Hi I was just wondering if a DD 3512 ported would be any good for a home theater setup?

you could try it??
I always thought it might be a little too much and some 6.5"'s and a 10" would be more then enough.

too much..not enough...
my dad has all sunfire in his room and martin logan in the home theater...
that sunfire sub is crazy.. i'd put that thing in a car its so damn loud....it has like a 2400watt amp on it...a 3512 should be cool in a home theater, tune it low...20-28hz around there...

Ah sunfire and Martin Logan=good stuff.
So the question you have is the 3512 good for home theater use?...does a bear crap in the woods?
I actually have a 9012 in a 3 ft`3 box tuned to 35 hz powered by a Crown UT2000 (1950 watts 2ohm mono) and it F**KING jams!!
I would thing just slightly less power for your 3512 and a higher tuning like mine,and you will not be disappointed.
Mine are matched to Aragon 200-5 and Act3 pre/pro with NHT 2.3s and Canton center and surrounds.Sounds killer.

A 3512 should sound great.

I have a 9515 in 4.8cu ft tuned to 31hz and it's very nice. Actually slams pretty hard considering there's only 1300w going to it...

Can we say 1812 cannon shots? [Big Grin]

I had to take it off the 2.2kw it was on before coz it would move the furniture around the room at low volumes. [Smile]

Amp will be a DD soon, as I'm ditching the 95 for a new sub...might be black. [Wink]

Peace, Love, Bass.

For music, yes I would think it would be great. However, it may not be able to do some of the low movie effects where a home sub in a large ported box tuned to 18-20 Hz would perform.
