Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum and i will start by apologizing for my bad English. Clap

I want to build a speaker ball. (hanging from the sealing like a lamp.
I've done some sketching and was wondering if you guys can give me some tips and tricks about this idea.

Price range around 300 US dollars. except the shell.
I want the sound to give rich base and clear mids and highs.


Material: Wood
Diameter: 50cm
Active speaker
Source: bluetooth
2 or 3 way?
Seald woofer or not?
Drivers?
ideas of improving acustics and still be a ball?
Powersuply?

Hope you guys can help! Smile

Buy a ceiling speaker and then build the enclosure around that with the bluetooth receiver & amp built in just be aware of cooling on the amp module. Something like a QSC AD-C6T would be a good starting point.

If it sounds like a gorilla is trying to escape, turn it down.

You should forget about getting strong bass from such box.
