quote: Just to confirm about the eggshell finish, can you see the seams in the edges? What I'm wondering is if you where to use Bondo or anything to smooth them out would it hold up to the pressures and not split revealing the seam? Terry, I used wood filler as "bondo" on all the seams, just...

quote: that looks sweet, what are the external dimension of that and does the whole thing weigh 400 lb? It measures 22"W X 22"D X42"H and weighs ~350 pounds. quote: Did you run some nearfield measurments on it, especially one at a high spl level? Nope, I can't do it because of problems...

Ok guys, here's a quick pic of my newest, dual HE 15 sub. I am still experimenting with placement, so don't be too concerned about the current positioning. I will take whatever time and trouble that is necessary to determine the best response at my primary listening position, and then tame any...

I just got out of work and I see that Mark has already explained my setup, and very precisely, I might add James, I built and owned 2 Tempests and 3 Shivas, all in separate enclosures, so I am quite familiar with what they can and cannot do, at least in my system. Though the Tempest is a...

Terry, I haven't been able to bottom the dual HE 15 yet (or make any other kind of funny noises), but the most I've pushed it with my K2 is to the point where it just starts to clip. Mark Seaton has said that he managed to bottom a single HE 15 (I think that's what he said) with a K2, but so far...

Hehe, Jack, you know, I am on Stryke three. I built 2 of the single driver enclosures, sold one to Buzz and one to another friend, and then built a third double driver enclosure, a variation of the Power 15.6 design. This one's a keeper, so you are right, I'm out

Konrad, I have not owned an SVS subwoofer, but I have owned 3 Shivas and 2 Tempests (and test drove a bunch of commercial entries), so I have a pretty good idea of how subwoofers behave. I tend to drive my system at very high SPL's, and there is no worse feeling in the world than to cringe in...
