INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS: If your country is not listed at checkout, please contact me with your address and I will add your country and reply with a shipping quote. All international orders may be subject to import duties. This is out of my control. I have found that only some EU countries will charge import duties (so far only France and The Netherlands, and not every time).
Now in stock and ready to ship!
I first built one of these for myself around 2007. I was looking into buying a Yamaha Subkick but found them a little too pricey and figured I could build something myself. I went through a bunch of different speaker cones until I found one that actually blew away the Yamaha. Shortly after building it, a friend borrowed it and he told me to name my price because he wasn’t giving it back. So I sold it to him and built another one. This happened a few more times with different friends so I built a batch of 10 of these in 2011, which sold within a couple of weeks. So then I did another batch… and another… As more people have been interested in having me build one for them, the batches have become bigger and as of 2020 I now have them in stock permanently, ready to ship at any time.
As of April 2025, I have started building a 10dB attenuator into the XLR connector of the D-Sub. The original design had a very high output that could be challenging when using a preamp that does not have a PAD switch. Additional in-line PADs can be purchased here for use with older D-Subs, or to further attenuate the level of a current D-Sub or any other microphone.
Stand not included (D-Sub features a standard 5/8”treaded mic stand mount).
High Quality Components - High Quality Sound - Lifetime Warranty
I use only the highest quality components for these builds. Mogami cable and a Neutrik XX series gold connector, as well as high quality solder and stand adapters.
If my D-Sub doesn’t blow you away, I will send you a return label and issue a full refund. You would be the first!
All my products come with a lifetime warranty. In the extremely unlikely event your D-Sub stops working (under normal use) within one year, I will repair it and pay for shipping. If it stops working after one year, I will be happy to repair it for free. You just pay shipping and replacement parts (if needed).
