I am new to the forum and new to the diy of subwoofer building. I just bought a new house and I am in the process of finishing the upstairs bonus room for out theater. The room is 26Lx13Wx8H. I have been looking at the different threads for quite sometime and there is a lot of sub choices to pick from. Sub use will be about 50/50 for music and movies. I will prolly find a pro amp to power the sub like the behringer 2500. I was looking at the following sub from audioque and don't know if it would be good or not to use. I do like my music and movies loud at times, that would be a -10 or -15 on the receiver. What are your thoughts on this driver. I called the company and they said a 6cubic ft box would be required but I do not know.

i forgot to add www.audioque.com is the maker of the sub and dj with the company said the internal volume would need to be around 6cu ft and the box be ported. I am use to more pro audio with that tight bass from the kick etc.

they are selling these for $249 at the moment. Do these sound like capable drivers for the price? I don't know how they compare to any of the others.

i think DJ with audioque is somehow related to ?? at digital designs which makes very nice car subs. if they haven't changed then both subs are made on the same assembly line. Looking at the specs does it look like a capable , descent driver to other like the re or maelstrom x?
