[Klipsch Sub 12 Subwoofer in TV wall cabinet?]

Thanks everyone! 

 

It seems the ideal option would be to not put the sub in a closed cabinet. I will figure out a way to arrange my home theater while giving breathing room for my sub. I'm not willing to compromise on the sound quality, with such an awesome sub!  

[Klipsch Sub 12 Subwoofer in TV wall cabinet?]

Hi everyone,

 

I recently purchased a Klipsch Sub 12 Subwoofer (at least I think; it looks exactly like this: http://www.klipsch.com/sub-12-subwoofer/details). I'm looking to install a custom TV wall cabinet set up for my home theater. 

 

Ideally, I would place my subwoofer inside a cabinet with a mesh door; however, mine is a down-firing subwoofer. Does anyone know if I can still put my subwoofer inside and get good bass quality? Because it's down firing, do I have to have an opening at the bottom of my sub so that the bass will come through?

 

Thanks!
