Hi everyone! So good to be back with yet another speaker project after a long break.
Since most of my builds require quite a few tools to complete, this time I decided to build a portable speaker using a kit that you can purchase easily. I thought it would be a great idea to share a high quality speaker kit that is easy to assemble on your own and sounds great just as well.
I was fortunate enough to have Parts Express provide me with an inexpensive MKBoom speaker kit that consists of the drivers, the KAB amp board with the necessary accessories, port tubes, crossover boards, and the knock-down cabinets which are of great quality. If you are wondering about building a speaker yourself, I highly encourage you take a look at this MKBoom speaker kit.
I have to say that I am very impressed with the overall quality of this speaker kit. From great packaging to high quality of the CNC’d panels, this kit provides all the needed instructions, bolts, screws etc. to help you build a one of a kind portable Bluetooth speaker that you can customise however you like and that also sounds amazing.
Producing clear highs, wide soundstage and punchy and submerging bass from 4 inch woofers is just incredible. It sounds even better knowing that this speaker has been built by yourself.
To my mind, this speaker has an incredible value – not only is it not pricey, it is also a one of a kind speaker that you won’t be able to buy off-the-shelf at the store since it will be customised with a unique design.
I have this speaker playing some soft jazz tunes while writing this description and can’t get enough of the great sound quality it produces.
Hope you give this build a try!
See you on the next one!

hello, include language translator in your video on youtube – please your very interesting projects.
sound can be improved by adding soundproofing inside the walls.
Thanks
woooow!
Can you please tell me the size of this case?
You did a nice job. Pity there’s no grill to protect the drivers.
Liuzliuz 🙂
Simple perfect 👏👏👏👍
Hello, congratulations for your work.
Could you give me the thickness of the wood used and the diameter of the tube? Thank you
Hey, Donny, just finished building mine. Sounds really good, and boy does it crank! Lots of power.
I was quite surprised at how good it sounds. I hooked up a cd player through the aux port. Works like a charm. Bluetooth synched up no problem.
Parts Express has some really cool kits! Very reasonably priced.
👏👏👏👏💪👍
If we order on one part Express, will supply all items together, as I am in india. I don’t was want piece by piece order.
You contact no.
哪裡買
Price for EU – 250 € for this kit sounds little bit expensive
Box size pls
Damn you don’t need jbl if you have this
Padrísimo!…
Hey Donny, i am maybe planning on buying this set and i would like to know something. How is the bass on this thing? because i like a bit of hearable bass. and how many people can conncect on the speaker?
What do you use before painting?
Can you tell me hole dimensions for speakers. Tnx.
Just enough attention to detail. without being all anal-retentive.
Sure wish there were options for EQ and headphone out.
請問這些材料要去哪裡買？
Would using lots of clamps while gluing reduce the need for filler in the joints?
How much?
What is the name of the first music? and your builds are great.
Thanks for posting this! Without it I would not have been able to figure out my MKBoom. This should be the official video! @partsexpress
Great job 👏
I thought it was excellent, very well presented and delivered, I thought you would have done another coat of paint and I’ve not checked yet but hope you’ve done a link to the component parts. DG New Forest U.K.
How much price
I watched your video.. Almost all is good, but… C`mon, dude.. you were gluing up perfectly machined boards using tape..!!?? why the hell?? You ended up with horrible gaps between panels which you filled with putty.. buy yourself some clamps and the end result will be way better. Other than that, good work
At 7:29 after you applied the sealer, what kind of sand paper/sanding block did you use?
Nice job😁
Hi, I want buy its, can I buy its. Thanks you, I’m from VietNam
LO PODRIAS VENDER
Did you use any specific spray colour?
Just built this unit. sounds pretty impressive!!… worth every penny!… used for 6 hrs straight at pretty high volume and the batteries lasted no problem. Played all types of music. For wattage, price and size theres no other Bluetooth speaker like this👍
Pls tell me tcp15-4 or nd105-4 which is best ?
Será que enviam para o Brasil ?
how much the budget
Hy Donny.
Can i put around 8 or 10 batteries to that circuit board ?
Hm… 119$ vs 199 EURO. Here (in Europe) we don’t eat the tomatoes with the bush…
Wow…! 😮👍👍
👍👍👍👍
Padrísimo!…
what do you seal it with?
А где заказывали комплектующие ?
very very niceee build 🤟🤟
Awesome build! Really looks like something you could buy in a store. Aren’t the Reflex Tubes a little small though? I’ve heard as a rule of thumb the hole of the tube should be about 1/5 of the membrane area…
Dont need a dampening material inside?
Hello, can you provide some dimensions for the port tubes and how to make crossovers? I can’t find them in the specification list. Thanks, great video.
Very nice DIY vid. You got yourself a new subscriber. Keep it up sir.. Best regards..
