HOW TO – Make a Low-cost spherical speaker array (from IKEA salad bowls)

Mzed writes –

Acoustic instruments radiate sound in a wonderfully complex, 360 degree fashion, while conventional loudspeakers radiate in a much more boring, spotlight of sound. You could spend a ton of money on fancy products:

Hemisphere from Electrotap
Experimental Meyer Array

or you could follow these instructions to build a cheap array out of IKEA salad bowls and surplus automotive speakers.

Special thanks and apologies to Dan Truman and the researchers at CNMAT, who’s scientific work directly inspired this project.
