How To Install Amp And Sub In Ve Commodore


Can i still install the SUB with factory speakers – just get an amp. Anyone done this before – is that. I not a breaking glass sound freak – decent volume with quality is what i prefer the factory speakers are doing fine – just to add bit more bass to it – im trying if i can make a cheap alternative as im getting the.
Get ready to build a tough & rugged boombox! ' RaveBOX (v1.0)' can charge USB devices, play MP3s and tune to FM stations! It also comes with an IR remote offering better convenience. The boombox gives action sports and outdoor enthusiasts 18 hours of nonstop music.
Whether you're at the beach, shooting rapids, or hiking outdoors, the boombox remains safe in its tough (Pelican-like) weatherproof shell. How I Came Up With The Design: It's been a while since I last posted my last boombox tutorial, it was pretty much a success but as we all know technology advances annually. RaveBOX is now as powerful as my old boombox but it's half the size of the old one. I really had no design when I made this project, I had a 'go with the flow' sort of vibe. One day I went to the mall to buy my usual supplies then suddenly I came across this generic Pelican-like case. They were selling it for like P480 ($9.60), I still had some speaker lying around, so I thought it would be cool to fit my four unused fullrange speakers + my 4' HiFi woofer. With no hesitation, I bought the awesome looking case.
As I went back home, I started searching for parts in my inventory. I still had some amp chips lying around.
I found two extra 2x3 Amp Modules (form dx.com) and my beloved Bluetooth Player Module (from dx.com). All that's left is my battery, I wanted to make sure that my boombox would last a day of non-stop playback without charging, so I though of a solution! My robots are using LiPo batteries since they had a high 'size to power' ratio, meaning they have a high mAh rating for their extremely compact size. Since the competition is still scheduled for December, I borrowed some of my LiPo batteries and decided to put them in my new speaker project. Specs/ Features: - 2.1 Channel Audio System (6W + 6W + 20W) - USB Charging Capabilities (6600mAh) - 18hrs Max Playback (LiPo Bat) - Bluetooth 3.0 Audio Connection - 3.5 Stereo Auxiliary Connection - Equipped w/ FM Radio Tuner - IR Remote Control WARNING! You'll need some basic soldering skills, a little knowledge of electronics, and some patience to build this.

The PAM8403 needs a decent 5v regulator. The 7805 isn't enough to power two PAM8403 amp modules. Maybe it can, but by powering them with two separate 7805s.
The 7805 is an outdated regulator, so better buy a 2 ampere USB car charger, it's much more effecient compared to having two 7805s. Plus the car charger's heat dissipation is much lower than the 7805s. 1st.) Disasseble the cheap 12v USB charger 2nd.) Get the charger's circuit 3rd.) Disolder the USB's female plug. 4th.) Solder both PAM8403 amp module's 5v-input parallel to the 12v USB charger's 5v output. Step 9: Mono Amp PCB Fabrication. I still had some LiPo batteries lying around in my workspace, I decided to use them for now.
Lithium Polymer batteries serve as an excellent choice for long lasting power performance. Hdr Efex Pro Torrent Download here. The speaker can last for 18hrs @89dB, that's pretty good for an outstanding & punchy boombox. Remember, Lithium batteries don't like to get themselves drained for a long time, if they do, they bloat. And don't forget, they need special chargers, the ones with configurable LCD screens. Be careful with them and don't forget to do a monthly check on the battery!
I modified an old Philips boombox. It was quite heavy, thanks to the transformer and other AC parts inside, so i removed everything inside that was related to AC power. Then i removed the cassette unit, because it was broken, and i don't have any cassette tapes laying around except Commodore 64 games. Then i glued a cover from my old smartphone to the lid of the cassette unit, and I think it turned out pretty well. Now i can watch video on the phone while it's playing from the boombox speakers.
I also made a battery pack from 12 cellphone batteries. I guess it sounds odd, but it actually works well.
I've connected them in series of 3, paralel 4 times. There's a good amount of juice right there.
At first when all this was soldered and put together, everything worked well, except for one thing. The bluetooth mode was constantly playing some buzzing sounds, and it was terrible.
