Dylank811 Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) I've been told I should throw some fiberglass filling in my box to get it even lower. According to the graph, my range starts to dip right around 21-22 hz and there's a few slowed songs I've played where it bottoms out. :/ Will filling the box be effective to knock it down lower? I'm also not positive on the accuracy of my range because I couldn't make the ideal ports that were suggested. They're a little shorter than they should be.

bassahaulic Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 There isn't a real need to play that low, you can't hear it. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylank811 Posted March 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 I know you can't hear lower than 20 hz (most people) but I can still tell. How low is the last note in Put On (not slowed or anything)? That was one of the few songs that did it. It didn't really bottom out, it just gets a little quieter on that note.

Well with your port being shorter then what the graph says it will have a higher tuning. Only way to fix it is to lower the tuning. To get a flat response, which seems to be what you want, you have to build the box differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is 25 or 26HZ IIRC, I had an XL15 tuned to 27-28hz and in the regular song that was the loudest note. Quote ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............

skittlesRgood Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 filling the box takes up airspace. less airspace = higher tuning.

Dylank811 Posted March 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Haha okay so I may have messed up my tuning with my ports...oh well I'm still happy with it. And yes, my goal was to get the most flat curve I could. So I'm guessing filling the box would be a bad decision? I've heard that it makes the subs think the box is bigger? Is this a wives tale?

Dylank811 Posted March 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 What is the enclosure tuned to? Supposed to be like 21.3 or something. It's not that low because I didn't make the suggested ports. Probably around 27 hz or so...
