Re: Heylo from Chicagoland!


HI Warren, great to have you here. I built a four cubic foot sub several years ago and used a power supply from a vcr to power a car eq to help balance it out. I used a 70's Pioneer receiver for power. It probably was the ugliest sub ever built. I sold it to a pawn shop where it promptly sold a few days later! I now buy my subs!! Have fun, Dennis

Re: Heylo from Chicagoland!


Thanks folks.

Current project is a pair of big old subs. I'm going with a pair of TC-1000 15s. Once I get past the planning and get this thing going, I'll start a thread here.
