[QUOTE="ItalynStylion, post: 3242632, member: 568239"] I've built a nice HT sub that I've been playing with for a while now and have been pretty happy with. ONLY knock I have against it is that I feel like the sub (driver) isn't up to the duty some times. So i've been pondering a different driver. My setup is as follows.... -Elemental Designs LT/350 plate amp -Elemental Designs 13oV2 -3 cube 3/4" birch enclosure -Single 4" port tuned to ~24hz My problem is that I feel like the sub bottoms out when I really crank it (like playing rap at the party we just had) I realize that 99% of the time you should build a box to the speaker specs but this enclosure is a piece of furniture now and it would be a shame to let go so I want to keep my same setup and just replace the driver with something else. I can reduce the volume of the box a little by attaching something to the inside of the box to displace air but I would generally like to keep the volume right at what I have now. Basically, I need something to match up to this.... -350RMS @ 4 ohms (NOT 2ohm STABLE) so D2 or single 4 coils only! -3 cubes ported for home theater use and some music -12" -High excursion and wont bottom/freak itself out What type of stuff should I look at?
