i currently have a 12" db 500 tuned to 18HZ being bushed by an ED LT/350. this setup sounds great but i want more. i was thinking of going to a 15" driver and maybe doing a sonotube. what would be a good driver to pair with the behringer ep1500 for a room that is about 12x18x8. also what else would i have to get to make the ep1500 work or will the sub cable from my receiver plug right into it just like the plate amp?

If you REALLY want an upgrade, I'd say go all out and get an 18" driver. eD, Mach5 IXL-18, Fiaudio.


To use the EP1500, you need a RCA to 1/4" adapter. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=090-285

Avoid a future upgrade again and double what you plan on building.


My first build was a pair of NHT 1259's. I bought monsters inc.....the sock blew up....so did my dual NHT 1259's.Great little subs , but not up to the task.

so i will have to change from just the single subwoofer cable that i have running to the plate amp and run rca's and then put the adapter to 1/4 for the ep1500 or can i just get an adapter for the single wire that i already have running because it will be a pain to run a new wire.

you can install an adapter and keep your existing wire-just curious but why beringer? check out crown xti-1000 with signal dsp on board.

i havent made any decisions on anything yet i just thought that the behringer would be a good upgrade from my current setup and being that my house is only around 900ft^2 total then i don't need just a massive amount to make a huge difference in my house. so i am open to any suggestions that are around the price ranger of the behringer. i would like to keep my budget to around 550 total.

what if i get the ED 19ov.2 dual 2 ohm and the behringer ep1500 how well would this work together? would be around $500.

The EP1500 and the EP2500 are the standard work horses for DIY subs. Any other brand with that power will cost you more.

You would have a killer sub.
