An amplifier, a source and a volume control between them. You'll probably want some other speakers too. |

Build a box using the manufacturers specs, tune a tad lower. Get a plate amp from partsexpress or the like to match the sub. In a dorm room you should be fine using a 10" or so. Watch the ohm load between your amp and sub and be sure not to drown out the other frequencies in the system. Connect your receiver to the plate amp using the sub out line and set all amp parameters accordingly. |
