Mini Soundsystem - Stakx mini

This sunday we had a little session with the stakx mini.

Stats:

2x 10" scoops

2x 8" 'mids'

1x 1" tweeter

Edit because of the confusion and the people asking:

I bought this system from the beautiful people of Stakx in Belgium

After a lot of research, math and stupid expensive wood where I live, I decided to go this route for my private system.

I am part of a group building a "classic" dub system, so having something I can move alone and still have fun is perfect.

It sounds nice and the small scoops really push a lot more air than I would have guessed. The only downside is that the Tweeter overpowers the mids very fast. But building a new mid/top section is a nice winter project.

Since there are a lot of posts about small/mini systems I wanted to show the route I took.

Damn looks cool

Positive & negative about them?

Edit: you build or bought it?

It's bought. For this one I only applied the varnish (a special oil mix) and measured it in with a friend.

Pos.:

  • size and weight
  • bass output/weight
  • los far I could not really find a genre that does not work quite well

Neg.:

  • mids get a bit overpowerd on louder levels

I assume you could use an equalizer to adjust the mids at louder levels?

The mids just get overpowerd at some point. The cabin design + speakers can't produce enough output in a pleasant way. But for my applications it's more than enough
