Hi i've been lurking on this website for quite some time now
I've been thinking about building a DIY Subwoofer, but have no idea where to begin, I currently have a Velodyne DPS-12 it's alright but it doesn't put out nearly enough
My room is 12' wide 21' deep and 8' tall
i'm using a Yamaha HTR-6090 reciever, i'm going to be bulding the Statement speakers for my home theatre, but i want a sub that will kick too. Mind you I'm in Canada and it's tough to find some stuff up here.
I'm looking for a simple port design or a solid sealed design. I've been looking at some drivers off of Partsexpress but don't know what else i'd need. I've read some reviews that the Titanic Kits are ok but could be better aka ported. hence why i want to make my own box, i liked the Infinity Kappa design i found on here but i don't exactly understand how they hook up the EP2500? or how to use the WinISD program properly (total noob) or how to design a box/tune it?
oh as for a budget i'm not too sure yet i don't want to break the bank, but i'm willing to spend a decent amount of money say $1000. and as for size of the driver i'm open to ideas 12, 15, 18? i mostly watch blu-rays (50%) and play video games (45%)very little music (5%)
Please any input would be great
