Best In wall Subwoofer for dedicated home theater?

[Matt]

I would not use the powerpipe for that situation. You will get much better SQ from the inwall 110 or 210's, and for tha size room, I would use at least 2 (if not 4).

Forgive me for making a comment that is likely to offend you, but I perceive that you have far too many questions to be selling a room/system at this level. Your clients are not lab rats, and their home should not become a sceince project while you attempt to gain experience. Is there not someone local that you could partner with to learn how this is done properly?

I say this because each poorly executed sytem reflects negatively upon our entire industry, not just the CI who "thought" he could handle it.

I apologize if I am way off base.

Haha, its ok i dont get offended easily. My lack of knowledge is not in the design of the room, but rather in finding the correct speakers. I do not have a showroom so i dont really have the wealth of knowledge that some people on here may. I have also not installed or heard everything so looking for little quirks that people may have picked up.

I am in the research/design stage right now so trying to figure absolutely everything out, dont worry i take this very seriously... im a cedia certified professional designer and have taken the designing a home theater classes as well. That is of course not to say i am some kind of genious, but rather that i am capable of researching new (to me) technologies and making the correct decisions. Oh i'm also an electrical engineering technologist if that makes you feel any better

I would rather ask a lot of questions than not ask any and walk into it blindly.

One tip I have for any inwall sub is this...

If possible, prewire your sub through several stud spaces. At the time of install, temporarily hook up the sub with a long cable going straight from the rack. Lean your sub up against the wall in front of each stud space that is prewired. Now you can test which location will give you the best bass response before commiting. You can then cut the sub in at the best location. This does work for the Definitive sub as it can be retrofit, it may not work for the subs with bigger in-wall enclosures.

I've worked on theaters with a sub for every speaker... 11 total, 9 subs for LCR, 4 sides 2 rears and 2 subs for LFE..

The new BG in wall subs look good. Different panel/amp set ups for different needs. Big ones are THX Ultra. Not cheap

I wonder if the original poster ever finished that room in Richmond. It's been 11 months, surely it's done or close to being done by now.
