Hey there, fellow explorers of sound! I'm Gareth together we're going to have a blast!

Ever since I can remember, I've been utterly fascinated by the magic of music and the incredible ways in which sound can move us, inspire us, and make us feel alive. And here's the thing—I've never been a math whiz or a tech genius. Nope, I'm just a regular person like you who's passionate about sharing the joy of building sound with others.

So, if you've ever felt intimidated by the idea of diving into something new, believe me, I get it. But here's the beauty of it—we don't have to have all the answers right away. We can learn as we go, make mistakes, and laugh at ourselves along the way. After all, that's how we grow!

Now, onto the exciting stuff! Welcome to the thrilling world of DIY speaker design, where creativity knows no bounds and innovation reigns supreme. In these courses, we invite you to embark on an exhilarating journey of discovery as you delve into the art and science of crafting your own speakers from scratch.

Why DIY, you might ask? The answer lies in the boundless opportunities and unique advantages that DIY speaker design offers:

Unleash Your Creativity: DIY speaker design empowers you to unleash your creativity and express yourself through sound. Whether you dream of building sleek, modern speakers that blend seamlessly with your décor or quirky, avant-garde creations that push the boundaries of design, the possibilities are limited only by your imagination.

Learn by Doing: DIY speaker design isn't just about the end result—it's about the journey. Through hands-on experimentation and practical application of theoretical concepts, you'll gain invaluable knowledge and skills that can't be acquired through passive observation alone. Whether you're a seasoned audio enthusiast or a curious beginner, there's no better way to learn than by rolling up your sleeves and diving in headfirst.

Cost-Effective Solutions: Building your own speakers can also save you money in the long run. By bypassing retail markups and labor costs, DIY enthusiasts can often achieve comparable or even superior performance to commercial offerings at a fraction of the price. Plus, with the flexibility to upgrade and modify your speakers over time, you can future-proof your investment and adapt to changing needs and preferences.

Join a Thriving Community: Last but certainly not least, DIY speaker design offers the opportunity to connect with a vibrant community of like-minded enthusiasts and experts. Whether online forums, local meetups, or hands-on workshops, there's no shortage of opportunities to share knowledge, exchange ideas, and collaborate on exciting projects. From seasoned veterans to wide-eyed newcomers, everyone has something to contribute and learn.

The adventure begins now. Are you ready to take the plunge?

Our aim is to introduce the terms and principals with some practical application which will help grow confidence quickly!

Understanding Sound: An Introduction to Acoustics and the many terms associated within the field of audio and loudspeakers.

Exploring Speaker Components: Drivers, Enclosures, and Crossovers, what do these things do and how does it effects what we hear.

Tools and Materials for Speaker design, Learn what tools are required and understand how to use them effectively. 

Basic Speaker Design Principles: Enclosure Types and Driver Selection, how do you actual start?

Hands-On: Building Your First Speaker Prototype, take an idea and turn it into something you can listen to.

At the end of this course you will be able to look at a specification sheet and know exactly what you are looking at to be able to design with confidence, all the terminology covered you should be able to quickly model any speaker system quickly & differentiate products quickly   

This course assumes you understand the basics of designing and predicting performance of a loudspeaker, here we start to get more serious taking Zma & Frd measurements to design crossovers and better systems.

Advanced Speaker Enclosure Design: Using more advanced design diving deeper into critical aspects that make good speakers "good"

Crossover Network Design: Fine-Tuning Your Speaker's Performance by modeling more advanced networks with an increase complexity 

Advanced Tools and Measurement Techniques for Speaker Analysis, go from understanding the terms and the general idea of "how to" and knowing "what it does" to actually applying real life measurements through capturing and validating technical data.

At the end of the Advanced course you will have the confidence to design multiway loudspeakers, use various design tools and take Zma & Frd measurements to design custom crossovers
