Three hardwood boxes picked up for £4:50 from a charity shop, these will be two speakers and an amplifier for the speakers for my Steampunk PC, they will be getting sanded back to bare wood then given a coat or two of mahogany wood stain.
Looking into either installing an existing set of PC speakers or possibly building something with a bit better sound quality.
These were an eBay purchase, a set of two brass goblets which are engraved on the outsides, they immediately reminded me of brass gramophone horns, they will have their bases removed and be installed as none functional horn speakers to the tops of the speaker boxes.
The amplifier box will be getting a cut out to accept the decibel meter which I picked up at the Newark Antiques Fair last year, I am undecided as yet if
to try to wire this up to one of the channels of the amplifier so the needle sweeps in time to the music. I am currently on the look out for a suitably steamy looking volume control knob.
