Help with picking the right components appreciated

Made a few changes to audio_setup.sh :

amixer set Master 99% > /dev/null 2>&1
amixer set Capture 50% > /dev/null 2>&1

Rebooted once. So far, so good.

had a DL-8 hooked up and wasn’t that impressed. That extra frequency range added to those wont make that big of a deal, i suppose.

But this most due to the enclosure you’re running them in.

This will get you an idea what the mark2 is up to in terms of components.
@gez-mycroft Have you hashed out the speaker yet?

btw I would be so bold and bridge the power button

Not impressed in what sense? Did you use it for music and expect a great sound? For me the quality of speech is most important.

You lost me again. Don’t forget I know nothing about electronics :smile:

For the speaker drivers, we have likely candidates but don’t think we have had to lock them in yet.

I’m still using the OTS prototypes which use:

Peerless TC5FC07-04 1-1/2" Full-Range Driver 4 Ohm - available on parts express

@derick-mycroft might be able to provide more detail and FDM compatible files, as I believe the design of your speaker chamber has a big impact on how any drivers sound in the real world.

For the time being, I will have to do with either my JBL or the set of cheapo’s whose volume is abominable. I’ll have continue my struggle next week, because this week I must spent time on a project and try to make some money :slight_smile:
