    I am contemplating building a ported box (7-10 cu. ft.) using the Dayton RSS390HF-4 15" driver. Goal is to run from 20hz-300hz so the box can be used with various Oris horns than can go down to 150hz-250hz. I would really like a LF section that could cover the 20hz-300hz range. Anybody have...

    I'm working on a small home theater and I want to tackle the subs. I've got spouse approval for dual subs if I keep them small, so I'm thinking ~1 cut ft sealed with some DSP. Keeping in mind that for me smaller is better... am I better off with two HO 12's or two Ultimax 10's? I havent settled...

    Really not sure what I need to be looking for. If I was buying a sub for a vehicle I would not even consider a 15. I have considered CT Sounds Bio car audio subs. These are low end subs but still think they are a big upgrade over a $100-$200 prefab sub box setup. 12" is $25 while the 15" is $60...

    Hey guys, wifey says no to a boxed sub in the living room, so I came up with a compromise :D Since my wife is a crazy cat lady, I suggested I make a SISAL SUB (I'd use some parts from an old cat tree because it's hilarious)! Here goes... I'd like to keep it about 45" high, and need to use a...

    I'm planning a build with the Dayton Ultimax 12", and was hoping to get confirmation that my plans look ok. I've attached a WinISD model, using a 170 L (6 cu ft) ported box, tuned to 20 Hz, stuffed (Qa = 5) with a 20 Hz high-pass filter (I'll be using a DSP amp). There is a single port in the...

    I have used the ND65-4 in a few builds and have been pretty impressed with them. Most of the time, I just used them in a sealed enclosure, as I tried to keep the size down. This time, I decided to use a 1" port. Inspiration My friend was having a home warming party and wanted me to bring a...
