new forum member, just finished a diy corner box for fronts and center in a secondary room so now I have the bug
(man, building boxes is a blast!)
In our theater room I'm looking to build a pair of subs. After digging around this site I'm under the impression that there are a bunch of tried and true solutions out there using various easy to find sub woofers and plate amps. (basically looking to borrow a recipe, preferribly a box style vs. a tube)
Theater room is 18ft wide x 26ft deep x 8ft tall, full accoustic tile through the ceiling, thick heavy carpet and window treatments.
I was thinking a pair more for symetry then any other reason.
From a budget perspective I would like to be under $450 for the driver / amp per sub ($900 total for the pair of subs).
If I need less then that spectacular, if i need more then please let me know.
Oh, and I'm currently running a JBL powered 12" sub and its doing a fine job. I would prefer if it was cleaner and will more punch, but in general i'm happy with it.
So, if anyone has a solution that would work for me please point me in that direction.
Any input much appreciated,
Thanks
Jeff
