Been lurking around for a few weeks so I thought I'd register. I'm really impressed by some of the builds I've read through, amazing craftsmanship!
I originally found this page from a link on another forum (don't remember which one) about a DIY subwoofer (A bacon and egg theme and burning man come to mind) and the idea of having better sound than a "theater in a box" kit appealed to me. Wife bought me a nice big screen for Xmas but the sound SUCKS. I'm always having her turn it up because I can't hear a thing over the constant noise of the kids and the mutt.
Last time I worked with audio was in the late 90's re-doing all my cars, and friends cars. Haven't ever touched a home set-up and it seems like an entirely different world and a new language.
I think I have 20 different tabs open right now trying to figure this all out, so back to reading I go...

Keep reading away, there's heaps to learn.
And when you're done with that, no doubt there'll be plenty of good people willing to lend a hand with any questions...

Thanks all, still reading. I'm less confused but still trying to figure out crossovers.

Re: Hello from Phoenix
Still trying to figure out ohms, crossovers, and exactly which speakers I'll need to build/ get for my room. Speakers seem to be figured out, mostly looking at which receiver to go with and then the rest should work itself out.88h88 wrote:What's got you confused exactly?
