I have been out of the DIY audio game for a long time as I was happy with what I had for the last 12 years. I just moved to a new house recently and I'm setting up a secondary TV area and for simplicity sake I am going with the Dayton BS41 LCR passive soundbar (for now at least). https://www.parts-express.com/dayton...black--300-686
The big box/retail soundbars just don't cut it for me unless I am going to spend over $2000 which I am not doing for this secondary TV area.
I'm used to my 18" IB sub that I had previously and I know I won't be able to replicate that kind of performance in a small/medium sized box sub but I don't even know where to begin here. I have looked at a few drivers and the Tang Band 6.5" seems popular for small box builds but would 6.5" driver be enough for me? Not sure... Maybe I should look at the 10" or 8" Dayton RS HO or HF drivers?
I need some subwoofer design recommendations please. Reference SPL is not required for this secondary TV area, I'm looking more for clean bass in a moderate sized sub without breaking the bank.
