my listening.
