A local audiophile contacted me to design a combination HT/music system. For the subwoofer he was looking at a few well-regarded powered designs. One was beyond his budget and the other too large. I designed this 15" TC Sounds woofer to be driven with a 1000-watt DSP amp. The crossover and equalization curves I programmed for  -3db @20hz bass extension and -6db@60hz Linkwitz-Riley crossover point. This response is +0/-3db so if you use the standard +/-3db curve you can see that the bass extension would be considered around 15hz. Sorry - we don't play the numbers game.   :wink:

This is a sealed cabinet, 19 1/8" x 19 1/8" x 18". We modify it with with additional MDF and composite damping material. The amplifier can be mounted on the rear or placed in an external cabinet. I can also do on-site measuring / programming to adjust for room or placement issues.

I had one but with my low $ Nikon I wasn't that happy with the result so I deleted it.  :evil:
Basically a 1000-watt ICE power amp with dual DSP's for very accurate filter control. Balanced input as well.
