Re: Will subwoofer affect TV (negatively)


That's a decent sized room (5200 cubic foot) for one sub! Are you sure you don't have a good corner somewhere to put something big?

My knee-jerk reaction is to say that to fill that space you will need a conventionally ported (not EBS) 15" sub that is not tuned super low (to keep efficiency up). Two subs would be better. A 15" sub takes up space but not tuning low may cut down on the volume a bit.

Give us some more constraints other then volume. What budget are you working with? Is this for movies or music? Can you do a tall sub with a small footprint (like a sonosub)?
