DIY ceiling corner speakers

    Hi, I'm just after buying a Logitech bluetooth speaker adaptor and I'm going to connect it to a pair of speakers regular hi-fi speakers.

    To save some space the receiver is going in the attic above my bedroom and I was wondering if I could make new speaker boxes that would fit in the corner of the ceiling. I was thinking of making a kind of pyramid shape box and mounting the driver inside this.

    Would changing the speaker box change the audio quality and is there a set of rules I must follow when designing a new box? The only info I can find applies to woofers. Any advice is appreciated!

    Yes, different boxes will change the audio quality, well depending on the original speakers of course! 2 considerations:

    1: Cabinet volume must be maintained.
    2: Front baffle (panel) must be of the same width as the original - as crossover will have been designed with edge diffraction in mind.

    Otherwise... go for it, and remember to make the box airtight (with the exception of the port if there is one).
