What is your box tuned to?


Recommended Posts

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...

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

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

Im tuned at 29.5xHz.

Edited by 97SSBlazer

lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz.

I'm tuned to 26hz right now

You guys below 30Hz I'm sure you have tuned higher before, so what is your final thought.will you stay low.are you limited to one or so types of music. And do you get port noise when punchy songs are? whats the plus and minus of below 30Hz tuning

i know with my old wall i was tuned to 27 hz and it was nasty nasty on the lows

as for the highs it played in the 40s fine not as loud but still did some shit but i think thats just due to the fact that i had 4 15s behind head

cone area made up for tuning
