what i dont get with these active speakers is, do they fill the space in the non powered one so that the boxes have the same volume. else there's gotta be a difference in sound between the two.
Pulled a fair few amplifiers apart, very well made even when you compare it to even some big brand gear. As others have said, the glue will also serve as a sealant as any leaks can cause the tuning of the enclosure to change and some holes can even cause noise as air rushes through, great that they actually did that!
Rather than for vibration, I would think all the glue was for sealing the cracks to prevent unintended venting of the enclosure out the back. Likewise, the entire electronics assembly should be sealed to the enclosure. That you could pry it off says there wasn't any glue, but you could always put in some soft, tacky caulk before putting back together and still be able to open it later.
The enclosure skin is officially known as "genuine simulated imitation faux leatherette." 🙂
How do you take the fron't panel off, I have to replace the speakers
"Not un-attractive at all…" Mmmmm, thats a matter of opinion. Personally, I think they look like shit. XD To each their own.
I use a samson mic to record my videos for youtube its fantastic
wtf
sony mdr7606's are also great
I own the resolve 65a nice quality sound and most important afordable.
Nice. But some front speaker covers would have been a nice bonus.
How much do they coast
The glue is actually to seal the cabinet so that pressure (SPL) doesnt leak from anywhere but the port and transducer (the intended places).
Nice music choice!
TDA7265 is terrible piece of… amp
Why to use such shit everywhere…
Those samson headphones look like a copy of the AKG 242
great review!
gotta love the sound check at 4:19!
I honestly can't tell if he's being sarcastic with the "wank-words".
why is the power transformer so large? doesn't it have a switch mode psu?

Great teardown, thumbs up. And I'd like to give this video another 'thumbs up' for Al Yankovic 🙂
Dave , you just crazy about what's called "Crack That open" thing right ? xD

Haha, Dave that U.S. accent was really funny! I'm from the states and that's a southern thing 🙂
@GeeksCreation 20W is sufficient and good quality to boot . 1000W for SPL losers and distortion which doesn't matter or they don't care .
Now, this is a subject that is near to my heart – I design speakers (well…the amps) like this! These sound very good, Dave. Good choice!
@EEVblog Ahh! I want that review!
"wank words" Low brow. Let's keep it kid friendly.
Got to love it "Designed and Engineered in USA,,,,,,,,,, MADE IN CHINA" lol.

thumbs up for the non-blinding blue LED 🙂
