Slim, Frameless Bathroom Mirror with a 27" Display

and did you get that:
–> recall off PDS241/271 -
“…how is the sound with the exciters?”
Let me put it this way, the exciter sound better than the sound from the phone.
But you should not promise too much. The bass is quite good but high frequencies, as for the voices go under.
I can only speculate if stronger exciters in conjunction with a stronger amp would help here. The main reason for
the use of the exciter was the ease of installation and the small depth. If the mirror was not as flat as possible
I should have used real speakers with their own acoustic cabinet. -
“…Can you show us, how do you dismantled the foot…”
Sorry but i have no pictures from the dismantling the foot. But is realy easy. All you have to do is remove the back of the palstik from the monitor, which is held with plastic noses. It is best to use a slightly wider spatula or car interior tool. Then you can already see the three screws with which the foot on the monitor screwed. In the end, only the monitor foot has to be screwed on to get the cable out of it.“…What about the temperature…”
I do not know if the monitor temperature will be a problem in the future. If so, ventilation holes could still be drilled in the upper part of the frame.“…apply black foil on the back side…”
No, the black film is there to reflect incident light just as the black monitor does. If I did not do that, I would have a darker reflection in the area of the monitor than in the areas without a monitor. -
damm shit. Without the monitor foot I will probably not be able to complain the monitor.

Thanks! I found some nice speakers with 10W/20W and about 40mm depth so my mirror will be something about 50-60mm depth overall. And I was thinking about exciters as well. But I am afraid of a lot distortion in the mirror itself when you play music at higher levels and standing in front of it. What do you say about that? Is it hard to see or is it like in some cheap cars that you can’t read numberplates in the backmirror because the whole car is shaking and also the glass and mirrors…My speakers: https://www.neuhold-elektronik.at/catshop/product_info.php?cPath=242_253&products_id=6537
I am using an amp HAT and four of those speakers. But I’m missing some deeper frequencies (110…20.000 Hz) you hear that there is a lot missing in playing music. So I thought I will get an exciter with low frequencies ~20-200Hz to get a fuller sound. There are basically TV speakers so they are quite good at higher frequencies.
I really should post my project here ^^

@reaper81
You should ask the service …
I think, that the will deliver the power adapter and you should give them the old one. -
@schlachtkreuzer6
Yes, of course you should! -
there are no visible distortions on the mirrorglas with my exciters. I think if you want a really good audiosound, buy separate ceiling speakers.
…and yes, you should post yout project. We are all excited.

@reaper81 nah… :( no space for ceiling speakers. I will try it with extra exciters 😊 I also thinking of an audio crossover :)
thanks for your thoughts and info again

Looking brilliant 👍 how is the mirror now? Just curious as I have just got my mirror made, it has a aluminium Spray to make it 2-way.
I have asked the question to them regarding what glue to use to stick a frame down they have advised me not to use glue as the chemicals could bubble and look like it’s melting? I really want the frameless look but cautious
