Nautilus speakers

insta

I printed these as a gift for my father.  He’s not an audiophile, but he does appreciate good music and certainly understands what makes speakers sound good.  These were printed in halves, solvent-welded together, smoothed with autobody filler & sandpaper, then painted with gloss black spraypaint.

Hardware parts list (everything was from Parts Express):

  • 2x Part # 091-1245
  • 2x Part # 240-676
  • 2x Part # 296-717

The frequency response was surprisingly wide.  The nautilus shape is hollow all the way back, and creates a relatively large enclosure for the speakers.  I haven’t measured it, but I wouldn’t be surprised to know these 3″ drivers were reproducing down to 100hz.
