    1st speaker project - was: New Idea For a Small Business, at age 15! (Moved)

    OK, apparently you do not listen very well to what others suggest. Sounds like you have already made up your mind on most things and you want someone else to approve what you're wanting to do. Either, listen to what everyone tells you, or quit posting the same stuff and move on. This post has...

    Placing you sub next to or close to your TV is not always the best location for optimum output anyway. There are several articles on the web describing placement of a sub, "crawling" for bass is probably the best way to properly locate it. I built my own sub using the 15" dayton Titanic sub and...

I just ended up building my own, well, using someone elses plans, and it turned out great. So good in fact, now the sound seems to...

    Speaker settings

    Is setting all your speakers (fronts, center and rears) to small the best way to go, if you have a good sub, of course? I just installed some very good 8" in walls for my front mains, built my own center channel, using dual 61/2" drivers and an 1-1/8" tweeter,( D'Appolito style) and built my...

    I think your ambition is great, but I do not think you have put much "real" thought into this. I just built my own center channel speaker, and powered sub. They turned out great but that is because I just "mocked" someone else's plans I found on various websites. There really is more to...
