Rutgar, I just put 2 layers of drywall on the studs. I really REALLY wish I had just done a little research on resilient channels. I knew they were available but just never thought I would need them. Its just another thing I've learned for "next time". There is no way I would strip off 1 layer...

Rutgar, unfortunately I don't have any options as far as placement goes (with the exception of the sub). Also, your room has something extremely significant that mine does not.......openings. I believe if I had designed mine that way, which wasn't possible anyway, I wouldn't have these...

Kevin, If I had a nickel for everytime I checked the connections and phase.....bla bla. That would be so sweet to find a mistake in the wiring, though. The only thing wrong was the bass driver I discussed earlier. Yes, I did try running a single sub. Rutgar, I have the RS test meter, but I...

Uh oh, CAN'T WE JUST ALL GET ALONG!:D Look, all I know is that an EQ isn't the answer in this situation. I figured that out before Ethan and Chris even posted, but it was nice to get a few more opinions. To me anyway, it seems like common sense. If there is nothing there to begin with, due...

Very carefully;) Try using a Dremel or similar tool. Also at Home Depot there are usually 2 different kinds of blank plates . The standard cheap(breaks before you get it home)$1 version and the super deluxe(unbreakable)$2 version. Try the unbreakable version as it will be less brittle. Use a NEW...

thanks, Jason,....enough screws?..I think so! I might weld 1/2" plate steel on the box also. Just heavy enough to crack a 6" concrete slab floor.:D I am using a QSC rmx2450 to power them.

Thanks, Ethan. I have to apologise though. My intention wasn't to take any biz away from your company. I didn't even see your post till I was done with my last one. But, I did get the idea of using rigid fiberglass from your site(I think). There was something about not being able to supply...

Rutgar, I tried placing the subs in opposite corners but it sounded bad. There was a little more bass but it was very muddy and very directional. However, what I did was turn off BOTH subs and my 2nd set of mains and just played the Cornwalls. I figured I should start from a beginning point...

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking for. You have a 2 space box that you need a 2 space speaker terminal plate for? If so, could you buy a 2 space blank plate and carefully drill holes in it and install your speaker terminals. If you need the terminals go to Radio Shack and buy the 'gold...

chello?

Thanks,Wayne. I do not have the power to post pics but soon I will. I believe the box is very sturdy. I used 1 1/2 sheets of 3/4" MDF, lots of pine bracing, 2 tubes of Liquid Nails and approx 400 drywall screws. This box(w/drivers) has to weigh 200lbs EASY! I used 5lbs of polyfill inside but...

Haven't heard anyone mention Klipsch yet. It sounds like you're looking for a high end big $ speaker. Listen to a pair of K-horns! or any other larger old Klipsch models. They wont be cheap(or space friendly)but they are great! Think they have too much honk?(after all they are horns)just EQ the...

Klipsch KSW15 and a DIY ported dual 15" Titanic box.

I have rope lighting in my room and I had to make my molding out of primed pine and 2x4's. The diagram John G "painted" is EXACTLY what I did. Were you spying on me John?;) Anyway my rope lights are at the top of the wall where my ceiling slant starts(cathedral ceiling). Not only does it...

Gee,thanks Wayne!:frowning: thats real encouraging news! From what I understand the cancellation is caused by reflecting waves off the surfaces in the room interacting with each other thus destroying themselves. In other words the waves have nowhere to go. Bass traps, from what I understand...

I am using 2 QSC rmx1450's(260Wx2) for my mains and a QSC rmx2450(650Wx2)for my subs. As others have posted the cooling fans are a little loud but I have mine in a custom rack with a glass door on it. To me it is plenty quiet but others like to have an absolutely dead quiet setup. Just my $.02

there are pics below

I have tried every position(except opposite corners)with the subs with the same outcome. Even w/o the subs on,my mains have very very little bass in the listening position. They are Klipsch Cornwall II's which are VERY good at producing bass. In my last room which was only 13x15 they,for the...

I have 2 subs w/3 15" drivers total. One Klipsch KSW15 and a DIY dual 15" Titanic ported box.I am in the process of building a web page @yahoo so I'll be able to post pix of my rack and speakers. I figured I could just attach an image like an e-mail to post pix.....sorry. It'll be done in a...

Hello everyone here are a few pics of my new sub box. It is a dual 15" Titanic ported design built according to the specs on the PE website with a few port deviations(port#'s and dimensions)OK'd by the tech line using the same program(BassBox6 Pro). I also used winISD and came up with similar...

Hey folks, I'm just about done with the construction my new theater/listening room and I think I've created a monster. Like a typical guy I set up the electronics first. What I have now is a large room with virtually zero bass at the listening position. Of course at the corners and along...
