Thank you for all the responses, both the nice ones and the bad. This isn't the first speaker I've ever built. It is actually my 6th high end DIY speaker. For those interested, here's another example of a speaker I built long ago: www.hifimusic.co.il/%D7%A4%D7%A8%D7%95%D7%99%D7%A7%D7%98-DIY-%D7%9E%D7%A4%D7%AA%D7%99%D7%A2-i3.html Besides that, I can tell you that before I built this speaker in this version I made it from wood - inspired by the b&w design. It's a shame I can't add a picture here, but I'll try to make another video for you, where I'll show you the older version. Besides, I will upload another video of a DIY speaker that I built, using Focal 11' woofers, Mid-woofers - 7' Eton, Morel Supreme and and Aura Bass - 15' used by many different high end companies.

@@Bulldog_DK Nope. In almost every way, plywood and chipboard (they now used exclusively plywood rather than chipboard, whether stacked or formed like b&w does, is a better sounding material than aluminum. Especially when bituminous damped like a b&w. I have things I don't like about modern b&w, but I can promise you the Matrix cabinet (I have an early iteration) is the business. Mine is just a big box, no sexy curves, and the lack of box coloration is astounding. As a result, you can really place the speaker perfectly and get outstanding sound, or you can just kind of plop them anywhere and get merely good sound.

@@j3andme998 When B&W uses aluminum for the far more important midrange then it's fine? This guy did the exact opposite and in the right places. In addition, the goal is to deaden low resonant frequencies, and this kind of armored aluminum wall is a far superior solution.

Well , is quite sound engineering, to get a nice response from some acoustic drivers the enclosure shouldn't be resonate at all , i know anyone will say use mdf ...la la la , but if the enclosure would start resonate that will transform the box in ... a guess? Kind of passive radiator , having extra frequencies, some cases might be ok , but most of them probably will sound annoying . Some materials with a high density will have no vibration or very tiny at low frequency. Thumbs up , i like the design , i really appreciate the effort , not mentioning the cost of those speakers .

Wow, as a CNC machinist I am impressed. Nice CAM work on those parts. That was probably 5-10 thousand dollars in aluminum all together eh? It would almost hurt my heart to throw 75% of the mass away as chips hahahha. Do you have access to casting facilities? Cast iron with lots of silica and inclusions would make for a good speaker cabinet too. Much greater young's modulus than aluminum, resulting in less flexure, and a high vibrational damping coefficient.

@DjRjSolarStar

@@Canadian_Eh_I Well, aluminum has a much higher tensile strength to weight ratio, however, tensile strength is not what matters here...its the elastic modulus, 'rigidity'. Cast iron has around the same weight to elastic modulus ratio as aluminum. This would make an equivalent cast iron cabinet weigh the same. However it has a number of advantages, particularly the high damping coefficient and the ability to cast into complex shapes using sand casting or investment casting. This can allow for a highly engineered structure without the need to remove so much material from the billet. The corrosion resistance of CI also isn't too bad and can last nearly forever with a good enamel paint job. Compared to wood, a well engineered cast iron cabinet will resonate less and create less coloration of the sound. The sheer weight that can be readily attained also serves to prevent an equal but opposite motion of the cabinet relative to large woofers during their excursion, which will assist the drivers in controlling their diaphragms.
