I love IB setups! That's almost exactly how I had my Tempests, but I only had four of them. Keep the pics coming. Once you go IB, nothing else will compare. Warn your neighbors too, unless they are far enough away. They WILL hear the noise.

Tons of insualtion in the attic and it's a block constructed home. Not much escapes if all doors and windws are home, but vibrations can be felt on structural object close to the home I noticed :)

My 43" Philip plasma(in the picture) does the trick. I can hang it on the wall, just don't care too. I need some place to put audio gear anyway, so I use a TV stand.

If I had a crawl space, I'd use that instead. 4 or more MJ18's look to fit the bill nicely and within a decent budget ;) Take her not saying no as saying yes and run with it :)

I can't wait to move as I am going to do something similar as well. I have this Crown just waiting to belch out 995 at 8 ohms or 965 at 2 <--weird specs but eh, it will be flexible enough to rip up some ground rumbling notes in my house.

I have seen a few amps like that. The flexibility is most important IMO anyway.

And the price was right, I got her free! One of my customers had it in a store house they were going to throw it away, he had me take it out the back door.

Since you have a crawl space, put the Solo in a floor build "coffee" table and have the port comming up under couch.

Bass shakers just met their match in infrasonic frequincy reproduction and tactile listening. :wacky:
