a Bandpass box is a woofer in a sealed box firing into a ported box. hard to tune and usually twice the size with less volume than vented.

This went way over my head in about 2 replies. Bry, you have to show me your system, My virgin ears have never heard a decent sound system in a car and frankly, don't believe in one so maybe you can change that. Every home theatre system has outperformed any car audio system I've ever heard, and I hate car rattling bass.

Ok, console, I can see that being done...but most aren't willing to loose a center console for a sub, storage space is at a premium in these trucks..
no way i'm giving up my XLT console..

I do not know if your system is nice or not but I've heard nothing but good about Zapco so I'd like to have a listen as I've heard nothing but Kicker, and the setups I heard had way too much bass, and the typical speakers sounded like crap. Not to sound conceited but the Ford Audiophile system with 8" sub has been the greatest sounding system in a truck I've ever heard (just not loud enough sometimes, bass is perfect, speakers are clear). About your home theatre, I'm easily impressed and can't wait to own my own home. A dedicated theatre room like this will be a must, hopefully I can wing it and build one myself (need to hang out with a carpenter). Show us some pics of your setup bryan. And if you're as made of money as I think you are, you should throw a drop down Plasma in the bed of your truck suspended from a tonneau, would be fantastic at the lake (drive your truck back, watch a movie @ night while swimming)

LOL I'm in the military...no way in hell am I made of money!!!!

My HT:
Mits 55413 (calibrated)
Denon 3910 (and a 3805 when not powering up the Halos)
Parasound Halo C1
Parasound Halo A52
Paradigm Studio 60's
Paradigm CC470
Paradigm Studio 20's
(2) SVS PB10-ISD's

I won't buy a plasma until I can afford a 60" +. Told you I'm not made of money. lol Plus, I want to trade the Paradigms in for a Monitor Audio Gold Signature series set-up. Can't afford that either.

I don't have a dedicated HT room...yet. In the new house I will!
