3D Printed Speaker Enclosures for 3.5" Full Range Driver

With regard to filament, I the white PLA I used for the speaker swivel above is Hatchbox PLA. I had no warping issues whatsover, which was very refreshing after the warping issues I had with the cheaper filaments I have been trying out. Hatchbox is not cheap, though. On sale on Amazon Prime day it was still over $40 for two 1kg rolls. But, if it avoids warping, it is worth it on these large prints.

Initially I tried using the adaptive pressure advance settings I have been using with the other filaments. Those settings did not work well with the Hatchbox PLA and the print looked like crap. I just disabled pressure advance all together and it has been printing well, though the layer lines aren't as clean as some of the other filaments. It prints at a higher temperature, but I don't know if that is the cause. Nonetheless, not having to deal with warping issues, I can live with the print quality.
