Monacor project part 2: Building and testing the DIY speaker
In the second part of my Monacor project, I show step by step how I build and test the finished speaker. From wood selection and construction to the final sound check, I show the most important steps of the building process. I also show important tips and tricks that I learnt during the construction of my DIY Bluetooth speaker.
