Non-3D printed parts required

2x Tectonic TEBM35C10-4 BMR 2" Full-Range Speaker 4 Ohm (from Parts Express in US)

1m / 3 feet long 3.5mm Stereo jack to RCA cable that can be separated, so each channel can be soldered to a speaker.

For DAS, you can either disassemble and reuse the original headphone metal fastener (guide: https://www.dropbox.com/s/61076nbnrh0kjvy/OE1%20DAS%20Disassemble%20Guide.pdf?dl=0). Alternatively, you can buy a CNC version from our store.

Print instructions

No support, 15% infill PLA / PETG

Assembly instructions

You need to solder the audio cable to the speakers, take care to solder the correct channel (use multimeter).

The drivers should snap fit into place in the driver housing. You should not need any glue if printed correctly.

Audio adjustment

By default, the drivers are a little light on deep bass. We are working on an external DSP to equalize the frequency response adding PA-bass.
