OK the credit card is burned and I am committed with the woofer I am using in my IB HT sub. I have toyed around with using many different woofers and in the end PRICE was the motivator lol. The specs of the woofer are a bit off from optimum in the fs department and XMAX, but QTS and QMS are right on spot for a nice IB canidate. I eliminated XMAX being an issue by buying 8 of them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

8 15" drivers ought to give me the output necessary to bring the house down //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif They will be powered by my Dayton 1000 watt plate amp. I will detail the install in this thread when they come in and I begin. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Hurrs the woofer I am taking. At $70 a pop I just don't see how this could be wrong, since at this price I can easily afford 8 to move some air.

I will be installing them in the attic and use a manifold through the ceiling similiar to this design. The only difference will be mine have 4 more drivers //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

The first of many pictures to come. This is delivery day. Look at all those pretty woofs in a row. Looks intimidating already //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

OK, here comes the head scratchin. I know I already said I was going to do a manifold design like exampled above, but I also have room to do a line array of them behind the plasma screen. I am not sure what acoustically is the safer bet. Which has the best chance of not having "dead spots" from cancellation issues?

Here is my room.

How were you planning on mounting them in the manifold? If you do the line pattern are you planning on mounting them behind or above the TV?
If manifold there is 2 ways. One would be like hot gluing 2 of these together, one on top of the other blowing through the ceiling.

Or making a long manifold with 2 rows of 4, basically like 2 4 driver line arrays in the manifold.

Or just mount the woofs above the TV in an 8 driver line array upside down.
