So, first off this is my first build and I expect to build a few sets of speakers this year. I am also an amateur woodworker but plan on being more active as I finish building out my wood shop and have some more free time.
I started out with the intentions of building a single sealed driver sub using the Zaph design but decided I could get away with something bigger in the place that I was allowed to use. It will be located behind the couch and nestled under a table. I know location makes a big difference but this is what I have to work with. Using Unibox, I calculated out what the inside dimensions needed to be for 2 drivers to have a similar but better response as the single driver design. The amp will be external and I am considering using a 500watt mono block ice power amplifier. I hope it will be enough.
Now to the sawdust. Decent progress and some minor adjustments to how I want to finish it with recessed binding posts on the bottom, 1.5" radius corners, walnut veneer and grills to protect from the kids. Attached pictures show the progress so far. I am pretty close to the veneer stage but will need to join a few sheets together to get a full wrap.
Main box without baffles.
Baffles dry fitted.
Chamfering the back side and adding the nuts.
Glue up.
