Description

Description

This sound bar was designed around 2.5 inch full range drivers and 3/4 inch tweeters. The left and right enclosures are sealed. This sound bar is intended to be used with the 6.5 inch subwoofer build with 2.1 amplifier module. You can also connect this sound bar to an AVR or to a subwoofer with 2.1 amplifier output.

The goal was to design and build an elegant looking system that can fit into most home environments. When following this build plan, it can easily be built with everyday woodworking tools by someone with beginner woodworking skills. The construction follows butt joints. Finishing is up to you and you can follow my build exactly or opt for an enclosure that can be painted in the colour of your choice. I made this design for my 55inch TV, but if you want to adjust the length, you can just recalculate some of the dimensions to suit your TV.

This subwoofer was designed around a down-firing Tang Band 6.5 inch subwoofer driver. It is a ported bass reflex enclosure with the port firing forward. The goal was to have a relatively small and elegant looking subwoofer that can fit into most home environments.

The subwoofer design includes a plate amplifier that can be set to 2.1 or 0.1 output. This provides you with the ability to then use this subwoofer with any system or other amplified speakers or just set it to 2.1 and connect a pair of stereo speakers. The output of the specified plate amplifier is 30W+30W stereo, and 60W for the subwoofer channel.

When following this build plan, it can easily be built with everyday woodworking tools, and even by someone with beginner woodworking skills. The construction follows butt joints. Finishing is up to you and you can follow my build exactly or opt for an enclosure that can be painted in the colour of your choice.
