In the last few weeks I've been working through my inventory of parts trying to complete some of my projects. Last year when the TCP115-4 drivers where out of stock, I purchased an open box MKSX4 passive sub, which utilizes four TCP115-4 drivers, for just a few dollars more that the drivers would have set me back. I also ordered the tweeters and crossover components needed for the Dayton 4's. I promptly removed the drivers from the sub, but the project came to a halt. I recently picked up some Ikea Variera 9-1/2" bamboo boxes and remembered I already had some 3/8" think bamboo cutting boards on hand. This made for a quick build of Duane's design and the angled baffle should work great for a desk. I had some JBL Loft 30s collecting dusk and found they also used a 4" woofer with the same mounting hole pattern. Unfortunately they use a truncated frame so I had to do a bit of cabinet modification. I used the opportunity to add a horizontal brace as well. The original Loft 30 tweeter has an interesting integrated mounting flange that I was able to replicate and 3D print for the ND16. The Loft cabinet is tuned very high and I was able to print a port for the TCP115-4 that simply press fit into the existing one.
Thanks Duane for such a simple and inexpensive design that sounds great!
