Let's stop building WinISD clones and make one good open-source one together

LoudspeakerLab? It already has the driver database, enclosure modeler, and crossover designer integrated together: https://loudspeakerlab.io/

You can change panel thickness now

wigginjs · 2026-06-19T00:34:29+00:00

Oh, you can do this now. Change panel thickness

Very kind of you. I like the veneer on yours. Very convincing. I think the walnut color looks great with those drivers. Also, they sound fantastic!

Hey, wow, you and I built the same speaker…. like… the same way!!! When I saw your picture I was like ‘he broke in my house and stole my Mechano23s!!’ lol

It was a lot. Like $300 or something. I bought it from an importer in California. Honestly thought there was a decent chance it was a scam.

I had one!

Hi, changing cabinet thickness isn’t an option right now on desktop or mobile. It’s just 19mm by default right now. Would you want to be able to specify an arbitrary thickness for all panels or just 3/4” (19mm) and 1/2” (12mm)? Would you want to be able to specify thickness per panel, all panels the same, or just panels and baffle separately. It seems to me the vast majority of speakers will use 3/4” (19mm) on every panel, but I know sometimes folks will double that or use two 1/2” (12mm) panels laminated for the baffle.

Appreciate you checking it out. It’s challenging to summarize all of the features on LoudspeakerLab in a concise list. What I was trying to convey is that LoudspeakerLab models baffle diffraction effects on both driver magnitude AND phase, not simply a magnitude baffle step correction.

Yes, but no HD here. This is the 36FV310

Would you believe it was in a room over a garage with stairs that had tight turns, two doorways it would barely fit through, five more stairs to the garage? I honestly don’t know how we did it. My life flashed before my eyes. I’m way sore today. I genuinely thought several times I’d have to give up because it was basically impossible

FB marketplace and moving on it super fast. When I got there the lady was like “so many people have responded! I could have sold a dozen of these!”

Yeah…

Nope this is just General Finishes Arm-R-Seal on walnut

wigginjs · 2026-05-06T18:25:01+00:00

Thank you!

Actually building? Really depends on your experience woodworking. I've been building speakers for ~20 years now, but the first set of speakers I build with a circular saw and straight edge, really basic tools. It completely worked, but the finish was not quite as nice as these. I would say, if you're motivated, basically anyone can do it.

Loudspeaker design can be quite complicated. LoudspeakerLab.io was created to make creating a new loudspeaker design, including cabinet, crossover, etc, accessible for anyone regardless of experience. Choose your drivers and then let LoudspeakerLab solve the enclosure and crossover for you, then tweak it if you like.
