    Sealed drivers wanted - small enclosure

    Hi I am looking to do a 2 way speaker with a smaller than average enclosure size.

    Budget is likely to be under $400 including electronics. excluding wood as I want to make it with a lathe. similar shape to a vase. imagine the speaker at the top and having thicker walls to support driver and screws.
    I currently do not know what to look for or how to calculate the volume needed for specific drivers.

    Do I do a full range and tweeter? or woofer and tweeter?

    Im still researching at the moment so my knowledge is limited for the time being.

    any help would be great !!!

    The advise hasn't changed from your first thread
    Hi I am planning on making a 3way speaker set using wood turned enclosures. I came across this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDmodPCunww and it inspired me to do a 3 way, starting with a mid driver, then extending and purchasing a tweeter, then when the budget allows finishing it off with a woofer and crossover


    Might be a good idea for you to get the book in the link below so you have some knowledge as to what's involved in the design of a speaker
