sonosub

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...

hey all, Im looking at building my frist DIY Sub, a sonosub to complement my pc13ultra to even out the bass response in my room. While I was at it I was thinking of doing something bigger. my initial plan was to go: h 47 x w 20 dual 3.5 inch ports with a 1 inch flared exit 22 inches in length...

I don't know why sonosubs aren't very popular, I'm considering one because it seems to be cheaper, lighter, easier to build than an equivalent box sub. Am I missing something? I'm looking for a simple DIY build since I'm new to the whole thing. Was going to get the Parts Express UM18 bundle...

I've noticed a plethora of related threads so I apologize in advance if I should have tagged onto one of those. That said....I need some help. I have two pieces of 20" x 67" sonotube cut. I was originally going to use Dayton rss390hf's in them (which I already have) but found the great deal on...

Hello all. Here's what I'm working with. room in basement 18' x 22' concrete foundation on 3 sides. 8' ceilings. 2 x SI 18" D4 Inuke 6000 DSP Onkyo 818 Subs will sit behind false wall. I have bought a 24" 12 foot soon and cut in in half. Here's where my dilemma lies. I know nothing...

It's amazing the differences a sub crawl can make. I recently built a sonosub, and it sounded 'off' where it was, I left it for awhile, assuming I was just nuts. Today I went 'nuts' and rearranged my entire home theater to find out the best place to stick the monster... Here's what I found...

Not sure how to upload sonosub details :ponder:

Built the Statement Monitors and love them and now I am going to build a sub. I only have room for one and it will be put in the corner behind my tv. I am planning on going with the SI 18 HT in a sonotube for ease of the build, moving it, and the enclosure needs to be tall. I'm a noob when it...

Ok, so I have decided. My first DIY sub is going to be a SONOSUB! Woot! I found a piece of 24" sonotube approximately 12' long. As much as I'd love a 12 foot sub, I doubt it would fit anywhere. I am planning on using an IXL-18mk2 with a 6" or 4" port, debating on making the sub anywhere...

TC Sounds Sonosub Build I am starting a new build which should provide with more extension below 25Hz. The driver choosed is the tc sounds LMS-R 15. I want to thank Mike for helping me with the modeling. Decided to go with 230L net volume, Ftune is 19,76 Hz which comes from two 4" serially...

Hi all First post but been lurking for a while... I am planning a sonosub style sub but you cant get this in the uk so have purchased a 1150mm long & 630 dia steel duct tube and a Fi Q18 driver. On Sonosub this models to 312 litres with 14.7 Hz tune using 150mm port 700mm long (apologies to...

Hi everyone, So I am new to the world of designing and building subs. Being crazy, I decided to dive in with both feet and order a Mach 5 IXL 18.2.2 woofer from infrasonic.com.au I have seen a couple of build threads on Sonosub enclosures and thought that they brilliant. So I got the software...

Hi John:) Would you recommemend the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 2 In/2 Out USB Recording Audio Interface for my first steps using REW with the eventual aim of building a 600 litre sonosub with Aurasound NSF18 driver please? I am basing my selection purely on Amazon customer reviews some of which can...

For the end caps and for making flares, what router bits should I buy ? I need one to cut out the caps, and I need one to round the edges of the caps for finishing. I also need a larger one for the port flairs. Newfie Speed and Sport has several bits and sets...

I am working on modeling some subs with the intent of building a 24" Sonotube LLT with a 15" driver. I have looked at Dayton, Bravox (on buyout right now at Parts-Express.com), Soundsplinter, etc. I think I have settled on the Dayton Ultimax UM15-22, about 300L volume and a tune around 18hz. At...

Hello everyone, new here to the forum but spent about 3 hours last night looking through posts and amazed at the projects and help everyone provides. I have been waiting for a cheap SVS cyl. sub to popup on craigslist or ebay for years. Just stumbled on the DIY Sonos and wish I would have seen...

I just bought myself an Infinity Reference 1260w 12-Inch to use with my bash 500 plate amp. I originally bought it to use as a replacement sub in a 12in optimus box, however I decided the optimus enclosure is sub par. I want to build a proper enclosure for it, but I am not sure where to start...

i am in the process of hopefully finishing up my build soon...and i could really use some direction on the following questions....some of these are trivial i am sure...but...first build...and nervous to pull the trigger on some of these questions... - i have primed and painted the top endcap...
