Do it Yourself Desktop Cube Speaker

So I had some old teak wood lying in the backyard, thought I could utilize it to make a portable speaker.

The thought was ready to be pinned down and I started planning the planks , got it cut into 6 pieces of 4*4 square inches.

I also had a PAM8610 amplifier lying around, so i managed to buy a 4 inch 30 watt driver and a 1.5 inch driver from the local electronics shop. I wanted to make a decent sounding portable speaker for my laptop.

Materials Required:

6 equal pieces of 4*4 inch teak wood.

1 PAM 8610 Amplifier kit

1 four inch driver

1 1.5 inch driver

Aux Cable

Battery- 12 Volt, 2-2.5AH

DC Jack

On/off switch

Polish

Basic soldering items

ACP sheet Golden coloured

After joining the plank pieces together, I was short of wooden piece that could hold the four inch driver , so i utilised a 8mm mdf sheet to match it with the box and will polish it afterwards. The PAM 8610 was wired to an aux pin and battery, After all the connections, the speaker was ready to rock. The parts were all taken out and the box was sanded with 320 grit after four rounds of sanding and polishing.

After polish was dry, the drivers were fitted and the speaker was ready to be tested.
