Hi spirovios, yes its very right that better subs can be easily built here at a fraction of the cost of the famous sub brands. About 2 years back I started my DIY subs and after a year long time of learning and experimenting I completed my subs. Now after they were done I used to love the way they sounded but still some where in my head I had this feeling that may be hsu, svs sound much better than what I had built and I got this feeling after reading some good reviews about these brands,though I had never had a chance to demo hsu or svs. There is absolutely no doubt that svs and hsu make good subs they are just outstanding and the very best. About three months back a friend of mine from here Kirti rana managed to bring his svs cylindrical sub to my place because I my self wanted to buy that sub just by reading its reviews, so I asked Kirti for the favour of a demo at my place to which he agreed, a very big thanx to him. After hearing the svs sub what I found was that my subs sounded equally as good as this awesome sub and I was very much surprised and happy. I built my subs which have one 10inch long throw dual magnet driver which is actually a driver meant for car audio. As I am a designs engineer myself and I am good with a 3d designs software I was able to size out a sealed cabinet design for myself.so finally I dropped the idea to go for the svs sub and I am a happy owner of DIY subs. I think a lot of things can be done and currently I am working on a DIY stereo amp using the very best materials and I hope that it goes well too
