Hi, Keenan.

i stared very closesly at those carpeted woofer enclosures, because they =
seemed to deliver maximum boom in a fairly efficient manner. just be =
aware that these enclosures tend to 'boom'
at a particular frequency, (thanks to the cabinet design) and this can =
wear on you once you become aware of of it.

i found a closeout on a 5.1 Sony home theater amp on pricescan.com, and =
have put it to interesting use. the amp can "synthesize" 4 channels of =
audio based on the stereo input.=20

2 channels (the front ones) are used to rumble the console, armrests and =
controls. the rear channels provide the traditional sound you would =
expect. the speakers are positioned on either side of my head, so it's =
very close to wearing a huge set of headphones.

the subwoofer channel will be used to obvious purpose once purchased.

just one more source of confusion:
