Custom-made using Fostex M800
58.74 $
Description
This is a custom-made speaker using Fostex's 8cm metal cone full-range speaker unit, the M800.
A passive radiator is attached to the rear.
The M800 was purchased new and has been stored ever since.
It has only been played for about 1 hour, so it is not yet fully broken in.
External dimensions: (approx.) Height 200mm, Width 98mm, Depth 166mm.
Finished with black walnut veneer on 9mm thick MDF.
The interior is reinforced with wood scraps.
To prevent screw holes from becoming damaged when removing/installing the unit,
threaded inserts (also known as Helicoil inserts) are used (the rear passive radiator is attached with wood screws).
This was made as a practice project before starting work on a larger speaker, which I haven't built in a long time.
As it's been quite some time since my last build, there are some areas where the craftsmanship is a bit rough, and the veneer shows some scratches and unevenness from the underlying material.
While subjective, I believe the overall appearance has a decent texture at first glance.
The sound is rather light, considering the use of a passive radiator, but since it's barely broken in, it's hard to say how it will develop.
Recommended for those who dislike the boomy sound of bass reflex speakers.
Please understand that this is a custom-made item and accept it as-is (No Claims, No Returns).
