Have been building our retirement home on an Island that is off grid and boat access only.
Background on build.
The home will be powered by PV and MH. Heat is hydronic via Solar and a Wood Burning Gasification fireplace with a water jacket. No fossil fuels required for our home.
The home has a dedicated music room which has the following dimensions W16'x H10' x L24'.
Learned from experience after building my existing home music room that I build 18 years ago and also from ones that I have build for my clients. I'm a GC.
Retirement home music room walls are 8" cast concrete, floor is suspended concrete 8" and also sog . Ceiling is 5" x12" fir beams with solid 3" t&g fir timber. Will be purchasing a pair of Apogee Diva's from True Sound Works.
Want to help out the the lower end of the Divas with an infinite baffle subwoofer.
The Divas will probably be 3-5 ft from the front wall, three comfy chairs for listening.
So my questions are :
1. Is an infinite baffle a good fit with the Divas ?
2. With an infinite baffle should the opening be near my sitting position ?
3. In front or behind me ?
4. Forget about IB and go for a different sub, Funk, JL, Seaton, Paradign.....
