Oh christ where to begin... Which pictures shall I post?
Ok here we go: Sub driver: ![]() Sub before it became down-firing: ![]() Down-firing, but pre-top-painted: ![]() Sub as it is now, finished: ![]() Specs: 12" Driver Powered by a Technics 100Watt integrated amplifier Goes down to around 23Hz audibly. Sounds amazing with films and goes incredibly loud ![]() I'm damn proud of it, put a fair bit of effort into it, and would never sell it or get rid of it for anything

Bought the driver and the roughly-built cabinet on eBay for £10 (Yes £10!!). The guy offered to deliver it for another £10 so £20 in total which is the sale of the century IMHO
![]() It took a lot of work to get it looking and sounding as nice as it does now ![]() It stands about 60CM tall ![]() Edit: That's an incredibly nice sounding sub you have there if my memory serves me correctly from reading reviews What's the rest of your system?
