Hey guys,
I recently have created my own DIY subwoofer with help from the forums. I ended up following the plans for the infinity kappa's, which seem to be pretty popular within the forums. It seems to preform quite well, but i am wondering if adding an EQ to flatten the curve would benefit the response. I would obviously have to invest in some DB meter's and plot out its curve as per my room, but does an EQ for your subwoofer actually make that much of a difference in terms of reproducing the lows as was meant from recordings?
In particular i was looking at the Behringer Feedback Destroyer Pro DSP 1124P, as its parametric 24 band customizable. Seems to fit the job of a subwoofer better than most others, especially graphic EQ's (as they usually only go to 20Hz, and you cant control the bandwidth or anything else). Will this unit allow me to program in the EQ settings i need throughout the lower freq. rage (ie 15-200hz), and for $100, is this a good deal? Im not a huge HIFI nut by any means, but i do know my way around most things audio, any help from you guys would be great.
If you need to know about the woofer\box itself, i have the 12.1 perfect powered by a 300W plate amp. The enclosure is about 4.05 cu ft, with a nice big slot port out the rear, heavily dampened with rockwool. I found the design for it on this thread actually, and your advice to others seems to be top notch!
