I think the thing that really stands out about your videos is your design eye. Your craft skills are great aswell, but there's a lot of great makers on YT. There are not many makers with as good a design style (both in terms of aesthetics and function) as you. Excellent work.
-
As an audio engineer, I have to say that I totally loved your subwoofer unit design. A very clever piece of engineering! Dude, you should start an audio company where you build custom hand-made speakers for various customers like Hi-Fi enthusiasts, casual desktop listeners, mobile listeners etc. And I would be one of your first Hi-Fi customers! Keep up the amazing work!
-
Admittedly I do think the $1200 speakers have a more detailed mid range... but at 5 times the cost you kill it in bang for the buck and the aesthetics of this build are fantastic. Plus it's always way cooler using something you build yourself!
-
He says "After much research, testing, and experimentation..." and at this point I just have to accept... the stuff he makes always seems well thought through.
-
It's quite spacious in that monitor stand, someone could almost fit a whole PC in the monitor stand 👀
-
Man, I was really expecting you to announce that the extended build guide would be available on Patreon or on some other paid platform. Massive props for making it free to everyone
-
This man actually buys a house and literally creates his own furniture.
-
I love how your speakers sounds brighter and the low end is more tight. Than to the bookshelf speakers which sounds the bass is all over the place and the high end sound you put a slight low pass filter.
-
This is EXACTLY the creativity we need in the DIY audio space. You could sell a ton of these
-
Truly the real significance of DIY and the fact that you can find ideas each month. Your imagination is you limit Unfortunately I don't have that much of imagination. Amazing build.
-
I would definitely buy that if someone would sell it. I was almost onboard with trying to build it myself but the audio fine tuning of the speakers got the better of me.
-
Absolutely LOVE the sound it provides and I'm so Looking forward to the extended video to see how it's measured and built in details.
-
I really appreciate that you generally only use hand tools or cheaper power tools. As someone who doesn't have a shop with thousands of dollars of tools, it's great to see projects I could actually do!
-
MDF is also used in order to get uniform sound wave dissipation through the material. Because wood is not uniform, it might affect the sound characteristics of the speakers.
-
WOW. Your explanation of the ribbon tweeters vs dome tweeter was the best i've heard yet, what a beautiful creation you've made, and it sounds amazing too. Very impressed with the output of that shallow driver. I hope you can post up your crossover settings on the forum. Keep up the great moves Matt!
-
man, gotta say I love your projects. I've been around for over 5 years and I really enjoyed everything you have made yet. The level of detail and professionalism is spot on. Your skill level is amazing. Thank you for your time for showing us your ideas
-
That feeling when you see a new DIY Perks video in your feed.

Really like that attention to detail. And you actually known to seal the speakers and port them etc. Very knowledgeable across the subjects, makes it fun to watch.

Okay THIS has to be one of THE sickest builds I’ve seen thus far on the channel. I want one. I want one so bad.
