RE: Dr.Bruce Edgar Plans

Te main problem with the Seismic sub is it's size and weight (see link). I was part of the Chicago Horn Club crew that did the move in/and out back in the oughties when Bruce demo'd the Titan rig at a Chicago Audio Society meet here. It was like moving a large refrigerator. Also to be considered for subwoofer duty are the Danley Labhorn and Taped horn which perform very well and are referenced on the volvotreter link. I have'nt heard any of Bill Fitzmaurice's subwoofers yet but they certainly look like good candidates for DIY subs. However I live in a 130 year old wood house, and I gave up on the idea of making a horn loaded subwoofer after hearing some of the Danley designs actually shaking the old houses they were demo'd in. Forget about harmonic distortion in the playback equipment, with horn subs in old houses you run into exciting harmonic resonances in the house itself!
