slawre5 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Hey guys I need some advice on a budget subwoofer for my 5.1 system in my living room. It's going to consist of KG 5.2s for the fronts KG 3.2s for surrounds I'm looking to buy a center channel and a subwoofer. I will power the subwoofer with an Adcom GFA-2535 bridged to 200 watts @ 8 ohms. I realize this is a klipsch forum but I was thinking about buying a 12 inch Miller and Kreisel driver off of ebay (90$) and building a subwoofer ( I have experience in buidling cabinetry and access to an extensive woodshop)... Any thoughts? maybe open me up to some more options? I check craigslist in the dallas area for a used klipsch subwoofer but they are always kinda pricey.

InVeNtOr Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 welcome, we are glad you joined our little group.... A2-300 anything from them will be worth your money. i have the same subwoofer and it is turned down, and still shakes things around. not to be nit picky, but since this is a "subwoofer" question, you should post it in that section. maybe The Ear can respond and give the expert advice and which sub woofers to buy. i cheaped out and bought the a2-300. not sure if that was the specific one he reccemended.

slawre5 Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 150$ I have no problem building a box. So if you could reccommend me a driver for that price it would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slawre5 Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 What do you think about the driver I found on ebay? as opposed to say a Dayton driver from parts express? I do like elemental designs and have experience with their use in car audio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
