Unpowered subwoofers are better than powered ones.

Lol.. Now I am going to have to come back up and check out your new subs again

Im looking forward to the invite to check out the new PB-Ultra.....

It might be a little while until I get the new subs all worked out....
Gots way to many things on my plate... hheehehehe someone always said, if you want to get something done, give it to a busy person !!!!

Im hoping to have my subs built before the new year.....

Got the sunken sub structure built today for my Hot Tub, which comes tomorrow, so I should have the deck finished by next week.

So Babel.... have you done some trial runs with some receivers...?

If you were talking to me Sheep.... My intentions and goals are for cleaner, deep effortless bass... I like my currents subs, but I thought I would try my hand at DIY....

My room is already ruler flat, and I have a SMS-1...... There is no logic to what Im doing... Its just stupid impulsive stuff... but the main reason is because I can... I do recall many times reading this disease we have here has also been called a hobby... and it puts a smile on my face when I see someone in my theater c@p their pants when the bass hits low and hard...

If I didn't have such a large room, the subs I have would probably be enough... but they aren't....

I'll gladly take your old subs off your hand when you're done with them. Free of course.

I have plenty of room so having an external amp doesn't bother me, however the space that my amp is taking up in my rack to keep it out of sight could still be used for other things...

You don't need a plug strip like the one mentioned, most external / pro amps have some sort of on/off mechanism these days, such as a 12v trigger or even signal sensing abilty like a sub amp.

True, but it is user preference
