OK, DIY guys, here's a bizarre question for you:
Can I design and install subwoofer drivers into the front wall and get good results?
I am getting ready to upgrade my system (currently running 2 SVS 20-39's with original drivers), and I am looking at:
1. SVS B4+
2. SVS Ultras (dual)
3. VMPS Larger Subs with all the options (pair)
The front projection wall (where my screen is) has a garage on the other side, so I was thinking tonight I might be able to install drivers into the actual wall and have some kind of box or tube or enclosure behind the wall extending into the garage on the other side.
Has anyone ever done this? Could I hope to get good results? Is this a crappy idea?
My budget is $1500 to $2000 (excluding amplification), though I currently have a Samson S1000. I'd want something that rivals or exceeds performance of the above-mentioned systems in both extension and SPL. This is primarily a movie system but is also used for music (looking for tight and musical as well as authoritative LFE).
Thanks,
John G
