JOSER

Project Category:
Portable Speakers

Project Level:
Intermediate

Project Time:
1-8 Hours

Project Cost:
$100 – $500

Project Description:
Hey Guys, I am still learning, but I wanted to build a portable speaker that didn’t look like anything you would typically see in a store, so I built an ammo can speaker.

Design Goals:
To make a portable speaker that would be loud enough for a party and have the ability to be used anywhere.

Driver Selection:
Polk 5.25 Book Shelf Speaker w/ Tweeter

Enclosure Design:
50cal Metal Ammo Can

Tips & Tricks:
To cut the big holes make sure, if your lucky enough, to have a good hole saw or jig saw. These can be little frustrating to cut.

Conclusion:
The speaker works great! I took it camping and the batteries lasted for days! The only downside is that since the can is metal it drastically reduced the distance of the Bluetooth Receiver.
