Get the Ellipse tool (U) and draw an ellipse of size 4.6 in by 4.6 in. Fill this shape with color #1A1A1A. Rasterize this layer.
Add Noise with these settings. Amount 4%, Distribution-Uniform and tick Monochromatic. New texture will be looking like mine below.
On this sphere, we will add Drop Shadow and Inner Shadow Layer Styles. Observe the settings and get them as similar as I did.

In this step, we will create a new texture for the fourth circle. Create Square shape with size 5.5 in by 5.5 in and fill it with color #8E929B.
Highlight this shape by Select+CTRL (Windows) or Select+CMD (Mac) the shape. Go to Filter Menu > Texture > Rough Pastels. You will get a texture something like this.

We got a new texture (with very thin circles which are not so visible). Now cut an area from this texture equal to the fourth circle that we created earlier. Get the fourth circle on the middle of this square layer. Ctrl-click on circular shape and go to square shape layer > Right-click > Layer via Copy, so that you get the smallest circle with our new texture.

you want to it to shine the most. Caution: Before using Dodge and Burn tool, make a backup of the applicable layer so that you can restore it whenever desired.
We will give shine effect to fourth circle with the help of both Dodge and Burn tool. Firstly, select your Burn tool and set the Range to Shadow and Exposure to 5%. Apply Burn tool onto the two quarters of circle in opposite direction.

Lets give the shine effect to third circle as well. This part will act like a rubber part of the bass. Get these settings on your Dodge tool. Set Range to Highlights and Exposure to 3%. Dodge this circles visible part in the middle and get it like this.

The big bass part is done, lets fix some bolts on it. On a new 200 x 200 pixels canvas copy the smallest shiny 3D circle that is the fifth circle. Now apply Burn tool on the boundary part of this sphere with these settings. Set Range to Shadow and Exposure to 5%. After that go to Image > Image Size and resize this image to 40 x 40 pixels.

Copy this bolt to your original canvas, make 8 copies of them and fix them like this.
Get your Dodge tool (O) with Range to Highlights and Exposure to 3%. Dodge the left and right side of this circles visible part and get it like this.

Since we already have created the big bass so we will use the smaller version of it to act as a small bass. Make copy of the bigger bass in new canvas 500 by 500 pixels and resize your canvas to 200 by 200 pixels.

Lets now design the Woofer body on which we will assemble the big and small bass. On the same canvas, select rounded rectangle tool, set radius 20pi and draw a big rounded rectangle with size 6.25 in by 9.6 in.

Select+CTRL this shape, go to Modify > Select > Contract by 10 pixels. Create a new layer and fill this selected shape with color #323433. To make the Woofer texture more realistic, we will add noise to this layer.

Mark says: October 14, 2009 at 5:13 am And in creating the texture for the 4th ellipse, probably should let beginners know they will need to rasterize the layer before they can apply the filter. Also, in Photoshop CS3, the rough pastels filter isnt under Texture in the filters, but rather under Artistic. Cant speak for other versions. Reply

Johnson Koh says: October 14, 2009 at 5:50 pm Thanks Mark for the pointers. Will be adding the amendments into the tutorial.
Mark says: October 14, 2009 at 4:29 am The step where you add the third ellipse the color is wrong. #1a1a1a is darker, and the one shown is lighter than the first two. Reply
