Another trick to make a weak boombox sound like it is a lot more powerful is to add an external soundbox. This can be achieved at zero cost by placing the boombox into any receptacle just larger than its size, a bit taller, and like 20-50 cm deeper than the boombox itself, keeping the player inside still near the opening. Wood furniture works really well for this, and floor level is preferable since it would help further bass frequencies.
- pgt 7y agoThis will create reverb or sonic “smear”, which may not matter for listening purposes, but technically reduces the timing resolution of notes.
- jacquesm 7y agoI don't think anybody is under the impression that any of this is about HiFi.
- pgt 7y agoSure, but I think it’s interesting to point out the trade-off since you can apply the same principle to antenna design.
- jacquesm 7y agoThat's true, this would allow you to build a compromise antenna that works reasonably well over a range of frequencies without being tuned. On a Yagi you could probably achieve that by purposefully varying the distance between the resonators a bit from ideal, correct?
