8-20 Hours

Project Cost:

$100-$500

Project Description:

I used the parts from the mkboom speaker kit (excluding the enclosure) to make a custom 3d printed enclosure tuned to about 45hz. It took a couple hours of designing to get the box right but I like how it turned out. Total printing time took about 4 days non stop and about 24 hours to fully paint and finish.

Design Goals:

I wanted to expand on the already great mkboom kit with my own touch and make it look and sound even better. I also wanted to expand my skills when it comes to 3d printing.

Driver Selection:

Dayton Audio TCP115-4 4″ Treated Paper Midbass Woofer. Dayton Audio TD20F-4 3/4″ Soft Dome Neodymium Tweeter.

Enclosure Design:

Ported Box

Crossover Design:

MKBoom kit

Tips & Tricks:

N/A

Conclusion:

Perfect medium speaker that’s not too heavy for daily use and great for small gatherings.
