Hello forum, I am looking to build my second DIY sub, this one will be used in a bedroom system and size (small) will be as important as sound quality.
My last DIY sub was a 260L Sonosub with a 15" SS driver that I am still using in my main system and I am still very happy with its performance. I built that sub several years ago and have since been away from any serious audio related endeavors so my knowledge of all the latest trends and hardware is now limited .
The reason for this build is that I recently purchased some Sonos wireless kit and have the ZP120 zone player in the bedroom powering a small set of Boston acoustic bookshelf speakers but I would like to have some extra bottom to compliment the small speakers.
The build has be relatively small but I have some room to move but the WAF is a restriction I must adhere to somewhat. Having said that I may use the the "beg for forgiveness rather than ask for permission" rule, LOL.
Some things to keep in mind:
1. this sub will be used in a low power 100% music system so I was leaning toward a small sealed 10". The Sonos ZP120 is a 55watt/ch amplifier with an auto detect sub out that has a set X-over of 80hz.
2. Space and WAF is important as well as fit and finish.
3. Budget is under $1000CDN.
4. Room size is 16' x 22'
Thanks, all suggestions welcome.
