The design and drivers used in this speaker build project is inspired by a few manufacturers that have used similar off-the-shelf drivers in their commercial designs. Some of these commercial speakers retail in the region of US$4000 for a pair. Considering that the total cost for the drivers I am using are less than US$200, I set out to design my own set of speakers using some of these drivers. I am super happy with the outcome. These speakers are now my favourite to listen to right now, and I think they will be for some time to come!

IMPORTANT NOTE: The Fountek FE85 driver seems to be either out of stock, or discontinued. Either way, I am working on an update for this speaker with a new driver, and will be releasing updated build plans hopefully within a couple of months from the time of posting this comment. In the meantime the current BUILD PLANS have been removed from my webshop. I apologise for the inconvenience, however these are circumstances beyond my control.

Thanks for the update,, it is really appreciated to know you are working on an update as I am near to be finished with my build where only the fountek drivers and corresponding holes are missing Let’s hope you can find a good substitute driver with minimal impact and still high performance. Crossing my fingers; It looks really great already ...

I'm just at the start of my build so plenty of time to play about with an alternative

I am reluctant to go with the Fountek drivers, since they seem to have a lot of supply problems right now, without really being able to say whether these drivers will even be available again.I have found a Tang Band driver that can work. But right now I can't comment if it will be a drop-in replacement, still in the process of testing.

one here who has the speakers version 2 for over an year as main speakers dive them with a marantz pm7001 the soundstage is great an not so deep as with some jbl 830 for comparison the voices are in front of you but no piercing to your head ,i think is because of the side woofer the good point is that they are not create fatigue after long hours of listening they need a sub to hit below 35 hz wife aceptance is verry high i`m working on the crossover to lower the cross freq. i believe that the mid driver can go lower still keeping the original crossover just in case

From a fellow speaker builder, I love the build.I go out of my way to build weird and different speakers, just because I am bored of building what's expected.I have done something similar, except with a 6 1/2 and a transmission line /folded horn type box. Height and width seem similar.It's the fun of squeezing every last ounce out of what you have built.

I used very linear microphones to record these, not the camera mic, so thats why the camera is stationary. This way it gives you a very good linear and consistent response of what each speaker sounds like in its position in the room.

I think essentially this is how the manufacturers make their speakers. For many commercial reasons, the retail price price ends up being many multiples of base cost. Therefore if you have the gear, the time, knowledge, money and temperament, you can have something like these speakers for a fraction of the cost of commercial units, and much the same sound. Remember that manufacturers invest many $$ in R&D and expensive production equipment. These speakers come from a dude in his workshop, but that doesn't mean you can't end up with a hefty slice of the sound of a commercial unit. And, the big attraction is the feeling of accomplishment you get from a project like this. I very much enjoyed this. Wish I had what is needed to make the things. They're very appealing to me for many reasons...

I have found that with side firing woofers its beneficial to make the speakers a 2.5 way instead of a 3-way. That is having the 2 front driver behave as a full 2-way and have the side firing woofer lowpassed to fill in the bottom end maybe up to 200 Hertz

This particular design is very unique. I have 4 old acoustic reasherch speakers with 8 inch side woofers on one pair and 10 inch on the other set. These unique designed side mount woofer speakers actually out performed way way way better than the JBL floor speakers I used to have. Not by a little, I mean blown out of the water. Those JBL speakers had dual 8 inch woofers. I love this design cause it seems to have an enormous bass frequency. And saves space cause the are a slimmer speaker vs. The traditional front mounted design.

Bought the plans and built two sets! ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM! They sound beautifully deep, and have a directional but all encompassing soundstage that just makes you want to keep listening. Great design. If you have the tools and the know how, I can not recomend them enough! Oh, and while I plan to get an amp with some more wattage; I am currently powering them through a JVC A-S5 that is only 30 watts a side. They sound lovely in my living room.

Very nice build! I recomend to make chamfer inside of the mid driver hole and if bass driver is playing so high, then there as well. This midrange is so tiny, basket will not reach much to the box, so chamfer will reduce reflections coming back to cone from hole walls. Also, you can but that self- adhesive foam what you used to sealing on the driver baskets to reduce them ringing.

Speaker design is something that has always fascinated me. I'm listening through Bluetooth and KZfaq compression, but that sounds nice and tight. Currently using a Lepy 4 channel mini Amp with 2 Pioneer 3 way 6x9's in tight stack layered enclosures, capped at around 80 hz and an Old School 10" SPL Sub in its original enclosure also Filtered at around 80 Hz and bridged over the rear channels. Not massive power but enough out here in my Workshop without annoying the Neighbours.

The Tangband W5-1138SMF in a 9L BR cabinet, but with the Dayton RS125-8 for mids and the Dayton DC28F for highs. I already built the crossovers, first time I designed my own (using VitruixCad). I did end up using a 2nd order low-pass for the W5-1138-SMF. I'm looking forward to building the cabinets and listening.

Hi, i bought these build plans and just finished in building these fine speakers. The sound is very impressive and of a clearness i ve never heard before. I opted for a white speaker design with chalky varnish and a clear satin cover.

Just bought your Build Plans for this project. Can't wait to start. Although it's very comprehensive, I would have liked to see the projected frequency response from the crossover sim and the bass response from the box and a measured frequency response. I know they are on your site, but would have loved to see them in the guide as well. For the rest; keep it up!

You picked nice music content for the video. I see the link to the music site but a list of music used would be epic. The speakers --- Top notch. As stated by others I would love to hear it live.

I'd be very interested in a 3 way active studio monitors (should sound flat and unflattering). But I'd imagine it's pretty complicated, as it's a different standard in quality.

Nice build! Just a small tip , use piece’s of excess wood as a clamping shim when gluing. It has the advantage that you don’t eventually have clamping marks on your work piece it protects the edges and you have a better force dispersion on your gluing areas . Especially when gluing bigger areas as by veneering or to compensate the use of less clamp’s. In our workshop we say you can never have enough clamp’s ! 😉

Thanks! This happens sometimes, but often I don't bother, and have not had many occasions where the clamp made marks, but it is good for spreading the clamp force.

Great Job. I recently built a set of small bookshelf speakers and used some more exotic non paper backed veneer... what a hassle. I would suggest you take a look at the Titebond branded cold press glue, it was recommended to me as it should have more temperature stability with veneer.