I tried a lot of things to get around this, but nothing worked, until i discovered that there was no buzzing sound when the Bluetooth module was connected to a seperate power source. Thinking that 2 seperate batteries would be a mess, i decided to buy an isolated power supply. (I actually didn't know it existed before this project:P) I connected it to my cicuit to the module, and now everything works perfect. I bought this one: But i've measured the bluetooth module to consume a little more than 1 watt, so i'm sure this one will be a better solution: It's more expensive, but i'm sure it's worth it. I have plans attatching some LED strips to the boombox to make it look fancy:D. Hey Jamie, i've experienced the same issue. I've made a boombox too, with this exact bluetooth module, and mine was making a lot of noise when switched to Bluetooth mode.
I tried a lot of different things, including connecting some capacitors i had laying around. I found, that when the bluetooth module was connected to a seperate power source, everything worked fine! But that's not good enough, and two seperate batteries in the boombox would just be a mess! So I thought about some kind of circuit isolator, but i wasn't sure if it existed.
And I've connected mine to my circuit today, and boom, everything sounds perfect! I bought this one: But then when i measured the amps consumed by the module, i found out that the module is consuming a little more than 1 watt, so this one will probably die out not too soon:/ then i looked for another one with a higher wattage, and found this one: I've ordered it, but haven't recieved it yet. But it's so easy to connect, just solder 4 wires, and you're good to go:D This last one is quite a bit more expensive, but I'm pretty sure it's worth it. I'll leave another post in a while to tell if the first one still works, or if it's fried:D.
Excellent project. I have been designing my own in my mind for ages, bought all the fun parts (bluetooth module, lipo, amp modules) but havent gotten around to making it all just yet.
The questions that i havent figured out yet: have you got a battery management system? How long out of one charge do you get? Have you pulled the guts from a 12v DC 2.1 system that was originally made to plug into AC (always on) power? Will this be a drain on the battery and what happens if your battery goes flat? Otherwise, excellent! Here's what I'm in the process of building: Power - USB power bank, BT USB receiver dongle, PAM8493 amp board with volume control.
USB power bank - power, charging, 5V out Get a power bank. I got one claiming to be '8,000 mAh' - I doubt it actually is.
But I figure I'll get probably an hour or two per 1,000mAh at 3/4 volume - though I haven't built/tested yet, so I don't know. Just my estimates from reading the specs. I got a power bank with two independent outputs. The BT and Amp will be powered by the 2A port (3W @ 5V ~ 0.6A, times two channels ~ more than 1A.
The 1A port will be brought out by USB extender so you can charger your phone (from power bank) while you're playing BT tunes from it. Win, win, win. EBay search for: $2.97 3.5mm stereo audio music speaker receiver adapter dongle USB Bluetooth wireless $3.00 PAM8403 5V power audio amplifier board 2 channel 3W volume control/USB power You don't even need to disassemble/dissect the power bank. Power both from 5V from the power bank. Plug in a USB cable to the USB output and cut it open. Put a switch in the 5V wire in the way to Amp and BT. Run a micro USB cable from the charging port out of your enclosure for charging.
Run 'aux out' from BT receiver to Amp. Wire speakers to amp. Thread volume control through panel. Maybe I'll do my first instructable:).
Let me just say that your project inspired me to do my own version. The problem is that im a bit stuck. Here is my flow diagram and i tried to go quick and easy on the set up. I understand the speakers and amp are bigger but the batteries i use dont last me much. The 1350 mAh lasts me 30 mins and the 2200 mA lasts me around an hour. Considering i cabled everything straight up without a regulator, resistors etc. What can i do to get more of my batteries?
Im no expert so any help will be greatly appreciated! It's hard to know without knowing the circuitry of your amplifier, but if it does not have a capacitive input stage, this would present a problem that might manifest itself in buzzing. Try adding a capacitor inline with the amplifier input (after the 'combiner' resistors) as is show in the mono-amplifier circuit diagram. They are the 2.2uF capacitors on the left hand side. The volume may be low because of the value of the 10K 'combiner' resistors. I imagine the original poster found those values from sone experimental testing, or they were recommended for the specific TDA209.
The input impedance of your amplifier may be much lower than the one used here. What type of signal is supposed to drive it's? Speaker level? Does it have its own volume control? I'd suggest removing the resistors and temporarily replacing one with a 10k potentiometer. Start with the pot turned to present maximum resistance. Slowly decrease the resistance until an acceptable volume - matching the smaller speakers is found.
Then remove the pot and install two resistors if (I think) twice the value of the resistance of the pot (you'll be getting signal from both channels). You may need to tweak. If this doesn't help, providing more info on your actual design might help someone provide you with a solution.
