I've been working from home for over a year and felt my PC desktop audio system needed an upgrade. This sub-woofer is based on the Peerless Tymphany SDS-135F25CP02-04 5.25 inch driver which costs < $30. I 3d printed the cabinet using PETG. I'm amazed at how good this sounds and feels. I created a short video in case others are interested. Please note that the video does not show the bezel that was created after the video was made.
Print Settings:
- No rafts
- No supports
- 45% Infill
- Filament material: PETG or PLA
Notes:
In order to deal with the stress the driver will create and to sound as it should, print with:
- 4mm walls.
- 40% to 50% infill. I used 45% cubic.
- PETG, PLA should work as well.
- If you can, slow down the fan a little to make sure the filament bonds very well. If using PETG as I did, turn off the cooling fan. Another option is to extrude at a slightly higher temperature.
