I decided to build a 3DLabPrint Joker over the winter months. I will break up the build log as it is rather lengthy. It should stay in place by itself.Ħ. Solder 2 female gold bullet connectors to one end of the speaker cable.I just read an older post from Wayne and liked his comments with respect to Hotliners so I figured I would give it an appropriate title. (It’s tricky to print these so they fit perfectly.)ģ. Tap 3.5mm threads for the 4 speaker mounting holes, so the plastic won’t separate when you screw in the speakers.Ĥ. Put MDM-5 foam around the speaker hole.ĥ. Put the 10mm foam behind the bass port. This is a unique speaker cabinet you’ll to want to show off.Ģ. Drill out 5mm holes for the gold connectors in the back of the egg, for the speaker wire connection. It’s an easy build only basic soldering skills are required.ġ. Take a minute to clean up your 3D prints so they look their best. You can make your own pair for about $100. It’s been a long process in getting the ratios “right” but I’m so amazed at the sound coming from such small speakers. Material and wall thickness have the biggest effect on holding in the sound pressure, so you get more sound pressure in the listening room. This helps a lot - instead of just having solid plastic, the air gap dampens the pressure from inside, so the outer wall has less resonance. I learned a lot about using infill settings to create an air gap between the inner and outer walls. The “egg” has always been one of the holy grails of cabinets in the hi-fi world, but they’re hard to make in a conventional way. The result: A pair of good-looking speakers that truly sound great, with no sharp corners to impede airflow inside the cabinet. After looking at some 3D-printed parts my friend had made, and seeing how strong they could be, I was inspired to try.
