4th order question/Box question

[Neckbeard]

Why dont you want to tune 4th order low? And if i did, what would happen? The box is going to be 29Hz, What box would you guys recommend? Going to be Sub up port back. Size isnt a problem lol

sealed part dictates how low it can play. ported part dictates how high it will play. thats from what i've read. not too sure if its 100% right or not. but if you tune to 29hz, people will laugh at how stupid you are

Laugh at how stupid the 4th order is or how stupid i am for tuning that low?

The second one.

I think as n8 once put it. Just cuz it's tuned to 44 hz doesn't mean it won't get low and jiggle your balls

• well ofc i know 40hz will play lows, but i want a box that is a low end monster, 25-37 is the sweet spot that i want my box to peak at

With this in mind, could i increase the sealed volume a wee-bit and make the ported like..35hz? to make it slump on the low end?

[Neckbeard]

If the fourth order is out of the question for low end peaking, What type would you recommend?

[Trey_Dog650]

A t-line depending on the FS of the sub.

Idk if it would be safe to tune a 4th order that low. But I don't know much so build it and let us know!

[Neckbeard]

Its a DC level 5 15" and then one more way later down the road

I think there is more to how a 4th works than just tuning. The sealed/ported ration is a factor too.
