I would like to build a dyi Sub and I need some advice on how to get started/which sub and/or kit to get. I guess I will list some specifications and you guy can help me out from there.
1. I am going to use a 250 plate amp from parts express
2. I have all necessary wood tools and a very knowledgable wood worker
3. I want low output since I am very into HT
4. I don't want it to be crazy expensive but it can be moderatly so...($400-500 but not like $1000)
5. I will probably use mdf unless you all suggest some other material.
6. I would rather build a sub that doesn't require internal bracing a.k.a. I would like to keep it simple.
So those are some things that I think will help you all in helping me decide. I am doing this because as of right now I don't have a sub. I don't have a ton of money to spend on a sub and if spending $400 will yield $1G-$1.5G results as so many people have said dyi subs are capable of I really want to try it out. Plus I figure it would be a cool hobby to get into.
