  1. Tuned too low is probably causing the sub to roll off on the top end too quickly.

    I like DD/AQ's for the punch they have as it's perfect for the music I mostly listen to.

    4.25-4.5cubes net, 16^2 port area tuned 35-38Hz should be plenty punchy. Also LPF 80-100Hz...

    x2 on your port, way over the 9:1 ratio...

    kk, right now when i turn my lpf up any over 70ish it likes to make a popping noise when it punches =/ hopefuly this new box solves the problem

  2. The choking noise you hear is port noise, which is what you'll get if your port is too narrow in relation to the height as well.

    I can still change the port on my box im making right now, but idk who can do it for me haha to make it nice, i have the whole box pretty much made, but dont have port made in their yet so if anyone can change it for me id be a pretty happy camper

  3. Yea def dont tune the box at 30, i heard a DD 9518 in a box at 30 hz....eh not too good

    What didnt you like about it ? sorry my system is the only one ive herd other than majorly wrong made boxes with kickers in them lol, oh forgot to say i eefed up on my current box and it has 10 in. port per foot instead of 16-17 so its choking , i dont no what the difference between the current box and my new box will be but well see

  4. How does the current box im building sound to you?

    Outer dim.

    16" high

    28" wide

    30" deep

    Port

    2.5" high

    26.5" wide

    26" long

    Net vol. 4.13 ft.^3

    tuning freq. 36.33hz

    Port area per ft. 16.03 in sq ?

    2.5x26.5 port might give you port noise

    how so? i had a guy design this for me since i dont have the most experience with ports

  5. haha if you supercharge your motor you will notice more punch. the box tuning really wont affect your punch that much i wouldnt think. the motor is the motor and unless you get more mottor or more cone area the punch will be same. best bet is SC if possible then adding more motor strength

    true true, my buddy with a 9512 changes his box to around 37 hz, n was able to turn high pass up more making it punch pretty nice. Right now with my tuning my DD doesnt like to have high pass turned up anymore than it is right now, so theirs not much punch.. but hey gotta love the lowwssss

    im tuned to 37 hz with my 2 2510s and they hit me in the chest real nice

    how many cubes is your box? shit i wanna try a smaller box and put tuning around 37 hz just for a fun project when im bored now and see what difference it makes

    i have a seperate box for each woofer. double baffle front. and they each get 1.5 on the dot net. but im gunna build a new shared chamber box giving them 1.7 each. the SC allows for a bigger box due to more control of the woofer. bigger box= hopefully bigger sound while still retaining punch

    How does the current box im building sound to you?

  8. My sub ( 9515 DD & AQ 2200) hits real nice lows, but doesnt have much punch at all. I know the sub can punch, but it since My box is tuned down at 30 my high pass is around 60-70 range. Is this why theirs not much punch? or more because its tuning? Im in progress of my new box at around 36 hz. Should this fix the problem? variouse people told me that theirs no reason for a 30 hz tuning on that single 9515 , so im thinking with the higher tuning i can also turn my high pass up, and should be able to play along with more songs since most songs dont hit good lows my box is tuned to. Should I see a nice increase in the punchiness?!
