    Total Cost for Tempest Sub?

    Hi Zach, Sounds like a fun project. I made a ported SonoTube sub using Adire's 12" Shiva for my 20' x 17' Bonus room. It puts out a lot of bass. Which means a sealed Temptest will be fine for your room. I live in the Raleigh area so let me know if you need any help. Eduardo

    Thanks Mike. Stability was a major concern and I didn't want to use any hardware. Dados make a strong joint. Here's another shot since I painted the back wall. The red wall really brings out the stain. Painted wall

    Can someone recommend a good CD megachanger?

    John, If your player is able to read CD-Text then it should be able to display the Track information. I am using both Nero and Adaptec (V4.x ?). Copying a CD will download the CD information and if burned from MP3's I have to do some editing. When I burn a cd either copying or creating a MP3...
