Tips: Please Watch my podcast, “Wood Talk With Tru”. It’s new and the learning has just begun. Tricks: There are no tricks when building a quality product . I am a Master Woodworker and Speaker Builder. I don’t cut corners.

Conclusion:

The Reference Subwoofers are extremely well made and are accurate with a wonderful tone. I do not port my sub cabinets as I am an audiophile where tone in more essential than a booming bass. I would hope that I will be accepted as an Ambassador as I would represent Parts Express with enthusiasm and knowledge as PE is second to none in quality and service.
