Some of you may laugh, but im being serious
My friend is wanting to get a setup going for his basement in his home. He has a good setup for his receiver etc, but we are going to make a custom sub/box and then an amplifier for his home theatre. We are going to try and find a decent 15" car sub with some serious excursion, and we are planning on running this:

It puts out 1400w RMS bridged, so we can run multiple subs at home. Thanks for your input. |
Might as well get the EP2500 (4000 now) instead for a little extra head room.

Find a old Audio Control Phase Coupled Actuator Series III (it is a home epicenter + subsonic filter and 24db crossover (hp and lp).

Yes it'll work well. I assume you plan to use active filtering.
I will also try to ebay that home epicenter and check it out. As for the ep2500 it is only a little more I think your right, but only a 1400w to 1800w difference. I know running 1400w in Car audio is ridiculous ( to me since im running a single 10 @ 200w, although I used to use an l7 @ 1k ), and my boston acoustics 10" is running 250w rms at home, and it is loud. Therefore my belief is that even 2 15's in a large (5+ cu ft) ported box running off 1400w would be more than enough. Right? :-) |

I am going to read up on this active crossover ( im thinking it is as simple as a eq/co rack that you can adjust digitally? ) if so then yes.

Hehe..... I have one of those old PCA series III and I love it. Makes a nice difference when listening to movies for example. The trick is to know how much restoration to use.
