Hi All,
This DIY is for my brother..
Idea is to build dual sealed subwoofers, powered by a stereo power amplifier and paired with AVR (sub-out)..
What we have : A Sonodyne 2 channel power amplifier unused.. (100 Watts in 8 ohms two channels driven and abt 150 watts in 4 ohms capable)..
What we plan to do : Have seen plenty of passive car subwoofer drivers on amazon.in abt 3,000 Rs (or) lil more for a 12inch driver.. Would they make a good choice for home use, am not so sure.. Buying two of these drivers, shouldn't cost more than 6 (or) 7K.. and a capable 18mm plywood as enclosure for both (MDF isn't easily aval), shouldn't cost more than 7K.. So two passive subwoofers, powered by a stereo power amplifier..
Some 12 inch driver on amazon.in - https://www.amazon.in/Pioneer-TS-W3...coding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=Q8XN59GFDNMXSAN7KB38
Will use single RCA (AVR sub-out) to dual RCA inputs on Stereo power amplifier.. And connect the passive subs like how we connect speakers..
Neither me, nor my brother have DIY experience with subwoofer build.. So not aware of limitations of this build.. Would like to get some clarity on this topic..
Appreciate your inputs..
