Initial Renderings


These printed monitors came out of a desire to combine my love of 3D printing and my passion for good audio. They have an F3 of 42Hz, flat response through 21kHz, and excellent off-axis response courtesy of the interesting waveguide on the Tymphany tweeter.

From Cut-Away and Internal Void


While designing these speakers, I knew I was going to control them with a 2x4 DSP and with independent control over each of the drivers, I felt comfortable straying from a more conventional look. In order to keep a relatively large internal volume, I routed the ports outside of the speakers, merging them back into the sides, where they form an interesting air-scoop look. As they are powered speakers with 2 channels each, I’ve mounted an amplifier in the base.
