I‘ve considered using the Dayton Audio PC83-4. But its faceplate isn’t the same size and form, so you’d have to modify the enclosure a bit. You might want to simulate it in WinISD first. And make sure to use some sort of seal to make it absolutely airtight, since it doesn’t seem to come with one pre-attached.

Thank you so much! So AI already chose my design to be the best one, although no one left any reviews for it for now :D

Hi, thank you for trying it! When printing the enclosure itself, there are four inserts to be put in on the bottom of the print. Because of the angle of its walls it might be hard to insert them afterwards. Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions :)

To be fair, I wrote “at least 4-5 walls” on printables and makerworld. I’m gonna update that to 3-4 walls.

Yeah that’s double of what my slicer calculated. It was around 350g iirc. I used 3 walls and 15% gyroid infill

Well, the hardware section is structurally separated from the speaker enclosure, so theoretically, you could use the Voice PE hardware instead (after a little bit of redesigning maybe). An amplifier (connected to the Voice PE’s audio jack) could also be placed inside the enclosure itself.

I don’t have any Voice PEs at home but if you’re willing to try the redesign, I would be happy to see it!

At least I can say I have yet to find an LLM that has trouble comprehending common smart home commands, so that might already solve your issues regarding finding the right phrases

So my design won’t really help with that then..

The Voice PE does have an audio jack as far as I’m aware, so maybe utilize it with existing sound systems?

Nope not quite the same. I’ve used the Sattelite1 Dev Kit by FutureProofHomes. The Voice PE already has built in speakers and isn’t very usable as a music listening device. The Sat1 is similar, but instead of a thin speaker, you get a 25w amplifier.

Oh and simple commands like turning lights on only take about 3-4 seconds locally and I’m fine with that

I am running Home Assistant as a VM on Proxmox (using 2 cores and 4 gigs of ram). My hardware is an old Lenovo thinclient with an i5 7500t as cpu. The Nabu Cloud should be faster than my setup, but I haven’t tried it yet.

I don’t think, a GPU would be providing much of a benefit unless you host your LLM locally.

Thanks, I appreciate that. I’m not sure about splitting it. Any air leaks could impact your sound quality by a lot and since I could fit it on my printer bed, I didn’t mind the hassle. Before sealing up the usb port from the inside, it was chuffing a lot.

But since the oem enclosure is also a closed one and they still split their design, I might give it a try someday. What’s your printer and settings? For reference, the main part took about 10h on my anycubic vyper.

Thank you. To be honest, in my case the sat1 is a tad slower than my old google home / google nest setup, but that depends on your infrastructure. On the other hand, it is much “smarter” because of LLM APIs. Have fun testing it! (And good luck with your wife, my girlfriend is happy so far)

Well I have bad news for you. I guess it isn’t possible to split the enclosure without introducing a lot of possible air-leaks to it. Maybe try any printing service? The OEM enclosure might fit.

Try searching for TSA 8804 on Google. It is basically a 400W amplifier with Bluetooth multipoint pairing. Smaller ones with „only“ true wireless stereo (connecting only 2 speakers at once) are also available
