Lets start with the room dimensions. If clean bass is what you want, you will want to start off using dimensions of the room to find out what the room will want to peak at, and shape of room, rectangle, square, triangle, whatever

Home audio bass likes to start off with very low tuning. 20hz tuning on home audio sub boxes is common, and maybe on front stage to have some mid bass that will catch back up around 45-50hz or so, if your doing tower speakers as well

I have been lagging, but I have been thinking of doing a 18" I have and a 20hz transmission line

I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

DUDE PHUCKING SICK ASS DRAWING.lol

hey does it even matter waht reciever you use if your going with that plate amp and teh subs?

Edited by Beanz
That's why they don't deliver.

Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait.

You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start :D

I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

I could go on forever with this topic, but a few observations... the sub box should be as heavy as hell so as not to resonate or move, it should sound transparent, placed in a corner, and personal taste can dictate that though most people do it up front for when they listen to 2 channel. as in a large room in 2 channel the sub will be localized if placed in the rear, with incorrect levels and crossover.

but the whole thing is moot if you are using a car audio setup with no ac to dc power supply. and by the time you buy a good one (astron) you might as well buy everything already done to begin with... so it seems like a waste of time even posting... and no, the battery charger to the battery isn't going to cut it either :rolleyes:

Tune low. Below 30 low. Or get creative with the box, considering how much space you have in a house you may as well do some sort of phase-box like a horn or T-line.
