MrFree Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 I just built a box that is around 3.cubes and ported to 35 Hz sounds great very very loud with low wattage. First box I built for a van was 5.cubes tuned to 45Hz I think it was too high for the Hifonics I put in it. I personally havnt tuned lower then 35Hz. What do you guys think about the 30's mid 20's etc..From you personal experience Not scientific theory what do you guys think about tuning.Lets here some rants...

pa-pa-platypus Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 im not a huge fan of tuning much below 30 hz lowest i would ever tune is 28.. i like around 33-36 hz depending on the sub for just a music street beater Quote This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP. Put the work in and then maybe get the respect when it has been earned 151.6 with single 12 at 41 hz 153.2 with 2 12's at 43 hz power: dd m4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

97SSBlazer Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) Im tuned at 29.5xHz. Edited March 27, 2012 by 97SSBlazer Quote lower tuning is just hard.

And do you get port noise when punchy songs are? whats the plus and minus of below 30Hz tuning Quote R.I.P...99'Dodge Grand Caravan 03 Lancer Oz Big 3 HU-JVC KD-530 RCA's-rockerfosgate 41/2 inch Infinity mids Subs-(12's)2 Orion xtr124 Amp-Coustic600se battery-2 x stock, 1x Shuriken SK-BT20 Box-L-ported 3.562cubes@35Hz miscellaneous-stinger volt-meter, gain nob, (coming soon bass pro,eq,line drive) I dont have flex yet but damn I sound good,(coming soon....flex) Check out my HHR install Everything I install or build here:http://s1160.photobu...s/q485/MrBfree/ Also video's of my Car with the new box.http://www.youtube.c...lentGyge/videos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
