These DML (Distributed Mode Loudspeakers) panel speakers are fully suspended on hidden wall mounts giving superior audio quality without sacrificing aesthetics. • -Exciter placement, see NOTE-1 BELOW. • -Distance from wall, NOTE-2 BELOW. • To Get the Job Done: • Dayton Audio Exciter shown in video (25mm 24W 4-Ohm): https://amzn.to/2EAPCxf • Dayton Exciter (32mm 40W 4-Ohm QUAD Feet): https://amzn.to/2UkiCgE • Dayton Exciter (32mm 40W 4-Ohm): https://amzn.to/2Ymqeo5 • Dayton Exciter (25mm 20W 4-Ohm): https://amzn.to/3yNjeP8 • Dayton Exciter (25mm 20W 4-Ohm Vented): https://amzn.to/3fdP1Rr • Dayton Exciter (32mm 10W 8-Ohm): https://amzn.to/3fIVtyX • Dayton Exciter 10W 8-Ohm PAIR (2): https://amzn.to/3bQao9r • 5/32 x 2 Cotter Pins Shown in Video (10-Pack): https://amzn.to/35ivmeA • 1/8 x 2 cotter pins (easier to bend than the ones in video): https://amzn.to/32qiPTb • Glue Gun w/Glue Sticks: https://amzn.to/3U9kPbA • The sander in the video: https://amzn.to/2XV1znz • Cheaper sander: https://amzn.to/33TlHKJ • Assorted sand paper: https://amzn.to/30T0y1w • Assorted Sanding Blocks: https://amzn.to/33SIruf • 3M 2-sided adhesive tape: https://amzn.to/3u9xphw • Other Things to consider: • Polk Audio PSW10 Subwoofer (Good Reviews) Pre-Ins (self-powered) or speaker line inputs: https://amzn.to/3nfAJ3N • Well-Reviewed Bluetooth Amps: Bluetooth 5.0 Amp 2-Channel: https://amzn.to/3jKsQH3 • Bluetooth 5.0 Amp w/SUB Out 2.1 50W+50W +100W: https://amzn.to/2VWRFnO • Bluetooth 5.0 Amp w/SUB Out 2.1 50W+50W +100W: https://amzn.to/2QOP8JW • Power Supply (19V) For Above Bluetooth Amps: https://amzn.to/3PeLJ2x • Tube Amp Bluetooth 5.0 50W+50W w/SUB Pre-Out Optical Input: https://amzn.to/3p1N5i8 • Tube Amp Bluetooth 5.0 160W+160W w/SUB Pre-Out: https://amzn.to/3B9RF2v • Deadbolt Gold Plated Banana Plugs • -12-Pairs: https://amzn.to/3EY0DTa • -5-Pairs: https://amzn.to/3sa5ixO • Spade Connectors: https://amzn.to/3Owwe2g • PROTECTIVE GEAR: • -Face Masks: https://amzn.to/3D0zCiW • -Safety Goggles: https://amzn.to/3fZQfNq • -Ear Muffs: https://amzn.to/3QOBMrq • -Shop Gloves: https://amzn.to/3aGzAgV • Video Index: • 0:20 Final Product Suspended on Wall • 1:10 Foam Board • 1:20 Marking and Cutting Rounded Corners • 1:40 Sanding Corners with Palm Sander • 2:03 Hand Sanding Edges and Surface • 2:29 Painting w/Latex paint to match wall • 2:51 Dayton Audio Exciters • 3:07 Selecting and Preparing the Cotter Pins as Mounting Pins • 3:39 Laying Out Mounting Pin Locations • 4:10 Drilling holes for Mounting Pins • 5:02 Injecting Adhesive to Anchor mounting Pins • 5:38 Attaching Exciter • 5:53 Selecting Material for Wall Mounts • 6:26 Tying the Hanging Loop • 6:45 Tying Lower Suspension Line • 7:21 Mounts on The wall • 7:27 Bending the upper Mounting Pins • 7:48 Hanging the Panel • 8:16 Checking Panel Wall Spacing after bending Mounting Pin • 8:32 Sound Comparison • Musical Thanks to: Doug Maxwell • Song Title: Bellissimo • Genre: Classical • Mood: Dramatic • Video Link: • Видеоклип • NOTE-1 BELOW: This video shows how this mounting system works for panels with 2/5- 3/5 mounted exciters panels with centered exciters. For best results, single speaker channels should have exciters mounted at the 2/5 - 3/5 location for each speaker (4:09). Dual speaker channels should have one speaker with a 2/5 - 3/5 mounted exciter and the second speaker on that same channel with a centered Exciter (4:07). Thanks to Tech Ingredients for The World's Best Speakers. • NOTE-2 BELOW: Like any sound emitter, these transmit quite different at surface contact than with more distance from surface. I noticed significant variations from 1 to 2.5 inches from wall surface to back of DML panel. Changes certainly continue at greater distance, but then we're no longer talking about wall mounting. I designed this wall mount system to save floor space because I wasn't interested in displaying the mounts or the exciters (backs of DML panels). But you do need some distance from a surface. • Small changes make big differences near the surface. Against the wall had the highest coloration. A foot from the wall, not so much. My experience was that at closest (back of exciter 1/8 from touching wall surface) your ears can locate the exciter position on the panel from the front surface without seeing it. Individual preferences will vary, but I was happy with the back of the exciter about one inch from the wall surface. That puts the back surface of the panel 1.5 to 2-inches from the wall surface. • → Become a ScubaMoto Subscriber - https://goo.gl/iAwSQc • → If this video helped, please give a thumbs up and subscribe for future videos • → As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you.
