How low do does a subwoofer really need to go?

DIY goes a long ways between 2 commercial subs vs doing your own with intelligent amp/box/driver choice

I'm still learning and I got no shame in knowing I'm not there yet but someday when you guys have the time to walk me through it when I'm ready I would like to learn how to build my own. From what I've learned you can't beat it for the value for performance.

You should seek help for that mental illness.

That is not a mental illness! It shows great character! Lol

What? This is trickle down theory that actually works. When I get around to building the next sub, it will allow the dual 15" to move to another room....but then I am a bassoholic audioholic.

Building monkey coffins? I can’t get over that guy who posted that some speakers look like monkey coffins. LOL

That was an old audio retail industry term from the 70s. The late Peter Aczel prolonged its life in the 1990s by using it regularly in his magazine "The Audio Critic".

Thanks. I ordered a few. I’ll share my thoughts in the next week or so.

I got a few of these but haven’t had much time to listen since my GF is home sick this week but will get them going next week.

I did go through a bunch of pipe organ tracks on Mussorgsky Pictures at an Expedition and there are lots of low sub notes. Really enjoying that one and need to give it a thorough listen.
