Invisible Book Speakers

Step 5Poking holes

Poking holes
There is still an unbroken layer of thin cardboard between the speaker and the outside. Using a safety pin, or something similar, poke lots of holes in the spine of the books.

Great idea! Maybe you could use books with dark covers, so you won't see the holes at all.

it would be nice to hide the holes. Perhaps you could use books that come with a paper jacket and after making the holes attach them to the books? The sound would still be able to come through nicely but it would look more attractive.

then it would even better to make bigger holes into the cardboard, because then the paper jacket can act like a second speaker membrane
