Here is the top view of my room. The last owner put two subs in the cabinet on each side of the TV. I tried one under there, but didn't like the results. The TV is huge and that is what is behind the wood behind the center channel, so not usable space. The projector screen would go all the way across the top so that wont work. If I don't go IB. I wonder if its better to get two $600-$700 subs or 1 $1400 sub.

There are a couple options for IB. One is behind the TV wall. That room is for access to the back of all the gear and its about 3x14. But I believe you want it sealed from the front side to back side. I could do something on the right side behind the right speaker, but I'm not sure that is a good spot. Above the TV won't work because we want to get a screen to come down there and they would move the screen. The second spot is along the short wall along the left side where the opening to the room is. There is a storage area under the steps. Who you want all four together or spread out a little. Thanks,

Thanks, Northshore. That was the previous owners. I have 13" VTI from stands and mounts.com I got for $79 which I then customized slightly to tilt the speaker upward toward the seating position.

Not too many size and cosmetic constraints, but I'm sure the wife would prefer to have the sub/subs look good, or be hidden or maybe work as an end table, etc. I don't know a lot about DIY, I've see the IB Cult site and there could be a couple options but I've never heard one and havent seen detailed instructions. What kind of DIY did you have in mind?

First time poster, long time reader (3-4 months) My wife and I have moved into a new slightly used house and it has a theater room(20x14,riser,acoustic paneled walls/ceiling - see previous owner pic attached)which only came with the 65" TV. I've recenty bought the 7 setup all the way around and a couple outlaw 200 amps. Now I have about $1400 remaining in theatre room allowance for the short/medium term. I see the JBL sub as the weakest link and I have my wife on board we need to upgrade that area. I've read a ton on SVS,HSU,RSW15 and one sub or two and one sub or some kind of tactile deal. I would appreciate any recommendations the best way to go among those thoughts. Thanks,
