Im currently running my 15" Dayton DVC sub with an old 100w RMS plate amp I had on my old powered sub. I felt the sub was doing just fine, until I stopped by Soundsaround today. They had a fairly reasonable system set up, with 2 small towers and 1 powered sub. The sub was tiny and was just playing fm-radio but had put out more clean crisp base then by sub puts out at alot lower volume. The price on this sub was 750CND I cant recall the brand.
To say the least I was dissapointed with my diy sub, Im wondering If I go get a 250w RMS + amp I will notice an improvement, or should I redesign my sub altogether? BTW here are the specs on the sub I built:
24" Sonotube X 32" high = 237L when empty
6" wide Port, 21" Long = tunning freq of 19.5
This leaves be with about 210L internally, Correct?
I Have stuffed it to the brim with fibre glass insalation, is this right?
Im thinking that if this is all correct and should work Im going to need a new amp: What would be a good amp for under $325CND?....Damnit guys i need more ears bleeding and currently they arnt even soar:frowning:
Thanks for all your advice and your suggestions in advance,
