Re: Houston DIY Home Theater Group?


NEW IDEA FOR THE HOUSTON HT DIY CLUB


SDX15 SUBWOOFER BUILD-OFF !!!
Prize: free SDX15 driver





Nathan at Funky Waves will consider sponsoring a free sub driver, if enough guys want to participate. It would go something like this...


Each participant would build a cabinet or sonosub of their own design to meet their music / HT needs based on modeling and dimensions of this driver. In a couple months, we would take turns bolting the same SDX15 into each of the cabinets or tubes to run SPL, FR curves on a standard amp (probably EP2500) in each HT (limited to Houston-area participants for driver sharing purposes). Each participant would have to post a build thread describing their needs, goals, design, and an in house eval. By Home Theater Shack voting, the winner would get the free SDX15.


Minimal individual monitary investment, cool competition among mostly newbie builders, awesome prize, and a great club-building event!! We'd probably end up cooperating with each other on the various builds more than competing.


Post your interest or questions below.
