Mike R Home Theatre IB subwoofer project

[mtbdudex 0]

Hi;

I got here via my build thread on "The IB cult site", Mike R DIY IB subwoofer project.

As newbie here this is my 1st post.

To make a long story sorta short, I'm finishing my basement and doing a Home Theatre room, and I'm going with Infinite Baffle subwoofer 4 x 15" (or 18") line array.

Here is a pict of that image (details in link above):

I cut the concrete window this past weekend and now I need to fill that hole with a IB line array subwoofer!

16" x 66" IB sub "window" from HT side

16" x 66" IB sub "window" from utility room side:

Now, I'm at the detail design stage and soon part(s) buying stage.

I'll be back here as I do some research into my IB subwoofer options.

Any advice/part suggestions is appreciated.

I have about $1.1k total budget for this IB subwoofer, that's for 4 subwoofers (15" or possibly now 18"), amp(s), EQ, mounting boards, everything. I ran 2 lines of speaker wire from the AV closet to that location prior to drywall already (14ga/4c each), the run is pretty short about 7-8 feet total.

So, recommendations based on that is appreciated.

Thx,

Mike R

Welcome!

Looks like an awesome project you have going on!

If you don't want to spend tons of money on the subs, I know Acoustic Elegance is having a sale on their IB15s. $100 per driver.

Pretty Cheap and definitely applicable to your project.

Otherwise I know that Fi Makes and IB subwoofer too.
