On the contrary, I have built (and like T-TQWT). Mine too has rattled walls at several friends' homes.
The only minor peeve I have with them is that "mine" (loaded with an afire shiva) struggles a bit dynamically when mated to high efficiency speakers like horns or arrays. Horns just seem to mate more "effortlessly" to these kinds of speakers. YMMV depending on what drivers you use.
When used with the typical 87-90 db/w/m however, T-TQWT work just fine.
My T-TQWT was documented at http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/subwoofers/170277-opinions-needed-tapped-horn-drivers-2.html

Yes, it's based off the HR sim 3 translated to the posted sketchup(though I didn't know to set segment profile as PAR at the time. I don't think I ever posted impedance and FR response .
Anyways, I get the T-tqwt back next month - it's been in rotation at various residences over the past year. I'll post some measurements then .

Hi,
Eminence LAB12's in 100L each, tuned to 20Hz.
FWIW for two subs best is about 0.3 along the rear
wall and then about 0.3 along the opposite side wall.
Only one cabinet needs a really big sub amplifier
to drive both cabinets, think about 500W+ 4 ohm.
(The two will be 3 ohm, decent amp should cope.)
rgds, sreten.

Sure, for the cost of 1 1/2 sheets of MDF. I'll throw the MCM 8" driver in for free. Just remember the cab is bare MDF
