I wana know whats the best option as far as frequency i should tune my box for 2 sundown sa 12s it will be powered by a brutus 2610 for now with 2 kinetik batts and all stinger 0 gauge if it matters on stok alt, i mainly play alot of rap, hip hop and slowed songs and i want to be heard from long distances.. sorry if im asking for too much lol

deciding tuning depends on more than just the actual subwoofer.. depends on the vehicle its self along with the install, and how much room you have available... 3.0-3.5 cubes prolly 35-37hz, 3.5-4.0 lower say about 33-35, i had mine in 4.5 cubes tuned to about 32 and shit got down, larger the box the lower the tuning you can play around with easier while maintaining a decently efficient enclosure

this was my 4.5 cube box:

35-40 would give yo nice results on TL... SPL chasers :)

since he wants it loud and be heard from miles away, big box and low tuning would be perfect for him.

as far as box size i can go as big as about 4.8 cubs thats the size box i have in my ride now its for 2 kicker L7s tuned to 35 firing to the side and thats about as big as i could go in the trunk while still being able to take the box out, now i wana go more groundpounding bass with my sa 12s sealed off slot port
