Nice work Rick. Should be a value leader. Those TC Sounds drivers are no slouches. Is that a TC Sounds Epic, Axis or LMS series? Looks like a Parts Express cabinet.

Yes, and a great amp! We'll also offer a 1000-watt DSP amp as well.

Thanks for your kind comments. This is the LMS series driver. It is a PE cabinet but we modify it for our design.

What's not to like? It's the excellent LMS driver. It's got an adequate 500watt amp, of BASH design, which is excellent as well. It's sealed. And you are selling it close to $1K. Hell, I bet you will send out a pair *shipped* for $2K or better  :thumb:

WOW!  I'm shocked that you're doing this but then again the price reflects it.  I guess you just wanted to make a really good sub that's reasonably priced? 

You would still make a nice enclosure if someone wanted one though.  Right?  I mean, your woodwork really is spectacular.   :thumb:

No - that's set for a level to give me a high signal-to noise ratio.

Rick, what's your take on how the TC Sounds 12'' compares with the Aurasound NS12-794-4A 12'' driver? I know the Aurasound is pricey ($548 at Madisound) but I've found that higher $ does not always necessarily ensure higher quality or performance, though perhaps proper implementation has a lot to do with that.

My TV is an HD CRT and the ideal place to stick the sub is near the TV.

Even small magnets throw a decent stray field.

I think the Aura 18 would make a great tv stand myself...
