Hey folks,
I'm going to be building a new HT soon, and the room will be pretty large. I want to build some new subs for this room. I have some general sub-realted questions.
Is there any benefit to the following:
A build that has some subs in smaller enclosures, tuned a bit higher, at around 30Hz, and some other boxes that are big, really big, and tuned really low? I'm thinking of going with 4 15s (in the smaller boxes) tuned at 30Hz around the room, and 2 18s (in the big boxes) tuned low up front.
I have lots of room up front, and could redesign for room in the back. Is there a benefit to having different boxes like this, or should I just make 4 big boxes for the 18s, and leave it at that? On the flipside, am I introducing problems with the multiple box / multiple size design?
I think that in my builds I'll be going with SS drivers, so my followups will be about those drivers and related amps...
thanks!
