My name is John and I live in Tennessee. Just joined the forum, fascinating reading! I have an almost completed HT consisting of a 65" Panasonic plasma with Klipschorns, Cornwalls and a single Belle for sound. Thinking about changing out my pair of powered Yamaha subs for a single Tuba or something along those lines. I can't help but think a horn-loaded sub would be a great match for the Heritage line of speakers I'm using.
Room is 16 x 12' and any advice would be very appreciated. I have a "feeler" out to Rick Lee in Lewisburg as I am not competent on the building side. Hope he can set me up.
Just damn glad to be here!

Hi John and welcome to the forum 
Depends a bit on space, but you won't go wrong with the table tuba or even the long style TT under that plasma, or standing upright in a corner.
One should do the trick for you room size. Sometimes 2 are required to sort out room nodes/modes.
I'm sure Rick will sort you out.
Enjoy your stay...

Re: Hello fellow audiophools!
Thank you all for your welcomes and well wishes! To answer the last question, I am in South Pittsburg. A small town on the Alabama border just west of Chattanooga. SP is famous for frying pans if you can believe that. The Lodge factory has been here for over a hundred years.
I have hooked up with Rick Lee in Tullahoma and we're already talking about a sub for me. I am leaning toward something in the TT and THT range, would prefer something flat on the floor as opposed to a tall column. Room is kinda small with all those big speakers in there now. But I got a big hole in the front center where my Yamaha's sit currently that I think will do nicely.
