[QUOTE="John Halliburton, post: 89283, member: 8"] Re: Small-ish Home Theater Subwoofer First, Bennett has a predisposition to use something in the product line for the company he works for. Second, in a small room setting, there will be room gain available, so the 35-40hz might be possible with some processing. Third, it's gonna be tough to get an F3 of 35hz . Low forties is about it, imo. The ability to process the dual 8" design does have limits in room, and even though it may not be an issue, I'd rather have a design that didn't need total dependence on room gain. Overkill is good. ;>) Bennett, The cabinet is already pretty large at 60l, so look for a single 10" or 12" with lower fs that will allow you to achieve the desired F3 pre room gain and processing. It may be tough finding something in the stock B&C catalog in a 10" or 12" that is geared toward home theater subwoofer use. I currently use one of the excellent drivers from Acoustic Elegance in Green Bay-John Janowitz makes some great drivers. Best regards, John [/QUOTE]
