Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

RE: What is the best 30-300hz bass cab solution?

Try one of my my PPSL designs. This one is 100.5dB/2.83V/1M midband, and is usable to 400hz or so.

Here is a picture of Asylum member Les Hudson's efforts:

This is roughly a 24" cube, and is -3dB at 27hz.

PPSL stands for push-pull slot-loaded and is done to reduce distortion. Art Welter did a test at DIYaudio and got a 30dB reduction in 2nd harmonic and a 20dB reduction in 4th harmonic in the bottom octave at full power. 20dB is a 100:1 reduction!
