my phone takes garbage pictures but here it is.

feel the jank

repurposed stereo speaker on a big ass box. has way more volume and bass response than you'd expect. he sells em for pretty cheap and has lots of different speaker and box combos depending on what you're looking for. would recommend.
Cool. Suppose it would be even more responsive in a tighter wood box? Must look into this.
