Six weeks and 120 hours later, my 36" TubaHT Low Profile subwoofer is finished. I couldn't be happier with the results. I used the Dayton RSS390HF-4 15" driver powered by a Behringer NX-6000 amp, and DSP'd using a MiniDSP 2x4HD. I used baltic birch plywood and finished it with Watco Natura...

Thank you, Tom!

Thanks, Seth.

That is a photo that I found online. My panels are all cut, and I'm a couple of days away from starting assembly.

I had a similar thought as your suggestion. I appreciate your input.

I am building a TubaHT Low Profile in 36" width. In the build instructions, it says that you can use 3 sets of braces for enclosures that are wider than 25", but not to exceed 8" in between braces. A 36" wide enclosure with three sets of braces would have them spaced apart 8.375&...
