I'm curious if anyone has built this beast. I built one but before I could use it I blew my tempest. I now have the enclosure sitting in my garage and I'm using a polk 12" sub. I don't know if I am going finish it or sell the enclosure so I am curious how others have liked this design.
 
I use 3 Q=0.61 sealed tempest subs in my room. I'd say they need a bit of eq to make nice and flat, and that they do deliver a decent amount of bass (each sub has 300W going to it)

For stereo I prefer them crossed at 40Hz to my mains - my mains have 2 x 10" s-speak drivers per side and they are better for sound quality than the tempests. However 😀 If I want high out put i cross my mains at 80Hz and enjoy the big bass....

At the moment they are crossed at 80Hz and doing fine (gives me better dynamics at reference levels on dvd)

Cheers,

Rob
