Hey! On galaxy buds + there are 2 speakers on each side. Is there any chance it is one for bass and one for treeble? I think I will try to connect amplifiers on separate channels.

Many thanks!

How long do the battery last tho 🤔

Hey, beautiful end result! Seriously one of the coolest DIYs I have ever seen. Do you have any input on how to modify to add a charging port, rather than removing the 18650s?

Wow! Thank you for this. The additional time take to research this was well worth it.

ah yes i hope you made a diy video of it because i can most definitely do so

Right! As well as a degree in electrical engineering and a Masters degree in woodworking

If you're lucky, that's all the shady crap you'd find. At least this dude used a decent amp and had a CNC .. to ... use ... for ... DIY “¯\_(ツ)_/¯“ but I digress ...

The 5.1 system satellites were filled with cement!!! I'm serious - CEMENT ... you can't make this up. What kind of evil lil shit thinks to do that to a mans speakers, even if they are garbage, which most all are today anyway. I feel sorry for the poor guy who probably paid 200 bucks to someone "with the deal of a lifetime" in a parking lot somewhere that got the heavy box to home to hear mickey mouse sound, which is bad enough, but cement?? I mean literally WTF? I'm a peaceful dude, but that is just so wrong on so many levels. I'm checking w/a buddy to see if he'll let me come blow them up on his farm for a UKposts video.

@@onee This is the internet. Some people know this stuff (I'm an engineer)

It would work if he played the voiceover through the speakers and recorder it again :D

Yeah that would've been great. And technically that could still work as all speakers can be mics if the inputs and outputs are reversed but with the wireless feature from Samsung I'm not sure if that would actually work and could damage the system haha

But how do they sound? well, you'll be surprised to learn that i broke into your home last night and replaced your normal speakers with these, so you've been listening to them throughout the video. I think the sound quality is splendid, wouldnt you agree?

Would you mind a noob question? :) How did you get it to work with a single rechargable battery pack? The devices I found are both 3.7V, but the ground loop noise mentioned in the video is concerning.

@@inconspicuous-nobody He used two voltage sources (see 9:51) 12v for the amp and 4v for the ear bubs, or you could use an isolated DC to DC converter which "isolates" the grounds, coupled with a buck converter, or boost converter (from a single 18650) if you want to be able to charge the whole thing from USB.

@@andchip.s digital DC to DC converters introduce MAJOR noise into audio systems, especially a small system like this. Analog regulators are more inefficient, but sound much better.

@@davelowets Very true. How would you design the circuit with an analog regulator if you required the ground to be separate and using one single power source?

it comes down to skill, experience and craftsmanship. My grandpa can detect thicknesses with the accuracy of 10 micrometers with his bare hand. That's what happens if you are a craftsman for many decades.

The cool thing about the electronics is the fact that you can reuse them, which you probably didn't think of until he posted this.

@@alexc4924 Yeah, I wouldn't have thought about this, I thought these earbuds were not tinkerer friendly

Yes, really neat work. Though I would have included a USB power port for charging. Then put a small and cheap (~$5) 3 cell balance charger inside the speaker (and of course a 1 cell charger as well). Would be much more practical and added cost would be under $10 / speaker.

Skills are developed over time. If you're really interested in doing things like this you should just start doing stuff. Start small if you have to. You can do cool things with just simple tools like scissors or a utility knife, a ruler, cardboard, and glue. From cardboard you can move to something like 1/4" (or roughly 6mm) plywood; and so on. Doing small projects can help you to develop skills that you can use in more complex projects.

Yeap, i have the skills to do it physically, but lack the knowledge of fitting many of his tutorials to parts i have in hand, like laptop webcam standalone security camera. Got it working but probably due using HP laptop camera, there was no drivers and finding them become bit of a roadblock. I mean camera goes on, but just shows black screen. I still havent given up since i have multiple such cameras around, just need to test suitable one that works for me in future.

I’m using really high end headphones 🎧 sounds awesome

Oh ! I thought sound is made up of chickens wings......thanks for this useful information

I watch youtube through my 5.1 home theatre, there is definitely a difference... it almost sounded like a direct feed of the sound file.

you can do it pretty easily using VituixCAD (since TangBand speakers provide response graphs) or even with simple LP/HP Calculators for such project

Look up "RC filter" when you're bored they're cool to read about. He probably had to find the correct "crossover frequency" (the optimum frequency to separate the subwoofer and tweeter at) for those specific drivers and enclosure which probably took all the time, not the actual circuit, just FYI

Pretty standard for anyone who's done car audio. And rarely ever a preferred method if you're actually interested in audio quality.

@@dj0ignacio A truly stupid idea. like for real.

I'm not one of them, but I can kind of see why. The parts used are all expensive, the process is far from easy to adapt, and far less is explained than in older videos. It's less of a DIY process and more of a DIY showcase or promo. I've noticed the trend over the last year or so, and can't say I'm super into it either. It's not bad content or something like that though, so I just don't interact either way and leave it neutral.

