Guest cruiseh Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Has anyone ever built and reviewed any of the sub designs fromhere ? http://www.decware.com/newsite/mainmenu.htm ive built the 12" version of the deathbox with 2 12 inch subs inside, and also tried it with 1 sub. very nice, was in my car running from a 450WRMS amp, just way too heavy. Also have the plans for the WO32 and one day will get around to trying to build it.. some great designs there anyway.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sub tests performed indoors are so room dependent as to be a virtually meaningless, especially as different testers will employ different rooms. Altering one dimension of a room by a few centimetres or altering the sub's location by the same amount can dramatically affect it's sound. Given the choice of comparing subwoofers by scientific testing performed outdoors in a large flat area or in an enclosed room, then outdoors wins hands down. At least the comparison is valid outdoors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
