  1. Sealed Subwoofer Build Projects
    In-floor subwoofers - 8x8" drivers each, highest WAF factor, lowest THD I built in-floor sealed subwoofers consisting of 8 x 8" drivers each (Dayton Audio DCS 205-4). Those were the only 8" drivers which I found to fit in the subfloor cavity with a box built around them. Each sub has the cone...

  3. Home Audio Acoustics
    Hey everyone! I apologize if this is not the place for a question of this nature, but here it goes. I recently "finished" my basement; painted concrete walls and floor and also painted the ceiling that has exposed beams with no insulation. It looks decent, but the master bedroom is right...
  4. Sealed Subwoofer Build Projects
    Ok, wanting to build a DIY subwoofer in a small form factor and use a miniDSP to EQ it. I want it to be clean, tight base. Driver needs to be able to play flat to 20hz with eq, output level should be min near 110db or higher. Is this possible with a $500 driver and if so what drivers should I...

    Not really sure where to post this so Mods feel free to move it where it belongs.. I'm curious as to all your experiences when it comes to the WAF of your purchases... I was with my X for 17yrs. High school sweethearts. From the beginning she knew what she was getting into with me and my love...
  6. DIY Subwoofers - General Discussion
    Hey guys, My better half and I have been having some 'lively' discussions lately on our living room setup. (see sig & imagine no screen there for general non-movie setup everyday living). Currently we're running a SVS PB-2000 which is a fantastic sub. Love it! Only thing is, it is a monster...

    Pardon me if this has been covered. I thought the Dual-PB12-NSD's would be the least of my WAF issues with this AV refurb, but was surprised at the ferocity and endurance of the DW's reaction. I will need to be getting a smaller pair, to my dismay. This is a room about 18' x 14' with three...

  9. Home Theater Design and Construction
    I've been tweaking my HT (in the living room setup, no basement!) and am at the point where I really need to consider some acoustical treatments. Do any of you have ideas that have proven to have desireable WAF? I'd like to make some of my own panels, but considering that they're in our main...

  11. DIY Subwoofers - General Discussion
    As I have mentioned in other posts, I embarked on a Spouse friendly Sub woofer DIY project. Pat, my wife agreed that if I could put my sub(s) in a cabinet that did not look like a speaker cabinet, and fit into the decor of our newly remodeled living room I could do whatever I wanted. As we were...
  12. IB - Infinite Baffle Subwoofer Build Projects
    This departs from the high SPL, flat to DC approach that many of you guys are into, but the priorities were different. The point here is that without spending too much, and with concealing the speakers as completely as possible, one can get great results. This started with remodelling a great...

    Guys - I dont have an IB yet, just a "lowly" HSU MKII, but I'm droolling already. Been thinking about how to sell this with the wife (avid Southern Living / Veranda kinda girl.) We have this "thing" in our den that hangs on the wall and is rather artistic. The attached image makes it look more...
