Title: PSP UMD Door speaker mod
Post by: MarcusN on December 23, 2008, 06:44:20 AM

HI there,
I am currently using some MPS70 speakers to put in one of my psp's umd door. It is work in progress at the moment so it doesn't look that good and yes i am using foam board as i find it easy to work with but i will be using a better material for the final part.

What i have done is used 4 speakers from the MPS-70 ones and took them apart. I then used the foam board to fit the speakers in and hold the magnets together. I am going to connect the 2 pairs of speakers to one amplifier board ( is this ok)
The foam board does stick out a bit due to the size of the actual speakers.

Here are some pics. (sorry for the rubbish qualtity, i had to use my psp camera as my other camera's batteries need charging)
Let me know what you think. And does any one have any idea of what material i could use for the final one?

Depending on the amp it should be fine.

As for the final product, what about using an acrylic sheet?? One the same thickness as the foam.

why don't you just use the umd door? As I understand it, you are replacing it with the foam? And if you use a lm386 you can hook several speakers to it.

i agree with darkshot. but you may want to find a way to center and align the speakers better.
