Building Blutooth Speaker with Raspberry

Hardware Hub Other Hardware
1

Hi Guys,

my old CD-Player died, seems like the chip or the board died. So I took the thing apart and took the two drivers(4 Ohm, 8 Watt). Since I have an unused Rasberry Pi laying around I was wondering if I could use it and the drivers to build a Bluetooth Speaker.
I did some Reseach but all I found was sites that showed tutorial how to build small drivers or how to assemble a speaker kit.
I am not trying to build any fancy speakers so I don't think I need a crossover, but I'd don't now how to correctly power the drivers and connect them to the raspberry pi.

Do any of you guys have an experience or good recommendations for sites that can explain what parts I need and how I need to go about this.

Regards
Felix

I wouldn't use a raspberry pi to make Bluetooth speakers.

I think I know what you are asking for but I'm not quite sure. Let me know if this answered any questions you might have. There is everything you need in the description of the video. Even the parts list.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the video, I found an amp that is able to deliver the right amount of power. But it doesn't feature Bluetooth.

I am still going to use the pi to build this so I am able to do more stuff than just connect a device via Bluetooth, this makes it more flexible, if I decide to add stuff to it.

That sounds great to. I wish you the best of luck.
