Loudspeaker system

This presentation will demonstrate the design, construction, testing, and final performance of a student designed loudspeaker system. The purpose of this project was to create a 2.1 channel, high quality sound system that produces a bandwidth just short of the full range of human hearing, approximately 20–20 000 Hz. This system consists of 2 two-way speakers utilizing a woofer and tweeter, with one separate subwoofer. The function of this particular sound system is to reproduce sound faithfully in a 350–400 square foot room. The performance characteristics of this system will be presented through frequency response and linearity testing results. These tests were used to calculate and implement modifications made to the cabinet size and shape while adhering to a budget of $1200. The analysis of every performance will also reveal data for different electrical component values in designing the Linkwitz-Riley crossovers.
