littleitaly1990 Posted February 28, 2008 Author Report Posted February 28, 2008 Ported boxes don't play, well, don't properly play below tuning frequency...and the human ear at the age of 18 can't hear anything below around 32 anyway.... very few songs get that low..

FYI-Future-Star Posted February 28, 2008 Report Posted February 28, 2008 a couple buddies of mine tuned boxes to like 40-42hz and they played below the box tunning just fine no problem at all Team O.B.M '97 Tahoe Build after the new year!!!

AI James Posted February 28, 2008 Report Posted February 28, 2008 a couple buddies of mine tuned boxes to like 40-42hz and they played below the box tunning just fine no problem at allits not an issue of it being possible, its just at what cost. Tuning at 40hz when you listen to 30-34 music all the time imo isnt recommended and is asking for recones
01xtreme Posted February 28, 2008 Report Posted February 28, 2008 there is no problem for subs playing below the tuning frequency of the box. I would check to see what your subsonic filter is set to on your amp (if it has one). If that is too high is will cut out the low frequencies.

I would check to see what your subsonic filter is set to on your amp (if it has one). If that is too high is will cut out the low frequencies.the infrasonic filter is 27hz on rockford amps.... and like I said before, when below tuning frequency, the box cannot control the woofer linearly and you will risk overexcursion, hence, bottoming out. It plays below frequency, but I guarentee you are not hearing anything nor is it a clean signal, and if you don't believe me, go get a tone below the frequency and play it...but not too loud or you will bottom out A vitrolic, megalomaniacal sadistic psychopath.

It didnt bottom out. So I went to 29hz New project in the works
littleitaly1990 Posted February 28, 2008 Author Report Posted February 28, 2008 1st off...thats a mag, which is a sq sub and excels at low end ..... 2nd, if your box was tuned lower, the mag would sound way better! A vitrolic, megalomaniacal sadistic psychopath.
