Dear friends please give me a hint …

I need to build a sub-woofer (only a sub-woofer) for my desktop PC.


  • Please send me simple circuit which works with 12V (Low-pass + Power amp for woofer speaker 5’’). No need high quality one.
  • tell me to where should I connect this ? because I need to connect this with existing desktop speakers.

Regards

1. We will not do your homework for you. However, you might want to search for the following - push pull amplifier (class A and class AB), RC low-pass filters, and op-amp feedback.

2. There is usually a green audio out connector on the back of the PC.

I think his issue is that he wants to use it with his existing desktop speakers that are occupying the audio out. I guess that could be achievable by splicing into the connector, Low passing into your amplifier and subwoofer.

Some PCs also have a Sub/Center channel for surround sound speakers. The connector is black or brown. Some sound cards or software then use this channel as a low frequency effects channel, so your sub would work properly without a low pass.

i made a homemade woofer for my tv and computer.

parts old woofer speaker case and speaker.
an amplifer and adaptor from a set of old pc speakers.
a filter cap from a power supply.

on mine i installed the amp knob through where the terminal plate used to be. coneected the filter cap in sieries between one of the speaker leads and the AMPs output. (this helps some but does not filter out all oft the non woofer noise.)

to plug in 2 speakers in 1 jack you A need to splice them together or b go to an electronics store and get a 1-2 port eaphone jack adaptor.
