I've already built the TLAH Pros for our church's sound system, and these sound great and play plenty loud. The obvious (to pro-audio guys) problem is the lack of bottom end, these don't really go below 100hz w/out some help from the EQ. So we're looking for subs.
I have BFM's plans, and I was considering either the Titan 48 (with a Lab 15 sub) or possibly the Titan 39, but they're pretty big. We'd like to put 2 of these subs under the front of our stage (one on each side) firing toward the audience, but if anyone here thinks this is a bad idea I'm ready to listen. The issue with this is that I think the footprint for both of the Titan subs is 24"x24". I can obviously lay them on their side, but I think I only have 21" of stage height to play with IIRC. Plus, if you look at the stage in the picture, less width would be good because we would like to keep as much of the stairs as we can.
So here's my question... We found these JBL subs; they seem to be reviewed well and dimensionally would fit under the stage perfectly... JBL STX818S. The cost for these JBL subs is almost triple what a pair of the Titan 48s would cost, so saving money is always a good thing and I'm definitely down to build for them. Are there any pro subwoofer designs that are as small as these that would rival the JBLs in terms of output??
Here's a pic of the stage. The 2 yellow arrows are where we'd like to place the subs (unless someone with more proaudio wisdom than I has a better option), and the yellow box is where the TLAH Pros are flown...
And for what it's worth, here's the only pic I have of the TLAH Pros...
