While spending my infinite amount of time on the internet looking for subwoofer info I came accross this. Anyone familiar with this design or tried to build one from the plans?.

OK no bites at the original post, anyone care to comment on the use of a folded horn for a home theatre sub?

Very interesting. I'd love to hear from a few guys who had actually built one, and read their reviews.

I like that this enclosure is BIG and imposing..... but then its pretty square and "normal" looking from an external stand point. (I'm not much of a fan for "normal")

I hope to get the same kind of performance out of a big ol' 14 foot sono tube in a straight TL design, but for a fraction of the work / cost.... AND to end up with an item that makes people walk into my living room and say, "What the #$%@ is that crazy looking thing" !?!? ;-)

In any case, whether its folded, or a straight shot, I'm feeling pretty confident that TL's are the way to go....... unless you have a basement, attic, etc, and the money (which I personally do not) for a bunch of big drivers, for an IB setup.

Hey if you find any unbiased reviews of this folded TL design, please post them here.

Thank you,
Fish
