re8 for home audio

Yup.

Either low level (RCA) or high level (speaker wire) outputs would work.

Yep just RCA connecting it to the receiver. NGSM13 has one if you want to hear from somone that owns one already.

Plate amp and an ABC box //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif... or 1/4 wave transmission line.

T-line would be good...unfortunately, doesn't look like mine will be working out, but a T-line for an eight would be very manageable.

so what is a transmission line?

i have a feeling i'm showing my ignorance here...haha

if either of you box guys wants to design a TL, I'll build and test.

 

[JimJ 5,000+ posts]

with a TL, the design is only half the battle...testing the **** thing is what takes the time and effort.

Basically, a TQWT (tuned quarter-wave tube) is a design that completely eliminates the rear wave of the sub, tapering from around 2.5*Sd down to Sd at the opening. Stuffed with polyfill to slow the wave down through the length of the line.

Do a Google search of them, there are some excellent websites out there that give some theory and building tips for 'em.

Good link. I am not too familiar with T-lines myself. Maybe I'll pick up a RL-i 8" and do one up someday.

I don't have that kinda time ATM. Got any good links about building ABC?
