My new sonosub!! (1 Viewer)

[Mark Brewer]

So a couple of weeks ago I asked my wife...
"honey can I build you a new end table?"
she said yes and as I walked away I mumbled "there's going to be a 12" subwoofer on the bottom"
Well it's done and it she actually likes!!!!
I opted for a square top.
It's 28 1/2" high using a 24" dia tube.
I used winlSD and Sonotube construction kit porograms to design it.
I will be testing it this coming week. when the kids are at school. I'll post some of pics soon.
Thanks for all the threads that I have read on this forum concerning Sonotubes. It helped me decided to go DIY.

Does she know that her table will be noisy?

Those end tables can sure make nice subwoofer enclosures. Here is my "end table", it's the one with a 15" aluminum cone driver http://www.surfnetusa.com/sho/BassPix/3-6.JPG

Hey Mark,
I'm doing the exact same thing- same dimensions, same rouse with wife. Except I never considered making teh top square. Interesting idea. I just finished cutting my round endcap, but may reconsider and steal your idea. Anxiously awaiting pic of how it looks.

 

[Mark Brewer]

The square top looks very good. On top I have 3/4 inch round MDF the 24" square 3/4" mdf then the real kicker I have 4 1/2" thick 12" x 12" pieces of marble looks sharp. I still have to put some trim around the top.
Actually I am encouraging drinks to go on top. plastic only, that way we don't have to get the blender out
How do I paste a picture within my message. I don't have a web page ready.

I'm not positive about this, but I don't think you can post the pic, only a pointer to a web space where the pic is stored. If you E-mail me a JPG or 2, I'll put it on my web space and post a pointer to it in this thread.

Congrats! And welcome to the Sonosub Club! Having a sub as close as a normal end table would be situated in my living room would be just too much BASSSSS! It's an enviable position to be in.

Julian: It's a driver made by TC Sounds as OEM prototype for a speaker manufacturer.
Brian: sorry for the picture, I edited the message as you suggested.

Pat!
I can't believe YOU of all people would ever use the phrase "too much bass!" Are you feeling OK?

[Patrick Sun]

It's more of a proximity thing. Having a sub that close is just not something I'd enjoy.
Okay, I confess, I just would rather not have to wear "Depends" when I'm enjoying what a Sunosub would have to offer in close proximity. There, I have shared my greatest fear in HT.
