Shall i choose to build the punisher or not ???

Hi everyone,

I have been doing research on diy speaker building for the last year and intensivly for the last 2 months, it's not easy deciding on what combination to choose, can people with some experience give me their advice please.

I live in France and generally go out to freepartys where most sound system's are just an uncoordinated huge stack of all kinds of different speakers, playing hardtek or hardcore, I'm more a fan of drum & bass, jungle, dubstep etc (although I love tekno aswell) which arn't all that popular over here and I think it's got alot to do with the fact that PA system's over here just don't seem to go low enough to do justice to these bass rich types of music, which yes may sound abit boring without proper "heavy" bass.

After alot of research I've concluded that I would idealy like to have 4x Lab horns, 2x USB & 2x MT130 (or porn, limmer, etc...). Lab horns just seem too big and unpracticle for me really, so I was more thinking of 8x punisher, 2x HD215, 2x MT130(porn, limmer, etc).

Basicly my question is am I going down the right track or not ??? To sum it all up I want to introduce people down here to low frequency's and quality sound that doesn't have a F1 or Turbosound badge on it, with that give abit more of an understanding of what the bass heavy music produced in the UK is all about. I'm not really sure if punishers go extremely low or not, so please give me your impressions on this.

Cost is abit of an issue, but quality sound that goes low and loud is my goal and I don't plan to build it all in one go.

Cheers,
Sam.

what can I say , you said it all Rus . so when do you start building or should I come give you a kick-start

Yeah I have considered building 1850 horns, but right now my questionnings concern 8x punisher with 2x HD215 and 4x MT130, so really I'd like to hear what experienced people think of this set up.

Really don't know why ppl are still building punishers, with HOGS, ES18-BPH, Rhino plans around.

Big question here is wheather you want to run three way or four way?
