The Monty Python reference is just amazing. I'm honestly extremely intrigued in getting a standard 3D printer to design some proper enclosures for my bookshelf speakers. I've been making crappy subwoofer boxes for a few years, _trying_ to make the best of my knowledge, but I don't have any of the materials or tools to make a good set of enclosures for the speakers, and no equipment to test the performance. Having 2 massive, ghastly, unpainted MDF, hodge-podge boxes on my desk is not great, and I'm definitely not making the best use of the 20cm/8" subwoofer drivers in each of them. For reference, they're 3-way, with a small sealed upper enclosure for the midrange to give it a bit more "presence". This channel is invaluable to DIY sound tinkerers, and is a wealth of knowledge to get into the more advanced ideas for speaker enclosures and getting the most out of the drivers in question. Needless to say, I'm intrigued how the resin box will go once you've got the replacement :)

I have a laser sla printer and I had issues you are having. Orientation is important, print at an angle not flat, though this matters on the surface area. Also, I found you MUST mix or shake up the resin very well right before you pour it into the vat. That makes a huge difference. I think the resin separates, if you keep pouring out un-mixed rasin it will get out of balance, chemically. Shake shake shake! I dig your videos!

I have an AnyCubic Photon SLA printer and I found that maintenance on the film was very important. I had a similar experience with the first few prints. Really good, okay, really bad. Once I learned to clean the film I got 15-30 prints per film instead of the 3-4 that I got with the first sets of film. I found that cleaning the film with isopropal and then wiping it dry with Kimtech wipes between every print helped out significantly.

Just printed a set of these. An interesting experiment for sure, and for such puny speakers it’s impressive the sound you get out of them. That being said I wouldn’t really recommend them, out of all the hexibox projects (I’ve printed several) these sound rather plasticky and there is a distinct tube sound to them. Still, the base extension is totally impressive. and I had a weekend of fun putting it all together, super worth it. But if you’re gonna try just keep your expectations realistic; these drivers are super tiny, and quite cheap, I don’t think any enclosure will really save them from themselves. Of course I could be wrong, and the error might be on my end. Regardless, thanks so much to Hexibass for the incredible content and sharing his work with us all. I bought and learned to 3D print because I wanted to try your projects out and it’s been such a fun/challenging journey.

I made my own transmission line mini speaker before and learned a lot. All comes to the length of the port and speakers resonant frequency. The speaker will be mixed with amplification of higher octave frequency if the port is not converging. Convergence will act as low pass filtering, thus will only boost low frequencies. My 2 inch speaker can make bass equivalent to 4~5inch sealed box woofer, achieving response of 50~60Hz with 1.5m long PVC tube. I also tired to dampen high frequency noise with layers of paper lining inside the tube. Anyway, I think transmission line design is a great start for newbies as it only use simple Physics concept, although the speaker box might be physically huge in the end.

I believe you have the knowledge and the experience to create something outstanding with an incredible value for the money. There are already quite a lot of plans out there, but only few authors are as trustworthy like you.

@poman911 4 жыл бұрын

One thing you have to watch for with these resin printer is that the LCD screen under the build vat can get damage if you have left over resin crumbs in the vat. As the build plate comes down it can push the crumbs into the FEP and into the LCD screen. Net result is an LCD screen with small holes which shows up as really weird 3D prints. I have a Phrozen Shuffle in which I only got 3 models before these problems showed up. I ended up replacing 2 of these LCD screens at $90 bucks each. On the third replacement screen, I bought a tempered glass protector designed for a Wanhao screen and put that screen protector between the LCD screen and the FEP. No more shitty prints with drop outs.

Have you considered large scale fdm printing but using poured 2 part epoxy for the majority of the mass/structure? Basically you would model perimeters for all the positive space then pour to fill them. You could also fill with other pour able materials depending on the properties you wanted. 2 part urethane rubber, Portland cement, epoxy granite, etc.

Try a layer of foam or other absorbent material on the face of the enclosure. Alternatively maybe a sheet suspended internally behind the drivers (firm to the walls but splitting the "chamber" in half) may also help with the beaming and may be more effective. I suspect the first resonant chamber has something to do with creating it unless it is a direct driver construction level artifact.

Some thoughts on those upper band irregularities: Building a small anechoic chamber will help with the accuracy of your measurements. Anechoic measurements never match measurements taken in a space. Also, it is a standard practice to aim the measurement mic directly at the source, although it is a an omnidirectional pressure microphone, they still do have some high frequency directionality due to diffraction from the physical microphone itself.
