Not yet aphex, but I'll tell you guys about it once Thanksgiving break rolls around for me. Expect an update by this friday or so.
How's it possible?If you want a simple setup and only have one sub and are hooking it up to stock speakers (or aftermarket for that reason), the 2150 is your best bet, It has what s called TriBand setup which allows for one sub to set up on one channel and the other channel to occupy your speakers. So yeah....EL2150....

Well, I have been working with FileZz designing his home theater. I have been doing this for a long time, and I have to tell you these are really some pretty good speakers. They really are worth $100-$150 each. They are not the most efficient, and they can't handle the most power but, for $15, you can't hardly go wrong.
In order to answer all of your questions, I have put together a web page about the whole design process. I explain alot of stuff in detail; Sealed Box, vs Vented Box, 4th Order Bandpass vs 6th Order Bandpass. I show you how to make these speakers go flat to 20Hz. It should answer alot of your questions.
Hopefully, soon we will have under construction pictures of FileZz's Home Theater, and his 32 subs. Yes... He really did buy 32.

Sorry about not answering, someone already described it, but what I meant to say was Tri-Way, and this (like tigerbait noted) just makes a more siplified setup. Nothing really to it. I'm sorry I can't help much, I'm sorta in a learn-as-I-go kind of situation and really should keep my mouth shut since I can't back up what I say even though what I say is true lol. But wow! GengisTom! OMG! Thank you so very much! This should help me lean so much about everything! In any case, when do you guys plan to start tis daunting task? Sounds mighty involved.

Anybody get the 100th customer free deal yet?
I just can't stay away from this site, just looked and they had ONE of the CS8A5 units back in stock for $89, with harnesses except for power, so I grabbed it. This is the unit with a 5 channel amp and crossovers builtin, just run a cable up to your head unit connection to the OEM speakers, one socket to head unit, other socket to speakers. The 4 OEM speakers get 25 wps and the 8" sub in the tube gets 100 watts.
I didn't get one, but they also had a few Pioneer head units for less than $100.
Parallel means the Amp+ goes to speaker1+ and speaker2+, Amp- goes to speaker1- and speaker2-.
Series means the Amp+ goes to speaker1+, and speaker1- goes to speaker2+, and speaker2- goes to amp-.
A couple good sites are listed earlier in the thread.
