Quick and easy summary of what you may encounter if you keep reading:What am I doing here? I am building a speaker set with amplifierWhy am I doing it? There are a few reasons:This is a gift idea I had in mind for my dad, a tricky candidate if you want to gift him something special.DIYcling (Do It Yourself, Recycling), which means the implementation of recycled components/materials within your build. This means to me the fact of providing another life-cycle to 'a thing'. This involves reusing and repurposing.I love speaker design (amongst many other things)! This is yet another project that involves creativity, design skills, machining, electronics, problem solving skills and so on...I want to serve you as motivation for starting or continuing your (personal) projects. I am not expecting you to copy my project, as this is rather boring and nonsense. I would expect that you use my project as inspiration for yours, because in the end you need to add your 'magic', so the project will become special, unique, yours.Don't forget to watch the introductory video!How am I going to do this?I do not want to show you (once again) how to build a pair of speakers. That is already shown in many other platforms. What I would like to show you instead, is how I managed this project from its concept until the finished product was ready to go.Note for the reader: I managed to gather a considerable amount of footage. I am doing my best to edit and upload the videos just in time, but for now just pictures. And yes, they are in Spanish. They are especially made for my father, who prefers Spanish amongst other languages (I do not know why...). I managed to add captions in English for some of them, but there is another alternative if you want to read captions in another language. First, enable 'Subtitles/Closed Captions (c)', then go to 'Settings' -- 'Subtitles/CC' and select 'Auto-translate'. Choose the desired language and enjoy! I realised that this saves me a lot of work and you get a general idea of what I am showing here, since the translation is not 100% accurate. Well, sometimes the assistant just "spits" words and the whole thing does not make any sense. This is probably due to many factors (e.g. voice tone, sound artefacts/quality, pronunciation...)Instructable: https://www.instructables.com/DIY-Speaker-Set-Amplifier-a-Gift-for-Dad/More information about my projects: https://linktr.ee/javitosprojects
