I'm thinking of building two 15" Ultimax subs in 3 cubic foot per sealed enclosures offered from Parts Express. These fit my space limitations. At 4 ohms I'll get 880 watts RMS per channel (sub rated at 800 RMS). The EPX4000 is a class H amp so efficiency is a bonus as well.
So, how is this setup going to sound in a 12'x20'x8' room with the sub up front 1/4" in from each wall? This is a dedicated home theater with two rows of theater seating. Priorities are sound quality, SPL and low end extension to a lessor extent.
I have the free version of winISD, but it doesn't seem I can add an amp with that version or account for 3 pounds of polyfill added to the 3 cubic foot sealed enclosure as suggested by PE.
Ideally, I'd like to get an idea of how this setup would stack up against dual SVS SB-13 Ultras. I realize the cost of the SVS will be much higher, but interested in getting thoughts on comparison. Both of these options fit my space requirements.
Final question, is it still a requirement to buy a Cleanboxpro with the miniDSP if I'm running a Denon AVR or will the miniDSP up-conver the output voltage?
Thanks for any advice you can give!
