(for various reasons I needed to join a mismatched pair of 18v drill and battery, annoyed at how much fun it was)

      Ah, I was seeing it as some kind of project in wait and figured I could get some advice from someone who’s been there. I don’t actually have a speaker system of any sort currently. I just wanted to make one for when I did the dishes or take showers. But I really dislike bass so I figured putting together a little 3 watter or something small would be fun and interesting. I also didn’t realize you could just add a resistor to dampen sound but it makes a lot of sense. I haven’t done anything with electronics in a long time. But I figured no better time than today to pick something back up. Ty either way, and keep on keeping on =)

        I’m not the person you replied to in the first place, I’m sure they have a lot more to say than my simple advice

        The volume of a sound is its amplitude, which correlates to its kinetic energy. Kinetic energy in a sound comes from the electrical energy in the speaker. You can lower electrical energy with a resistor.
