Hello, Habrazhiteli.
I think if you search well in the habitat of any of us, then there is something that, in principle, is not necessary, but it is a pity to throw it out. Well, for example, computer parts in the box. So I had a very long time collecting brand new car speakers , which I did not need at all.

But I really wanted to update my home computer acoustics.

The most common two-way speakers, no frills and frills. Strict design and label ... SONY.

Specifications

XS-602E

So let's go! It all begins, of course, with the appearance. More precisely, with the idea of ​​how it all should look. Long sketched, presenting various options. I wanted to combine a unique design, versatility and convenience. At the same time I looked at the rack for the CD in one furniture store . But more about that later.

1. BODY

Corps decided to look for a round shape. Such that the column “ideally sat down” in it. Well, for example, such))

A month or even two searches were crowned with success. Found!!! Who guesses the first attempt, as shown below?

Salad bowl! That was written on the price tag. In our business, all means are good, wrap two. Further Salad bowl will be called Corps.

Appearance of the body was good. Solid wood, quite thick and strong. And, as it turned out later, voiced .

All these actions took place a long time ago, and then I assembled the speakers without the use of sound-absorbing materials and insulation. The result was a mediocre sound with echo and distortion. I decided to remake just now.

Columns need to "breathe." He made a round hole in the back of the case with a drill and a crown on the tree. The place is cut later covered with matte varnish.

The inner part of the column decided to glue the soundproof material. Plain fabric was enough. In the department of costume fabrics I chose a dense two-layer fabric: 90% viscose, 10% polyester. It was interesting to walk around sewing shops, I learned a lot of new things))

Glue glue titan. Here's what happened: front view

and behind.

It was already a “matter of technique” to assemble, all the fixing bolts sat where they should be. It turned out hard. The wire is pre-routed through the hole made at the back.

The column is ready, it's time to attach to the rack, which I mentioned above.

2. STAND

Why fasten to the rack for disks, you ask? Everything is quite obvious. First, you need some kind of stand so that the speakers are at head level. Secondly, why not combine the stand with a suitable stand for disks?
The mount turned out to be forced but graceful. Two days puzzled how, without prejudice to the appearance of nailed a metal rod to a tree. Due to the spreading of the column tightly pressed against the metal base.

3. RESULTS

Passive speakers, and in order to ominate them, you need an amp. Anyone can use, even the one used in computer acoustics 2.1. It is also desirable to have a subwoofer for bass output.
Below are a few photos in the interior.

4. RESULTS

After modernization with sizing, the sound became much nicer and cleaner. It is noticeable, so to speak, "with the naked ear."
However, I believe that in terms of sound quality, the resulting system can only be called with similar computer acoustics, and the total price of the whole event cannot be called a small language. However, there are two important points for the sake of which everything was started. Unique design (+ storage of your favorite discs) and an incomparable feeling from self-made :)
