    yeah. ran into a problem which will require me rebuilding the box. the plate I bought for the binding posts has them too close together. when the bass hits pretty hard, a nice arc was produced between them :mad:

    so anyway, I have a nice hole in the back that I can't really do anything with. will pick up some more MDF and probably build a big ported box tuned to 15hz or so, or a sonotube if I can find the forms.

    I only check in here once in a blue moon... sorry.

    Impossible to say what your filters will be. Not only is it room dependent, it is subwoofer location and primary listening location dependent. Simple, right? LOL. If you have a RatShack SPL meter and get the REW working you can figure it out pretty easy. The results are pretty outstanding.

    Once you get setup you can email me xmotomark73x@yahoo.com (remove the x's) and I will be happy to help troubleshoot.

    I have a new baby 21 days old yesterday so no roadtrips but can probably help you out.

    no I'm probably going back to college, so the future of the house is up in the air. didn't feel like completing it if I was just going to turn around and sell it

    that being said, anyone want to buy/rent a house in kennesaw?

    Nothing. Still have it.

    A theater is cool but going back to school is much more important to me.
