Home audio sub box

[skirch56 10+ year member]

I recently aquired a logitech Z-5300e 5.1 surround sound. The sub in it was blown so i removed the amp and all required wiring. I then proceded to rip apart the box to see how it was designed. Well when i was done the box was pretty much a pile of crap. I was wondering what would be a good box design for two tang bang 6.5's. I plan on using the 100 watts rms that the amp allegedly supplied to the prior sub.

got any info on them? LOL when i search google is says:

Did you mean: gangbang 6.5's

i've already seen specs, 70 watts rms, pretty sure last woofer was 8 ohm, so i figured buy two 4 ohm woofers, and wire them into 8 ohm, i realize they will be underpowerd, but i figure they would still kick the hell out of the stock one.

Heres a project off their website using 4 6.5" TB's off 300Watts. I'd imagine if you cut the volume in half and used a 240W Dayton Amp then you should be golden.

It's called TangBand, and I've got two of those little bastards sitting right next to me. Interestingly, they are finicky to get the most output out of them, so just take your time in the designing.

there's a LOT of knowledgeable people there, and a lot of them have used the tangband 6.5's (they were something of a fotm a while back).

the amp from the logitech sub will not do shit. those amps are like 4 watts RMS and they hid the specs that show it. I bet it will be crappy with that amop. Buy a decent amp from pe

well the only reason i still want to use this amp is because it has the outputs for the other five speakers built into it
