A word of caution, don't mount them directly into the wall. I tried that and there's no way to stop the wall from shaking. IT's suprising how 2-4 oz of cone can shake a whole room when it hits against the wall. I'm redoing my IBs by building a push pull manifold so the woofers are counter ballanced and fire from the side of the manifold into the room. Also the manifold will sit behind the wall and not touch it. In theory this should greatly reduce secondary vibrations with the air movement from the woofers beeing the only force at work.
PPSLIB= push pull slot load infinate baffle
I should have this working in a few days. I'm using Acoustic Elegance IB15 woofers.
