  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

By far the most attractive box I have worked with so far. I sold this unit to some family friends, it was a graduation gift for their daughter. I understand it gets quite a bit of use which makes me very happy.

This was the back of the box but now it is the front of the system. I painted it because someone had written on it with a black sharpie. This unit has nice pencil tweeters installed in the lower corners.

The first system I made. The front of the box was a little dinged up but the artwork was too good to waste so I installed the speakers in the back of the box.

This is a simulated picture of what the system looked like, I forgot to take pictures of the finished system. I will post actual pictures when I have them. I used two boxes because each driver needed more volume then one half of a single box.

It has 2" Vifa drivers and a 15 watts per channel amplifier. It has no problems filling a large living room with clean music.

Had to take the front labels of these boxes to make room for the drivers. These speakers have a very full range of sound, the bass response is very nice.

An experiment using some unique square drivers and a 20 watts per channel amplifier. The amplifier module has an input module that accepts SD cards and USB thumb drives as well as the standard 1/8" audio patch cable.

I know these are not a matched set, but they do look and perform well together.

This model has the drivers hidden under the lid. If you look close you can see that I built squared ports into the face of the box.

I decided to go with a sort of Art Deco look on this box. I could have left the speaker covers unstained but I wanted a little contrast. This unit has 20 watts per channel, 3" inch woofers and 1.5" tweeters.

Waiting for the trip home. I sold this box to a local attorney for his lake house. His wife really liked the look of the box.

I sure wish I could get more of these size boxes. I think this may be the best looking one I have built.

With the lid open you can see the drivers and the vinyl covered face. The lid stay was hand made from 1/8" aluminum.

The audio patch cable has a right angle connector on one end. You can leave it plugged in and still close the lid.

Notice the two ports, I put a divider in every boombox box so that each driver is in its own volume.
