[@marcuskrushansky6557]

I had to come in and comment just to help out. Love you man, keep it up. Most definitely my favorite audio channel. I'd like to see you build something with a big subwoofer too, just as a channel suggestion. 👍

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Marcus!! Thanks for watching! I’m glad you are enjoying my friend! I need a sub! Coming soon.

[@adamdjd7882]

This is your best video yet, mate. I learnt more on this one video than I have 20 others. The speakers look amazing

[@sonnoradesign]

That’s good to hear Adam!! Thanks for your input mate!! I’m glad it’s helping out.

[@TomZelickman]

Loved this build and definitely learned a lot. Thanks for showing how to approached dealing with mistakes in the process as well!

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Tom!! Thanks again man. $h*t happens haha

[@davidzoller9617]

Amazing all around. Love the clamp removal face. Looking forward to the measuring and crossover development.

[@sonnoradesign]

Haha. It’s real man! So much exercise! Thanks David!!

[@ashleysolomon246]

You are so talented!! I love watching your woodworking process. More like this please!

[@sonnoradesign]

Thanks Ashley!! Appreciate your input!! I’ll keep them coming!

[@iam2scottw]

Love this video and your process. Your woodworking skills are amazing! Love watching you fix problems and please keep up the great videos.

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Scott! Thanks for watching! Right! It’s not always smith and perfect. Haha. Getta report the truth!! Ha

[@robertmear]

One of my favorite channels!

[@sonnoradesign]

Thanks Robert! Appreciate your input man!!

I am an interior designer, engineer and trained as an electronics technician. I like your videos and the way you build your speakers. They are characterized by a perfect style and good design. The skills you use to make them are really great. I also like the components. These days I have finished a small box with a Markaudio CHR-70 in it. This chassis sounds great when played alone. The only thing I don't like about your 3-way speakers are the black metal stands. Somehow these don't quite fit with the otherwise beautiful design. Greetings from Germany from Michael.

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Michael! I really appreciate your input. I do agree that they look a little “different”. We can work on that further. Or just remove it!! Thanks man!

[@incredifunk]

😅 I don't know, I kind of like the look of the stands on the speakers. Plus that brings them off of the floor or shelf wherever you're putting them.. What a fantastic looking set of speakers. Great build, great job. Now I want to hear them

[@BostonMike68]

Of course I'm the first to make a comment as soon as I see you post I have to watch! Good come back on your boo boo I'm glad you showed it because we all make mistakes it's how we rebound. Nice Speakers!!!

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Mike!! Man, good to “see” you here again! First one. Thanks for the input. And it’s right, not always so easy as it looks. There is a lot happening on the background. Haha

[@BostonMike68]

@sonnoradesign that's a really nice trick and I know trust me we are only human but it's how you rebound and you did I really good job fixing that and if you didn't tell us we would never know but I respect that you told us it shows people that might be afraid to try even someone with your experience can make a mistake

[@sonnoradesign]

Right!! Sh*t happens man! Haha

[@BostonMike68]

@@sonnoradesign yes it does and I did the same thing before but it's about how you recover

[@sonnoradesign]

Right!!!

[@travishall9398]

Those turned out nice! Great repair on the corner!! WOW

[@sonnoradesign]

Thanks Travis!!

[@JoshuaEXE18]

that is one sexy speaker...I am inspired to build this sucker. Keep up the GREAT work

[@gerardpastorelli4389]

Always on top, fun and high level skills, you rock man !

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Gerard!! Good to “see” you man!! Thanks for the input!

[@diyfullrangehifispeakers]

Great work. I plan to try a full range and woofer combination as well with perhaps a TQWTL to maximise the bass from the small woofer. You've given me some inspiration to move forward with that. Thanks.

[@sonnoradesign]

That’s great!!! Let me know how it goes!

[@tedshred8436]

I really like your builds. Very nice.

[@sonnoradesign]

Thanks again my friend!!

[@RanTausi]

Hello again, I love your channel and the content off course ❤

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Ran! Thanks for watching my friend!!

[@mauserkk98]

Very enjoyable, the stands look familiar.

[@sonnoradesign]

Really? Thanks for watching Mauser!

[@caide]

That is super beautiful speaker!

[@sonnoradesign]

Thanks Caide!!

[@sabbathAndy]

Love your channel bro!

[@sonnoradesign]

Thanks Andy! Appreciate it man!!

[@Douglas_Blake_579]

Okay... now I'm waiting for part 3....

[@sonnoradesign]

Haha! Hey Blake! It’s coming.

[@markmacleod6971]

They look great. Very much like the Boenicke W5's . Probably sound just as good or better . I don't think the built in stands were necessary , but all in all a fantastic design.

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Mark!! That’s right, not really necessary. It does sound really good. Thanks for the input my friend.

[@RWmHII]

Handsome build. Thanks for taking time to show techniques. So, just glue on the veneer and trim with a router? Those look like monster clamps.

[@sonnoradesign]

Haha! Good clamps. There are other kind of gluing processes but this one has been working for me!!!

[@earlfenwick]

Dude I would totally love to hang out! Today is gonna be the best day ever! 😊

Bey there Earl!! Are you in LA? Best day ever! Always!

Germany unfortunately. lol. Next time I'm out there, I'm there! . @@sonnoradesign

[@davebutler3905]

Superb skills! Have you considered building a Voigt pipe or a BIB version. Would be interesting to see what you think of those designs.

