Introduction: How to Make a Speaker
How to make a speaker out of household materials. This is still a work in progress and I will add more photos soon.
Supplies
These are the materials I used
28 AWG Enameled Copper Wire
10x10 mm neodymium magnet
Cheap car amplifier, or Pam8406
Soldering iron and solder
Paper
Step 1:
Cut a circle out of paper with a compass. Fold paper into cone shape. Cut small strip of paper and tape around magnet. Hot glue magnet and paper to paper cone.
Step 2:
Wrap lots of wire around paper cylinder(around 15 times),and hot glue to paper, leaving 2-3 inches on each end. Melt off the enamel from both ends of the wire
Step 3:
I just connected the ends of the speaker coil to the wires of the amplifier, but you can also solder it to a pam8403 board if you want. With the car amplifier, you get bluetooth and a screen, but if you don't need that, an amplifier board works fine
Step 4:
Build an enclosure, get creative!!
