  1. DIY Subwoofers - General Discussion
    I have been throwing around the idea of a DIY sub. I chose a fairly midrange sub and amp combo and a really nice guy at parts express helped me design the box. All nearly 10 cu ft of it! :gulp: Is this because of my particular speaker choice. If it helps any, it is a Dayton RSS390HF-4. I would...
  2. DIY Subwoofers - General Discussion
    Hey guys, any WinISD pros that can model a good budget(under $200) 12" driver for a 2 cu. ft. sealed enclosure? I have tried WinISD with the Dayton UM12 but I don't feel confident my numbers are coming out accurate. Was thinking of powering it with an Inuke1000 dsp. Goal is to exceed the...

    I have the chance to pick on of these for 800. Are they good for music?
  4. Home Theater Seating and Accessories
    Hello all, I'm in my initial stages of creating a home theater in a small narrow room. This is my only option so there is no room to increase the size. I intend to have a 70-80 foot screen one foot from one of the walls. I am wondering how much seating I can insert without it being...
  5. Home Theater Design and Construction
    Hello - I am going to build a home theater in a detached room that is limited in space. It was not built for a home theater but I'm determined it to make it one. The question I have is how high the ceiling should be to have optimal sound, of course I know the equipment will have a factor, but...
  6. System Setup and Connection
    Hello all, I am so glad I found this website - everyone here seems to be very knowledgeable, certainly more than myself regarding home theaters. I have always wanted a Home Theater and now have the opportunity to create one in a detached room that is limited in space - it's 7 1/2 ft wide and 14...
  7. Sealed Subwoofer Build Projects
    I have just received a QSC 3602 amp that I am going to pair with a couple of 3.5 cu ft boxes that I am building. What drivers would work well in this box now that I have some decent power to drive them (1100 watts at 4 ohms). The reason the box size is fixed is that I am adding these to two...
  8. Ported Subwoofer Build Projects
    Today I officially started the build phase of this project. If you want to catch up, here's the original thread: http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/diy-subwoofers-general-discussion/66269-stereo-integrity-sub-questions.html This build will take a while, I'll post more as I get stuff...
  9. Ported Subwoofer Build Projects
    So :neener:, so I have a huge space and need a new subwoofer. Apparently 2 Rythmic RV12R would do the trick but that's $1100 open box and they are pretty big. I'm afraid WAF is going to be an issue here. :dontknow: Given the WAF & cost, does anyone have any magical solutions for this large...
  10. Sealed Subwoofer Build Projects
    I'd like a small pair of subs for HT and was wondering how sealed cubes based on the LMS-R would stack up against some of the nicer commercial subs I'm considering. Obviously price is better for DIY (assuming its DIY and not 'DDDDDDDDIY'), but I'm more interested in performance available in a...
  11. DIY Subwoofers - General Discussion
    I pulled the trigger and ordered my parts for my new subwoofer. I am building this box (http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/diy-subwoofers-general-discussion/62786-new-build-help-15-a.html#post559416) after some recommendations from others, and it fits my needs nearly exactly as the OP of...
  12. Ported Subwoofer Build Projects
    After what feels quite a long time and mulling over various options and having finally sold my dali subs I have decided to go down the route of getting two Ascendant Audio Havoc 18" drivers from my UK distributor Blade Ice where I purchased my previous Q18's from. He has kindly quoted me £620...

  14. Sealed Subwoofer Build Projects
    It all started here with my post asking for advice. http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/diy-subwoofers-general-discussion/61744-sealed-ported-my-mini-monitors.html It was all downhill after that! :wave: Regards, Dan
  15. New Member Introductions
    Howdy from Fort Worth. Low-end snob here - got my Grado SR80s for work, just got some (IMHO) really nice Kefs for Christmas, was reading about traps and psychoacoustic software and wound up here!
  16. Ported Subwoofer Build Projects
    Hey Folks, A new living room config and general lifestyle requirements have led me to build a super small sub (pair). My 7 cu. ft. sub and large towers don't fit in the new arrangement. I'm building this pair of subs as "bass bins" and to serve as stands for my Klipsch RB-15 bookshelf speakers...
  17. Home Theater Design and Construction
    Hello, The dimension of my room is 33.6ft length x 14.6ft wide X 10ft height... Is this size ok for home theater rear speakers to hang on rear wall around 33.6ft away from the screen.... or should put partition in the room to decrease the length of room. I want to use following setup for home...
  18. Ported Subwoofer Build Projects
    Hey everybody. Been lurking for a little while now and decided to try a build of my own. I went with an 18"dia sonotube bought from whitecap supply cut to a length that would give me 8.8 cubic ft. Used mdf for the top and bottom cap and for the port I used the parts express 4" flared kit...
  19. IB - Infinite Baffle Subwoofer Build Projects
    I am a finishing a theater and have a space under the stairs that measures out to approx 90 cu ft. Would that be enough room for a small infinite Baffle setup using 12s. Or would I be better off using the space for a ported enclosure.
