FS: Morel Ultimate Custom Built Subwoofer with amplifier

An upcoming move is going to leave me without a dedicated two channel audio room.

My current system occupies two audio racks and that will not work moving forward.


Up for sale is a subwoofer I built recently for two channel use.

This design and driver were chosen for sound quality and accuracy for music use.

This is not a subwoofer designed for maximum output in a home theater.













The driver used is the Morel UW1058 10" Ultimate Subwoofer. This driver retails for $400 and is an incredibly advanced design.

The cabinet is built using Smith & Fong Plyboo Bamboo plywood which is the best material I have ever seen used for speaker or sub cabinetry. It is very expensive and can be hard to source.

Included in the sale is a Dayton Audio SA1000 that is like new. It is one of the best subwoofer amplifiers available today and goes for $425. It is the current version that is being sold now.  Stock photo below.


It allows the user to dial in the sub based on their specific system and musical tastes.

It is a full size amplifier and has a very high build quality. It can be used to drive one or two subwoofers.

This is a package sale of the custom Morel sub and SA1000 amplifier and cable.

The cable is the DIY White Lightning wire terminated with plugs that are compatible with the excellent GR Research / Electra Tube connectors that are installed on the back of the subwoofer cabinet. They are cutting edge technology and the closest thing to using bare wire.

I will not separate them.

It is very natural sounding and not boomy like many subwoofers.

Subwoofer dimensions 16.25" x 17.5" x 17"

$900 includes paypal and Fed Ex Ground shipping to lower 48 US.

It would cost quite a bit more just to buy materials let alone have this built and shipped.

    I purchased an Amp that Nick built in which the quality of construction is only outdone by the beauty of its
sound. 
    If I did not have two subwoofers on order, I would be all over this like white on rice!
    I promise that whoever purchases this will not only be extremely happy, they will consider it one of the best purchases they ever made. 
    Just to see the care that Nick takes in boxing things up to ship them is a treat unto itself.

Have you done any measurements for low frequency response?

Sub, amp, and cable still available.



I do not have any measurement gear or a complete system at this time to provide any measurements.

The Morel Ultimate drivers are state of the art and the sound quality will not let you down.  Sealed box design for clean bass that is perfect for two channel.

Happy Labor Day!

Chip,

Recommend you take a drive if really interested.  I'm from mid-Michigan and travel around the state to hear stuff, visit audiobuds, and attend audiofests (Traverse City, Cadillac, Mt. Pleasant, Livonia, and Ann Arbor so far this year).  You don't really expect Nick to drive 6 hours round trip to act like a door-to-door saleman, do you?  Besides there are three or four decent audio shops in the Detroit area to visit while you're over there.
