Step 1Procure materials.

Procure materials.
For this project, all you need is a few speakers, some nylon rope, speaker wire, soldering gun/iron, solder, 8 AA's, and a Sonic Impact Class T amp. An MP3 player or the like and a non stock connector for the amp. would help too. It comes with one, but I use a gold plated 3 foot 1/8 cord.

You probably don't have a T-Amp, so go to www.parts-express.com to get one. I use them because they only charge $30 for one, but they sell out real fast. If you are missing any of the other materials, either add to your order or hit the walmart...

The speakers can be any size, with the limitation being that the large one has to be twice the weight of the smaller ones, to balance it out. I used a 6x9 and 2 3.5's but you can use anything you want... Even a 15". My friend is freakin crazy.

Also, If you don't want to buy a T-amp and INSIST on doing everything DIY, try one of the 41hz amps. www.41hz.com you can buy a home made one that you have to assemble component by endless component. you save $2 though, so I guess if you really are that cheap... It actually goes to 50W instead of 30W, but you have to provide everything else, even the case.
