I have done a quick search and have not found this idea posted. Is it possible to make a seating platform for my couch into a subwoofer? If I where to make a platform 4'X8'X1' that would roughly be 32 ft^3- bracing and porting. Would this work or is it to shallow? I could bump the area under the...

I can't seem to find a definitive answer about what parameters to look for when choosing a subwoofer for an IB system. So far this is forum has the most info I've ever seen on the subject. While expect the results to far from ideal, I would like to try and build an IB system in my car using the...
