you wanna buy or build them?

I don't particularly care- as long as they are cheaper in price- good quality, though, say 50wrms power handling...

you want a set of towers or a full surround? whats your budget for drivers/parts?

Towers - how much would I need for them? I got the bass covered...

The only thing I hate about mine was no auto on and off but I found a way to do so...

I have my receiver turning my monster power bar on and off and that turns the amp on and off so it fixed my problem //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

I have a Kicker comp 8 off 100 watts in 1.0cuft at 28htz.

Am i manly? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/blackeye.gif.66a1670f5aaf7f406e783a63e3387dc5.gif

My old setup was a 15 inch Rockford He in 3.5 cuft sealed, but due to a neighbor problem it is no longer. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Was i manly then?

If you do some searching around you can find some really nice speaker projects using Dayton or comparable drivers...

Check out Zaph..

You,me, docutech.

Nooope, I think my HT sub takes the term manly to a new level. 180lbs of bass sound manly to you? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

But also be careful with Zaph cause the guy is a complete douche and thinks all his designs are God's gift to man. Take what he says as good information, but not definitive fact.

Maybe if you carried it yourself. I like it when people act all macho and tell me mine can't be that heavy. Then I get them to try and pick it up.

ONE of my upstairs mains weighs more than your sub setup.

I win. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Dayton still working out for you?

Me? Oh yea! I am in search of a host for a couple of clips. They are from my digital camera so the files are pretty big.
