Greenman's Jukebox Build - Finally Finished!

<< < (3/26) > >>

matsadona:
Nice. I'm planning to do a Jukebox build next as well based on a Rasperry Pi with rpi-fruitbox and a Hifi Berry hat.
Will follow your build for inspiration  :cheers:

DaOld Man:
I like this project. Will be following your work.

matsadona: please keep us updated on the rpi jukebox, sounds interesting.

Greenman:
So I'm working on some scale diagrams at the moment.  I scoured the web and the only dimensions I can find are length, width and height.  Also no drawings either, only pictures which are very difficult to scale to due to the camera angle, lens etc.  Relying on pics and Youtube videos unfortunately.

The issue with these jukeboxes is that they have two main speakers right at the bottom, with a very small opening for sound and a large panel of glass above.  I really want to open that area up a bit if I can to improve the sound.  Would be easier to build something else, but the missus has her heart set on this model.

Here is a side view of a crude attempt to scale.  Once done, I'll set the photocopier up to print it out full size. 

Lucky I'm not starting this project till 2019  ::)

matsadona:
The two speakers in the bottom, aren't they just the woofers?
I.e. I assumed that there are tweeters and mid-range speakers in the upper part (between the selection panel at top and the disc labels) .
For the lower bass you don't need that much openings. If it is a vented enclosure the port openings is quite complex thing to calculate as well - if you want it to be right with frequencies and gain (however not that hard when you know what you are doing and got the correct formulas).

Mike A:
I never would have thought of putting boobs on a jukebox. That is genius.
