I was looking at designing my own 3d printable speakers, but these look fantastic and would fit right in with what I need for my audio setup. Not looking for allot of power just a good design with a tube amp. Missed opportunity.
worth a shot at messaging them here: https://www.behance.net/akemake

I'm not sure why the STL's are super secretive. They were available for free before the website went down.

Actually, there were two versions, one free an the second you have to paid for it. In any case, these files were available to download, under their licence, and it didn't allow to re-distribute it.

I wanted to print a bunch, paying for the design; the designer told me don't do that, please. In any case, to ask anyone who wants it to go directly to the site and download it, then I could print it.

I know the site is not there any more, but I feel I would not be doing the right thing if I distribute the file once I was asked not to do it.

I am sure you can find it if you search the web, or, if you contact the designer directly. Or PM those who has it :-)

Cheers!

Please someone help out a fellow member. :)
I realize that the file should be obtained from the site but it is never up to obtain the file.
The file is free on the site and I see no problems distributing it among our members especially since the site is rarely online.

G-Code Generator: Kisslicer
Printing Accuracy: 0.25mm
Nozzle Diameter: 0.4mm
3D Printer Used: Leapfrog Creatr

Components & Tools One Pair
Driver Units: 4" Full Range Speaker
Nominal Impedance: 4Ω
Nominal Power: 15W
Overall Dimensions: 238 x 264 x 124 [mm]
Printing Dimensions: 224 x 242 x 62 [mm]
Shell Thickness: 6.0mm
Internal Volume: 2.2l

Specifications
Full Range Driver: Tang Band W4-1052SDF (2 off)

Speaker Spikes: SPS35/SC (6 off)
Bolts: M3 x 15mm (8 off)
Adhesive: Water-based dispersion Adhesive
Soldering Gun, Screwdriver, File, Sand Paper

DIY Guidelines
Bond both printed halves precisely together using 2-component adhesive. When cured, clean up the bonding line using sand paper and paint it. All three feet and 4" full range driver can be mounted to the Spirulida speaker straight after that. Please remember to have approximately 20cm of two cables soldered to the driver before fitting it to the shell. Pull the cables through the back centre hole and solder it to the RCA banana connector (keep in mind to double check polarity before doing so). Now, fasten the Speaker to the Spirulida using four M3 bolts.
Enjoy!

And, if you pair them with a good, old, nice bulb-amp, then you got yourself an epic set!
