I found 2 resources which will help give me a better understanding on how these sound-circuits work: The Audiophile Project Handbook & the science of sound w/ sound projects books. I am not getting enough ohms to the speaker itself, so I will bring in my personal headphone amplifier that I have at my house. It should provide the amperage needed to power the speaker. I also worked on the speakerbox for the rest of the time.

On this day, I switched from paper springs, to metal springs, which will provide resistance to the magnets and hopefully allow vibrations and for sound to travel through the magnetized flow more properly. The second thing I did, was re-adjust the current flow in the headphone wires that I acquired. I connected the other ear wires, as these were stereo. I also worked on a metal frame for this that should amplify the sound output.

What is this page? If you are wondering what this is for, it is a blog about the physics behind a speaker system. I will attempt to create a working speaker and subwoofer system out of simple parts by testing the physics and circuitry of a self-made speaker.

List of acheivements
-gather supplies for speaker
-assemble working speaker
-test speaker to play music
-gather supplies for subwoofer
-assemble subwoofer from instructions
-play music in unison to the speaker system.
