+thinks about equipping his desktop speakers (JBL Control One) with USB-C hubs and your project+

Here is a demo video showing the #USB2Speakon in use.
I'm not sure if the camera microphone captures it accurately, but it's surprisingly loud :D
(I expected around "room volume" at most)

Build log thread coming soon™

A video showing the test setup of the last picture of the previous post, but in action. There is nothing else connected to the speakers other than the USB2Speakon and laptop.

@LeoDJ nice!
Im not surprised, about the volume, with you pluging professional PA speakers 🔊 with ~ >97dB @ 1W/1m

(And definitely pro/highend Speakers)

...unless you choose classic Bose PA speakers (82db/W). 😜

@vampirdaddy @LeoDJ "choose" "PA"

insert standard run-of-the-mill #PCB assembly steps here
Paste, place, reflow the one side.
Solder the other side by hand (because I didn't have a hot-air station at home and was impatient).

#USB2Speakon

Solder paste application under the microscope. I think this is my best application yet.
Placed the components on the top side
Bottom side part soldered by hand. If in doubt use more flux!
