well finished my sonotube for the HT, TC 2000 12" S4, and a behringer ep2500, tube is 36" long, 16" dia.

came out to 3.8 gross, 3.3 net i think, it was tuned to 18-19hz

total height from end to end was 42", covered everything with texture paint then the black paint, have yet to carpet it, but i do have the carpet, i just wanted to use it

built it at the shop with help from a guy, took us forever to finish, work for a few minutes here and there, took it home to finish last parts

dont really have any finished pics of it too much, i have a banana plug terminal on the side of the box, everything is painted black and its stuck in the corner behind the tv out of the way

also bought from scotthulbs a reckhorn B-1, which is a line driver, a SS filter, bass eq, and high pass filter, but i mainly bpught it for the line driver and the Subsonic, very nice unit



and i was tired of my POS center, so i upgraded to a definitive technology pro center 1000, i didnt want a tall center and i needed it gloss black, it has dual 4.5" and a 1" tweets with dual passive radiators, perfect size i wanted, next im upgrading to the matching fronts to go along with it

pic with new center vs old POS center, amazing difference in quality and loudness

whole package with center and the "INSIGNIA'S" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

i really didnt take any pics after i finished besides putting in place, but it has some spots where liquid nails came out on the bottom because it was such a tight fit, so im gonna re paint it some and carpet it and it should look really nice

i like how its out of the way

True, drifting through all the snow was pretty fun though. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

How many of you guys have really nice mains and a shitty htib center? I know I do. Really throws off the system.

x2 on vids. Love those high-roll surrounds.

well i know its better off to get all matching fronts and center, so im gonna work slowly at getting it, but a new center helped drastically

believe it or not, the insignias are actually decent speakers, made by a different company and renamed

they sold them for 199 a set, bestbuy sells for like 99 but you can get them for 50-60 on sale

amd they look dang nice to me

I have no center.

Doesn't matter to me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
