Hello everyone. I'm planning to build a down-firing active sub for my home theater. I have a JBL double coil car sub driver. If I connect the coils in series, the resistance is 4 ohms. Referring to T/S parameters, it looks like a good choice to make a nice sub, but it looks fairly ugly, so I...

I have purchased a Stereo Integrity 15" woofer and a Dayton SA-1000 sub amp to build a MartyCube. I lack the skills to do it myself and have been trying to figure out a time to get to a friends house in Evansville to build one thats downfiring, but it may not work out just due to lots of...

Hi Has anyone used Kicker solobarics for home theater sub in a downfiring configuration. Thanks

Currently, I have an Axiom EP-500- which is a beast of a sub. For my installation, WAF dictated an in-cabinet type installation (I'll post pics if I can figure out how on the iPad app). For movies, it didn't seem to make much of a difference. I still get room shaking low end bass. But it lost...

I will be building a downfiring ported Tempest X2 sub for my brother's bedroom and would appreciate suggestions/help on the design. He has told me that he wants a downfiring sub which looks similar to his Yamaha YST-SW800. He wants the dimensions of the main enclosure to be around...

I'm still struggling to come up with a project that will fit my room. I'm considering building an ottoman bench with the quartet12 kit. The trio12 and APRs would all be downfiring on the bottom of the cabinet. I didn't do the math yet but the box would be somewhere in the 16" X 16" X 36"...

Building my first down firing box. I have a pretty hefty eD 160v.2 that I obtained when eD was clearing them out. I was wondering how best to secure it to the bottom of the box. Just screw it in as I would a front firing application? Mount from inside the box? Sandwich it in somehow? TIA

Hi There are all sorts of rumours concerning different driver configurations and their perceived advantages. There are those that believe that forward firing produce the best impact. The "chest thumpers" if you like. The gorilla type sub. Then there are the downfiring subs which can shake the...

My first DIY project was a Peerless XLS 10/12"PR in a 31L enclosure. Out of ignorance, I mounted the driver and PR on opposite sides. With about 600g of weight on the PR, when things get low and exploding, this puppy does some serious rocking.:doh: I want to rebuild it as an end table, with...
