Timpelay - NR200CH

[Timpelay]

Making some internal cables with 2x 3 mm².

A bit larger than the usual cable works when making cables for computers. But large and beautiful.

The 50/50 mix of pure Cu and silver plated is awesome.

 

 

Forgot to take that money shot of the bass reflex so will do that for final photos

Next step in the assembly process is more internal panels. Top and backside.

 

Same as for the front, the back will be built using alot of parts all together in a sandwish construction locking things together tight.

I designed the bass reflex tube to be a two split piece going from a radius pipe inside the speaker to a CM shaped exhaust at the back. 

Also applying the CM logo as the internal bracket going through the back internal wall.

 

I used the exact same size and shape for the terminal as for the bass reflex. But "filled" it with angled holders for cable terminals.

 

Yet again I designed a bracket that attached to the steel frame of the case locks in place just by clamping force. 

 

 

 

Cables from tweeter will go on top and cables from woofer down in the double bottom.

The black sheets are bitumen self adhesive pads to ad weight and reduce vibration.

If its not enough I'll add dampening material in the gap between inner and outher parts of the sides.

 

 

 

The adjustable filter mounted at the bottom with connections faceing backwards.

 

 

All cables routed (shown at the back of the picture).

The white mounting bracket fits perfect to the steel frame without any modifications done to it.

Here again I added the brass M4 inserts which is my best choice of parts done in a good while!

 

 

 

And mounted to the frame!

All held in place by itself when mounting the steel frame back together.

 

The backside will have 8 visible screws, 4 for each assembly and will clamp it all together secure and tight.

Backside in 5 mm glossy beautiful black acrylic fits perfect with cut outs for bassreflex and terminal.

Both mounted with 4 screws each making the back sandwish construction tight and complete.

 

THe top of the speaker still consists of the case "front" and just clicks in place like before.

 

 

I've decided to go with the orignal case feet to make the NR200P design complete. They got rubber pads so actually makes a pretty good speaker feet.

The feet are attatched to a bottom plate that is mouunted to the steel frame.

 

Super easy to just remove and install other feet if I ever feel I need to change them.

Time to play some music!

Fronts...

[Timpelay]

Speakers are finished!

Test played some funky notes and they performed way better than expected without any sealing, dampening, tweaks or playtime on them.  SO EXCITED!

 

Was heading to Dreamhack Winter for the Casemod Championship with another project and an opportunity to showcase the just finished speakers at Cooler Master booth/buss appeared.

Lets say I jumped on it!

 

Please let me introduce the finalized NR200CH pair of stereo speakers!

Really love this speaker mod, how is the range on the focal flax speakers?

Thanks!

 

Woofer is 55-28kHz.

Not sure where default mode on the filter cuts it at the high.
