Three Dimensions
As soon as I had a front and back pair, I added a top and bottom and made it look like a speaker, sort of.

Wires & Deadening
Time to put some key parts into the box, decent wire and decent sound deadening to absorb backward traveling waves.

Trouble
One of the nuts came loose, worst possible place. There was some swearing... OK, more than some...
In Use
Couldn't put it together, so had to stack some weight on it to seal it up, and use it anyway! Muffling the other channel so it didn't spoil the romantic moment. <3

Insulation And Sides
Adding a second layer of insulation and one of the sides to the first box! In use with weight on top for the second side, again.

Stuffing And Side
Putting the final side on and stuffing it full of white fluffy stuff. Likely near useless, but makes you feel good :-p Placebo affect, right? The first layer, the grey thick stuff, is excellent, though.

Wiring And Sawdust
Soldering the speakers onto the barely-long-enough-on-purpose wires! And the pile of dust ONLY from drilling holes! Several hundred screws all up! ;-) You could park a truck on these...

Re: Cheapish HiFi Bookshelf Speakers Limited Tools NO Aesthe
Before these speakers, I always scoffed when someone said they only needed some meagre amount of power with their speakers. I've been running these from just 2W RMS per side since I finished them, and although I do want more, I don't really need it. It can already get loud enough to get the wife covering her ears. You can feel the bass in other rooms. They're just that efficient. Awesome.

Re: Cheapish HiFi Bookshelf Speakers Limited Tools NO Aesthe
Weight of MDF in these two is approx:
((1.480 + 1.352) * 0.3 * 0.019) * 800 kg/m^3 ~= 13kg
Pine looks to be about 500kg/m^3, and I had about 2.4 * 2 * 0.02 * 0.02 in it. So about 1kg
We'll call the stuffing and wires and terminals 1kg all up, too.
The drivers are supposed to be:
Woofers: 1.9kg each
Tweeters: 0.5kg each
Then there was the screws @ approx 0.7kg
So, grand total:
13 + 1 + 1 + 1.9 + 1.9 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.7 = 20.5kg or there abouts.
I guess if I Pull the woofers out and pull the cheap stuffing out and fill them full of clothes or something, I can put up to about 8kg more in a bag with them.
Why am I figuring this out? Need to figure out if I can take them on a plane with me, or ship them via sea, or have to throw the carefully constructed boxes away for lack of funds. :-(
