    Great project!
    I was really surprised (very nice surprise) to see something like this on a pc forum.

    Also, +1 for the great taste in music ;)

    What sort of -3db point are you expecting with the bass drivers?

    Thanks! Bass should reach 85hz. It doesn't sound like much on the paper but most electronic music has it's thumb around 100hz. Better to have it just a little bit thin but megaloud than unaudible 20hz :D (remember this is my fourth build, first blaster was able to play down to 45hz but it wasn't audible outdoors, just a waste of electricity)

    Parts are now drawn. I'll print them first to see if I have made any stupid mistakes, then I'll send the file to laser cutting company.

    zKilla: it's a diy sub to be exact :D http://metku.net/index.html?path=mods/subwoofer/index_eng

    10" seas l26roy with hypex plate amp. Speakers are active Genelec 8030's connected to my pc via M-Audio firewire 410 interface. 52" Sony is also connected to my pc which is hidden inside the bed :D

    In that ghettoblaster pic the main speakers are Behringer's but I have also the Genelecs. It depends if I'm doing music I have Genelecs at the computer desk and Behringers at the movie watching spot.

    Here's more photos of the setup, that cage is my sleeping and computer area:
