Circuit bending a durabrand home theatre speaker wotsit part 2

[Vintagesoundz14]

when you had this screwed to the underside of the computer bench, did you use the rear speaker connections and centre or did you just have 2 front speakers and the subwoofer going, shame to wire something up like this and only use 3 speakers out of a possible 6...

The bit with the neighbour was funny.

nice 1967 sharp, Im still hunting for speakers too, ran across one in an old intercom/radio unit, took the tubes and speaker, my whizzercone isnt oval like that one, mine is round, but its the same speaker.

[form109]

Wow man Nice....i like those Speaker Drivers too!...especially the Oval Ones!...and one almost looks like two Speakers in One?

[CoolDudeClem]

Thanks. Some speakers have a small cone attatched to the main cone to improove the high freuency responce.

i have thatr sony too!its not sounding so ggood,but its soo funny.

it came with a 3" sub

i think you need some better insulation on the 220 volts contacts of that relay. it is very dangerous the way you do this! at least add some electrical tape, heatshrink is even better, and best is insulation the thing and building it in a small plastic box.

[CoolDudeClem]

I did put tape around the contacts on the relay, its just not shown in the video. Good point though. BTW the voltage here is 240, not 220.

[djFadeOut122]

ok, good.

anyway, i live in the netherlands, and we also have a 240V net here, but my multimeter tells me its 224 volts.

[SuperSmasher97]

the very old ones sounded thew best to me

[SuperSmasher97]

nice vintage alnico speakers!and nice rell to reel!and nice project!whats the name of the first song u played?i thing the realy old one is an isophon...

[CoolDudeClem]

Thanks, I'm not sure if the song has a name, it's in one of my games "The incredible machine even more contraptions" and the song was the "vegas" music.

[SuperSmasher97]

my computer has 2gbs of ram 2.4 ghz processor ,and 64mb integrated grafix card, is that good enoug to wach videos in hd? when i wach hd videos it tends to lagg

[CoolDudeClem]

it should be enough, you could try adding "&fmt=18" at the end of the videos url to watch it in high quality if HD is too laggy.

[CoolDudeClem]

my graphics card is shite i know that.

[spatsbear2]

That was really neat :)

[marcelomar2]

why do you use these fans? the stock fans should be fine if you dont overclock your system.

[CoolDudeClem]

I guess I'm just a little overprotective about my computer, besides I do have my graphics card slightly overclocked.

[DrCassette]

That sounds and looks really good!!! Amazing how much better those cheap devices can get when you circuit bend them!

[BadEditPro]

Neat! Are you taking engineering at school? The BBC used to have a very good apprenticeship program.... You ought to look into that. :) JC

[CoolDudeClem]

Most of my electronic and mechanical knowledge is things I taught myself, mostly form books, taking things apart and experimenting. I did take an electronics course at a nearby college, but i was mostly stuff I already knew.

what theme do you have pn your computer?

[CoolDudeClem]

I took the picture myself, and re-arranged the icons. So it's pretty much a custom theme.
