Received a request to make a cabinet for a subwoofer.
Decided to use the proven NHT 1259 12" driver made
by Tongen in Japan and the Keiga KG-5230, 300 Watt
plate amplifier. Both available from:
http://www.madisound.com
The first step is to make drawings of the basic cabinet
to calculate the material needed. It was also decided
to make a cabinet with drawers to hold CDs/DVDs, that
would sit atop the subwoofer cabinet.
