home audio sub? need help


Recommended Posts

ok so ive never even attempted home audio before so i need a couple of questions.

1. have a 12" dual audio sub. 30$ one from wally world. what should i tune to? i wanna be able to play low so i always heard you tune to low 20s for home audio is this true? i dont wanna do a t-line quite yet so no t lines.

2. where should i place the sub? its gonna be in a small 10' by 10' room

3. any suggestions when designing the box? is there any rules to follow like alot of port area or just normal amount?

any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Tune low if it's for home theater.

If you're just playing music then similar to a car setup.

Place in a corner of the room and it will increase your output.