Perhaps people who are jealous

Well then! I guess you better get yourself a good pair of working earbuds before you decide, whether or not you should invest in a pair of broken ones.. 😉😅😅

@@Superknullisch yeah i am actually searching for a budget good sounding wired earphone mainly for music and games

This video is a how-to on investing time and money for "meh" sounding speakers.

@@ThisGalaxyCat I see.. well, I guess I won't be of much help there, since I decided to never buy any cheap headphones ever again some four years ago. And hey, it's a choice I think you seriously should consider too, given thought on the fact, that one only get the pair of ears and their complex inner workings per person and lifetime.. So with that over complicatedly explained, I'd highly recommend you getting the Sennheiser IE800! Or IE800 S. Disgustingly expensive yes!! But also very detailed and tight. As well as very compact and the best looking earbuds out there imho!😉👌

@@Superknullisch I'll think about it thanks for the recommendation

what? these speakers sound muffled and unbalanced - over bassed - the bose sounds neutral.

the bose has far more detail

​@@jamesjrossyeah you right you clearly can hear them in youtube highly compressed sound and video

Yes, and it also probably cheaper than bose stereo and still can be much cheaper if use lowergrade material

@@joerisimmanuel9156 thank you for agreeing with me... I thought I was going mad

Really send us a curve-ball there. Me: let me guess, brass. He: Brass? Nah, wood and textiles.

That would be becuase brass isn't the best material for sound. Would have been nice if he had added some brass accents though... :)

Plus the brass might interfere with the bluetooth signal.

+1 on the interference with Bluetooth signal. Metal (or shiny surface if I remember correctly) reflect the signals away, deteriorating the signal by quite a bit

Metal is a bad idea for speaker enclosures. Wood has much better acoustics.

I'm surprised he didn't make them rechargeable as he did with previous designs!

That's what I thought as well when i see those battery

I also thought the same, maybe he didn't want the project to be more complicated for his audience

Hopefully he'll come up with an updated version

it's not really talent...it's skill that can be acquired by anyonw who puts up his mind to re-create it. Granted you need to invest some fair amount for the tools

I won't pretend I'm as good as this, but you can achieve a lot by just doing something! Don't be afraid to mess up, and make something. Each time you make something you get better, and it's very fulfilling to do so.

100% same Mr future Gohan! I'm 17 and broke so I can't do anything from this channel but he seems like such a lovely guy and it's cool to see how good he is at doing this shit. Also sorry about the arm 🙏

Yeah, I am creative and wanted to build these things but due to lack of funds and my parents don't allow to do these kinds of stuff, they just wanted me to study and get a job. Now I am 19 somehow my childhood is now ruined but I will never stop my kids to do these stuff.

This should be the top comment.

So should I wire in a laptop battery charging Input plugs into each speaker to charge those batteries? Is that enough or am I missing something

Also the aux in and a power supply connector for more versatility.

@@amosbieler5201 but aesthetics

@@satyasubhamsingh4912 True… And if _anyone_ can make a design element that allows the signal through, it's Matt!

Everything else is pretty much optional though. What matters is the idea that a set of earbuds can give you a way of connecting 2 speakers to one device, which I never thought of and it opens up a lot of opportunities. Maybe you dont need to build new speakers, maybe you already have some wired ones which you want to convert to wireless, all you need in that case would be a battery pack as the other circuits are already built in.

@@Chuckiele I've got some cheap wireless headphones that came with an old phone, and a shit soundbar I got free with a TV.. going to make a set of speakers for the office..

None of this is expensive.

@@LeisurelyLion In comparison to just buying a stereo bluetooth speaker, it kind of is. Sure, you have the potential to tailor the sound to your liking, but you'll be paying extra for that plus the tools required to build it and all the time spent on building and testing it. Now if you happen to have these components already from old appliances, that's a bit of a different story, but there's no guarantee they'll sound any better or even as good as a speaker that costs the same or less

@@LeisurelyLion of course it is ya douche, once you take all of the tools into account and even the tin of wood stain. All of it will far outweigh the cost of a new set of BT speakers, this project should have been done in the light of upcycling. That way it would have made more sense...

@Psyqa yo fellow Chika fam, what speakers are you gonna use cause these are expensive

I am too

@Psyqa hmm, lemme know about the speakers if you can, and how it went for you too

I love describing it as crunchy, I had never heard that before, but when I started getting into HiFi I can really tell what they mean by it, and it's like the only way to describe it!

@@ImPattMan Absolutely, and agreed! As a musician and music production enthusiast, I think when you hear this broad and crisp "crunchiness," it usually has something to do with how well the "saturation" in the mix is passed through by the speakers. Saturation is (usually) a broad spectrum, barely noticeable distortion that adds rich harmonics to instruments, mixes, etc... And, cranked to a higher level, it also produces that delicious crunch on bass, guitars, drums... you name it. Unfortunately, it's one of the first things that is audibly lost on a low quality set of speakers, since the harmonic spectrum isn't reproduced as accurately.
