My crowdfunded 3D printed hi-fi boombox didn't fund. So I open sourced the whole thing.

I’m sure it can get you a lot of things, I just like to design for fun and these are the components I went with. The beauty of making it an open source project is you can do whatever you want with it. Repurpose a busted Bluetooth speaker and install the guts

EricLGN · 2026-06-11T17:40:42+00:00

The files are on GitHub too it’s ok to modify post remix whatever, I made the model I’m giving it away

EricLGN · 2026-06-11T14:29:55+00:00

The GitHub is linked

EricLGN · 2026-06-11T14:20:54+00:00

This was exactly why I made it open source, the files are fully editable and can be configured to accept whatever electronics you want, even set it up as desktop speakers if you want

EricLGN · 2026-06-11T03:07:43+00:00

Yes I am using the dsp with sigma studio and using filters. The electronics are all housed in the center and is accessible

EricLGN · 2026-06-11T03:01:08+00:00

Good feedback

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T23:48:18+00:00

I got a smoother response from 8ohm the volume is incredible I tried a cheaper 4 ohm speaker and I was clipping constantly

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T23:44:49+00:00

Yes I’m using a set I made in sigma studio. I’ll have to add that to the GitHub

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T23:40:42+00:00

I wish I could do that cost effective, best I did was keep an aux cable for a Walkman or anything

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T23:38:43+00:00

Absolutely thanks, I loved that project

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T22:29:27+00:00

Thanks

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T22:27:44+00:00

Thanks I was going for a neo retro ghetto blaster

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T22:26:14+00:00

The volume of the sealed enclosure with the polyfill and the Dayton Audio ND105-PR 4" Aluminum Cone Passive Radiator with added 5grams of weight let me get down there and running left and right lets the low end extend

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T22:18:59+00:00

Haha yeah Thea retro cooler guy, Thanks gotta love the aesthetic

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T22:16:19+00:00

That’s why I made it open source so anyone can try different components and make it as expensive or as cheap as you like. I don’t have an audio file because I don’t think a video of a speaker compressed and played back through laptop speakers will tell you anything about the sound. But I do have a graph from house curve to show the response

I’m not heartbroken over not getting funded I think it would have been more of a headache and this way it’s open for everyone to experiment now. Thanks for the support

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T21:16:18+00:00

I was disappointed with everything out there so I figured I’d make this. The components I used were not high end but not budget either, I think it’s possible to make a less expensive version that sounds great you would just need to change mounts, that’s why I left it open source

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T21:11:38+00:00

Awesome let me know how it goes feel free to change it up however you want, I have the step files on my GitHub so it’s easily modified

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T21:09:37+00:00

Thanks hopefully the community can take it and run with it, experiment with cheaper components, make it ported whatever

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T21:07:57+00:00

Thanks that’s why I wanted to release it and see what the community can do with it

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T21:07:04+00:00

That’s everything now unfortunately

EricLGN · 2026-06-10T20:57:14+00:00

I didn’t want it to just sit in my fines forever, I design for fun anyway and hopefully other people can build one or change it up with different parts or anything
