Hi! My name is Donny and I'm pleased to share with You my first YouTube video of how to make my DIY Portable Bluetooth Speaker /Boombox build. Feel free to leave a comment below for any questions!

I designed the speaker on Sketchup. I chose to use MDF of 6mm thickness for the enclosure, since it is easy to cut and sand to achieve the desired shapes. For the control panel I used 3mm plywood, which I later wrapped with Carbon Fiber Vinyl. The box was also wrapped with Faux Leather Vinyl.

My main tool in this build was the Makita Jigsaw. Since I do not have access to a table saw, my cuts with the jigsaw had to be somewhat precise and accurate.

Using the semi-DIY drill and the jigsaw, I was able to drill holes for the speakers, control panel and the passive radiator.

After the cuts have been made, a piece of sandpaper was used to round over the corners and give the enclosure a nicer look and feel. A bigger size drill bit was used to countersink the holes on the back panel of the speaker.

I'd say this is the most time consuming and frustrating part of the build. Applying the Vinyls. I started with applying the Carbon Fiber vinyl to the control panel, front and back baffles. This material is somewhat resistant to scratches and cuts. It sticks well to a prepared surface and is easily stretched with the persuasion of a heat gun.

Since it was my first time using this vinyl, I did end up with torn vinyl around the tweeter holes, as you can see in the video. But a little dab with a black marker covered the mistakes. The vinyl really makes the subtle curves of the ports pop in sunlight, showing the fake weave in the vinyl.

Then I used contact cement to glue in the passive radiator and apply the faux leather vinyl. The tweeters are held in place with a healthy amount of hot glue. I covered the enclosure and the vinyl with contact glue, gave it a few minutes to dry and then stuck them together. The leather vinyl is stretchable, so I was able to form it around the corners and roundovers. After all that hassle I glued in the control panel.

Then there was a lot of soldering. Wiring the switches and ports, mounting them in, soldering the battery together. The electronics turned out to be working great, I was able to insert a small LED light in the control panel for the Bluetooth. The Power Button looks awesome on this speaker, it doesn't glow too bright, but the white light gives it that unique and eye-catching look.

To me, the best part about this speaker is the Power Button OFF action. When the speaker is turned off, the Power Button light slowly fades away, it does not shut down immediately. I guess the reason why it does so, is that the capacitors in the amplifier are slowly discharging in to the LED light in the button. You can see what I am talking about at the end of the build video.

Finally I was able to insert the front panel on to the enclosure and admire my project at its glory. I used a long piece of foam-like material for the gasket on the back panel to seal the speaker. Then I added my logo on the back side and screwed down the back panel.

I then stuck on a few pairs of adhesive pads on the bottom, gave the speaker a charge and it was now ready for some action!

Hi everyone!👋

Thank you for checking out this portable Bluetooth WiFi speaker build I have come up with. As always I will have the laser-cut plans, the wiring diagram and the whole parts and tools list on my Instructables page. Make sure you check my Instructable page too for more details. Let's get started!

For this speaker I decided to try implementing not only Bluetooth 4.0 but also a WiFi module. Here I am using the Up2Stream WiFi module which is super easy to use and delivers great sound quality at a reasonable price. There is also an Aux input which when plugged in automatically disables the Bluetooth or WiFi input letting us make a simpler and cleaner looking speaker with less buttons and switches which is always pleasing to get rid of.

The speaker is powered by three Lithium Ion 18650 cells connected in series, resulting in 12.6 Volts total and a capacity of around 3Ah. The cells are being monitored by a Battery Management System (BMS) which I will show in depth of how to connect it to the cells. After testing I can confirm that these cells are able to provide the necessary power for around 6-8 hours depending on the volume.

For the amplifier I chose one of my favorite Class D amplifiers — the Yamaha YDA138-E. It delivers plenty of power in to the drivers with plenty of bass and clear highs. One of the best features of this amplifier is that there is absolutely no audible noise being projected when the speaker is not playing. I have tried many Class D amplifier and I can truly say that this one is top of the range in it's price point.

For the Bluetooth module I chose the KRC-86B Bluetooth 4.0 audio receiver. Nowadays there are many boards superior to this one but it still performs great, delivers unobstructed sound and connects instantly to the streaming device.

I have to say — I am happy the way this speaker has turned out. My apologies for the crappy sound test on the video but you will have to take my word for it — not only does it look decent but it sounds good too! I did make a few flaws here and there when building the speaker but hey — at least I learned something! And I truly hope you did too! Thank you so much for checking this project out, I hope I inspired you to build a speaker of your own. And if you are still hesitating — do it! It is super rewarding and the knowledge you get by making it is priceless. Not to mention the fun!

Thank you once again for tuning in to this project of mine and I will see you on the next one!

In this VS episode we will have a closer look at the most common Bluetooth boards for the Arduino. Along the way I will present you how easy it is to implement such a board in a Bluetooth project and whether it makes sense to use Bluetooth 4.0 (BLE) or whether we should stick to Bluetooth 2.0.
