Hey,
Im looking to build some speakers for my room; towers with good bass (about 30hz), clear highs and sweet sound. Now for the hard part: the entire project needs to come in at about $500. I have never built DIY speakers, but I have what I would consider very good woodworking skills. They will be used for music listening (rock and rap) and later I will add other speakers to form a surround sound setup for movies and music, so the drivers need to be good so that I can enjoy them later. I don't have the best ear, but I do have a fairly good set. Any kit recommendations? Im thinking a MTM, TMM, TMW 2.5 system, or whatever you can think of. Any input would be greatly appreciated and I also need advice on cheap amps, too.
Thanks,

Actually I lied; I have built a subwoofer for my sister's car, but that isn't really the same.
