Recommended Posts

I found this spot to experiment with

Completed IB

This setup consists of 4 12" Assasins, a parts express 1000 watt plate amp, and behringer feedback destroyer... It hits relatively hard and clean however my crappy drop ceilings vibrate uncontrollably which ruins it for me. I went with a different route with the assasins, 8 cubes sealed, sounds so much better to me. I can post pics of the sealed box if anyone wants to see. This is my basement, I'm gonna try another IB in the living room upstairs with some Mark I Brahma 12"s soon.

I absolutely love IB HT setups. But I can see where you would have issue with the vibrations in the drop ceiling.

But... even with the BFD you still have a low qts setup with the Assassins. I would look to find a driver with a higher qts of .55-.65 for a solid IB setup. You will have the same issues with using the Brahmas for IB subs as well. Their Qts is too low to be a great candidate even though they have plenty of linear excursion.

Pics of the sealed box?

Ok, here are some pics of the sealed box... I should have took build pics, this thing is reinforced pretty well. Those are the AA MTMs by the way, they sound incredible with movies and music.

If you're looking for IB, consider the DIYCable driver that is being sold at around $125 right now. Check out the Acoustic-Visions forum here for more information.

You must be the Devil, I just ordered 4 of those things after looking at them. Damn, I'm gonna be a broke mofo, but at least I'll have a hell of an IB setup! :domoslay:
