DIY - Pro Audio Plate Amplifier Powered Subwoofer

Today we are building a home theater subwoofer that exactly looks like the very popular SVS PB-2000 Pro subwoofer. We copy everything from the flared front-firing ports, the dark oak veneer skin, and the corner edge contour look and feel, just one exception is the subwoofer driver.
Main components used are the following:
1. Champion Series Pioneer TS-W1212S4 / TS-W12S4 Single 4 Ohm Subwoofer
2. NTBD Pro 1500DT 1500w Subwoofer Plate Professional Audio Class D Amplifier
Building a subwoofer that replicates the appearance and performance of a commercial product like the SVS PB-2000 Pro involves several considerations, including design, materials, and electronics. Keep in mind that building a subwoofer requires technical skills, and if you're not experienced in woodworking, electronics, and speaker design, it's recommended to seek assistance or purchase a pre-built unit.
Enclosure is entirely made of MDF. Most tasks are just circular saw cutting and router edge rounding. The trickiest part of the project is adhering the Chinese-made plastic veneer. It supposed to be a synthetic wood veneer but the product is so inferior, its thickness is just about a piece of paper, leaving several imperfections.
By the way here's the link to TinkerCad 3D object for dimensions:
www.tinkercad.com/things/a8z3...
The plate amplifier was flush-mounted at the back panel of the enclosure. Bringing out the aesthetics of the overall product. Professional grade amplifiers are equipped with XLR connectors on low-level inputs as well as the AC power inputs. You may also noticed that I removed one of the diagonal interior bracing due to its blocking the path of one of the ports.
I hope you enjoy the video and I hope you find our cute little French bulldogs who "does a help" in making the indoor powered subwoofer with ultra cuteness!
I think that is all for today's episode, stay tuned and watch the next video where I bass test this project into oblivion!

[@markjacobsen605]

Always happy to see a new video. Nice job. The amplifier is very interesting. I looked up the price and was shocked at how reasonable the price is. Also I kept thinking it had a fan. But the specs say no. I guess being a class D it is able to run at 4 ohms and not overheat? I am looking forward to the next video with the tests. Lastly, love the dogs. I know you are the Charcoal Monkey. But I always think the brindle Frenchie is!

[@chrclmnky]

Hello Mark good to see you. Yes the plate amp is worth every money spent! Yes it has a fan located center, sorry I forgot to show where it is. It's small but spins when turned on. Also the amp can handle 4 Ohms easy. In fact it can get to 82V AC (1681w RMS) without any clipping as long as the source is clean. Its crossover filter ranges from 20 to 20k Hz so its full range. Really a great amp for the price! By the way there is a DSP version of it I saw in such online marketplaces like Amazon.

[@johannjohann6523]

Just FYI that Polyfill is a moot addition. It doesn't do anything with the acoustics of the speakers box. If you increase box size a little bit a cheap foam pad 1/8" to 1/4" would be better. Like a "Yoga" pad for instance, generally same stuff of expensive sound proofing material if you check for the right pad. You can get a 6" by 2.5'pad for $20 or less, and honesty they make them out of the same stuff. A camping mattress would also work. Then cut it into correct size and use contact cement.

[@chrclmnky]

Hello Ciby, this Pioneer model is only capable of handling 38hz and lowest is about 32Hz. Lower tuning subwoofers are a bit expensive, like those from Peerless, Dayton Audio, Polk, to name a few home subwoofer application.

[@Ciby_K_George]

@@chrclmnky Bro. Pioneer itself is saying 1212D4 has the frequency range of 20Hz - 1.6KHz. You are saying we will be getting minimal of 32Hz. Why?

[@chrclmnky]

@@Ciby_K_George yes can produce 20Hz but not efficiently. If you look at its specs sheet, its Fs (resonance frequency) is around 39Hz, which can be tuned +/- 5Hz off Fs, so it's only efficient near that numbers.
