    Parts Express 250w Subwoofer Plate Amplifier "300-794". Rare.

    Originally sold for ~$130 from parts express. I have used this with my Adire Tempest 15" custom sub until I upgraded to a Rythmik 350w amp. This amp puts out 270+ watts into a 4 ohm load. Made more than enough power to push my tempest. Asking $100 shipped OBO. Pictures on request. Thanks.

A pair of Athena As-p300 8" 100 watt sub-woofers. This is a great almost full-range system. I bought the Onix...

    Converting sealed Tempest to ported

    I have a 230L sealed tempest. I want to convert this to ported, similar to the adire alignment. However, I need to know how to approach this. First question is, is the 230L LowQ model volume before or after driver displacement? I also have the amp built into the side, so i'm guessing that will...

    300-794 amp mod

    I have this amp from PE, it has no bass boost, and the rumble filter is at 19hz. Is there anyway I can lower this to 14hz without enabling any boost? In the manual it only shows the 14hz rumble filter enabled with 1db of boost at around 20-24hz.

    Questions regarding crossover/biamp stuff

    k here goes... I have my main speakers biamped by having one amp for each speaker vertically biamped. And now that I have the mains crossed over at 80hz, will it only send signals above 80hz to the outboard amps, therefore releaving stress on the amps because they don't have to play the bass...

    1014tx and video switching

    I noticed that when I have svideo out fromt he receiver to the tv, and then using my dvd player with composite, i get some fuzzy lines, does this upconvert the signal from 200 lines to 400, or does it just allow me to view the signal in only composite form, and will i notice a difference if i...

    230L sealed tempest

    I have a seald version of this sub , it is the Adire .577 alignment. Now i want to port this, but i don't know if i can fit flares in there because the design is different than the vented designs. Will it be ok if i go with straight pipes and how big would the ports have to be?

    BFD vs. 1014tx

    Will the MCACC/EQ adjustments on the VSX-1014tx be enough to do what the Behringer feedback destroyer does as far as EQing the sub to the room? and is the bass management good enough to not warrant a purchase of the OUTLAW ICBM??

    biamp vs. monobridge

    I have 2 amplifiers that i am currently vertically bi-amping my main speakers with . They are Audiosource Amp Three's running Mirage M-3si speakers. My question is that will it be better to monobridge them and have 400 watts to each speaker as opposed to the 150 watts supplied to each low and...

    Outlaw ICBM

    Is it possible just to use the ICBM as a 2 channel crossover? I have a prologic Yamaha RX-v870 feeding 2 outboard amps into my Mirage M-3si speakers, and i also have a 230L sealed Tempest that i'm trying to seamlessly blend in. It seems like the M-3si play low enough to where the subwoofer...

    Finished my DIY Tempest, 230L Sealed.

    Hey guys, if it wasn't for you guys, i wouldn't have this monster of a sub. Super clean and accurate, and packs a MIGHTY punch.

I want a low Q sealed design for music, and i want to know what kind of box i should build(from your suggestions), and if i will need more amplifier power. My speakers are down -2db @ 30hz, so i want that really low, hence wanting a...
