Step 1:

First I designed the speaker enclosure using the Freecad software and then printed it with my Ender 3 3D printer.

Please find the attached STL file of the enclosure (only use it as a reference).

Step 2:

Next mount two 3.5mm stereo jacks. The first jack is used for Audio input and the second jack is used to connect the second speaker

Step 3:

Next, add a DC jack to power the amplifier with 5volt

Step 4:

Next, mount the 4ohm 3-watt speaker and secure it with hot glue

Step 5:

Next, connect the pins of the DC jack to the 5V pins of the amplifier

Step 6:

Next, connect the pins of one of the 3.5mm audio jacks to the audio input pins on the amplifier

Step 7:

Next, connect the speaker to the left out on the amplifier

Step 8:

Next, connect the Right out of the amplifier to the free 3.5mm jack

Step 9:

Next, close the enclosure and connect the two speakers with a 3.5mm audio cable and then supply it with 5V.