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Dave! Yes, I’ve thought about a folded horn, voigt pipe… those are cool designs. I’m working on a mass loaded transmission line now.

[@davebutler3905]

@@sonnoradesign Look forward to seeing how you get on with the TLs. They had a bit of a cult following many years ago. Some friends had TDL versions that sounded impressive!

[@jobbagyferi]

Nice build. I would add a highpass filter to the wide range. It would clear up the midrange

[@sonnoradesign]

Thanks for watching! Yup, not a bad idea. Good insight.

[@kurtmeer]

Thank you for posting!!!!

[@sonnoradesign]

Thanks Kurt!! Appreciate it

[@mikerhodes9198]

I could never do what you do with the design and cabinetry. Don't fuss on boo boos. But maybe I missed something. I have never seen twwter positioning in the back like that. In blows my mind. I understand the woofers. Can you explain the tweeters? I must have missed it in pt 1. Is this your genios design? And how does it sound? Does it all come together with a good integrated sound stage? I can't believe you don't have at least 30 thousand subscribers yet. You are a hidden gem.

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Mike. Thanks for the input man! Im working on the channel, let’s grow it!! The front driver (fullrange) plays the full spectrum from around 200Hz to 20KHz. The tweeter on the back help with the soundstage. Makes it deeper and add highs to the response. It plays in reverses phase to match the front driver. Some speakers in the market use that already with good results.

[@sonnoradesign]

Sounds Good!!

[@earlfenwick]

Hey Bernardo! Best day ever! Quick questtion. Sound-wise, I wanna rock out in a pretty big room, like 5x8 meters-and watch some videos too. I really like a wide soundstage and great imaging more than high volume. Are you liking recent transmission line build or more the Dayton Audio reference? CHR towers?I Prefer something a bit smaller, but you might convince me otherwise. Thanks man, keep it up!

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Earl. Man, those speakers are different but they all sound good at the same time. CHRs are very powerful, soundstage I’d say the TL is great, Dayton is very detailed but lack of SPL…

[@navinadv]

Fantastic work. I’d love to you extrapolate this design with a “push-push” woofer system like Audio Physic Tempo and KEF Blade

[@sonnoradesign]

That’s interesting my friend!! Let’s keep it in mind!!

[@navinadv]

@@sonnoradesign in my spare time I am working on something similar. A small tower using 1 MAOP 7, 4 SEAS H1480 16cm woofers (push-push), 1 rear firing Fountek Neo 1.0 tweeter. If this works, my next project might be a larger version using 4 SB Acoustics Satori MW19 woofers with 1 SB acoustics Satori MR16 midrange (300-8kHz) and 1 Mundorf AMT17D2 or Satori AT60 operating in open baffle (8-20kHz).

[@sonnoradesign]

That’s a cool design! Let me know how it goes man!!

[@attainableaudio4533]

Looks nice! The only thing I WOOD do is actually glue a layer of mdf to the real wood as to help stop the wood from expansion/contraction and maybe causing a crack.

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey there!! That sounds like a good new trick! Thanks for the input!!

[@denisdube8893]

Hey dude , what you do for living ?

[@sonnoradesign]

I was on set design for the past 2 years but I’m back to furniture now. Sorry I’ve been super busy but more videos coming soon! Hopefully

[@JoseDuarte-y8r]

Olá Bernado. Tenho visto os seus videos e estou seriamente tentado a construir umas colunas eu próprio. Ainda não sei quais. Mas como não tenho nenhuma prática a trabalhar com madeira ou mdf. Queria começar por um kit simples. Cumprimentos

[@sonnoradesign]

Ola tudo bem? Você está no Brasil? Aqui existem uns kits na parts express se você estiver no USA.

[@JoseDuarte-y8r]

@@sonnoradesign Bom dia. Estou em Portugal, Grandola-Alentejo. Esses Kits também devem ser enviados para Portugal. E talvez seja a melhor opção, visto a minha fraca experiência a trabalhar com madeira e também não ter as ferramentas adequadas.

[@sonnoradesign]

Aí na Europa você pode contactar Soundimports. Eles fazem distribuição em toda a Europa!

[@JoseDuarte-y8r]

@@sonnoradesign Obrigado. Tenho uma dúvida sobre a saída do basse reflex. Devido à disposição e dimensão da sala, vou ter que colocar as colunas junto à parede e a minha dúvida é se haverá algum problema em mudar a saída do basse reflex de trás para a frente ou mesmo para o lado, em qualquer kit de colunas ? Obrigado

[@rushnetwork782]

I thought solid wood has an inherent resonance and not the best for speaker enclosure.?

[@sonnoradesign]

It might not have the best damping but people use hardwood (Boenicke, Sibelius) as well as plywood and mdf. I usually add the sonic barrier which helps. I got resonances (vibration) from plywood and mdf already, bad ones but never from hardwood. Physics? There are videos comparing different kinds of wood. Check it out. John Heizs channel.

I’ll try and make a demo with the mic sometime.

Is this Jean Claude Van Damme?

[@sonnoradesign]

Almost!

[@carlose.martinez545]

Why don't you simply use T-nuts on the inside of the cabinet to screw the woofer to the MDF instead of a the wood rings? kzbin.info/www/bejne/jneYcot-ZrJsqrc I remember they were always recommended on Speaker Builder magazine. They cost less than $1 each, probably less in Home Depot, and are a very solid grip for the drivers.

[@sonnoradesign]

Hey Carlos! That’s great input my friend! I always tend to solve it all with wood! Hehe
