MrEwubbsZ Posted December 29, 2012 Report Posted December 29, 2012 Im building a seal box for my girlfriends truck Im using a Hifonics HFX12D4. I was wondering how am i going to know what this will be tuned to? I was going to do 19x19x9 Enclosure which is comes out to 1.33cf. Heres the link to the sub http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_37709_Hifonics-HFX12D4.html 2000 Ranger Build Log
OrionStang Posted December 29, 2012 Report Posted December 29, 2012 Its not tuned to anything, but will probably peak at the resonant freq of the vehicle. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread
SnowDrifter Posted December 29, 2012 Report Posted December 29, 2012 Sealed enclosures don't have tuning lol ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444
MrEwubbsZ Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Posted December 29, 2012 So it will pretty much just be whatever the truck lets it be? Probably a dumb question. Im just not sure. 2000 Ranger Build Log
barney91 Posted December 29, 2012 Report Posted December 29, 2012 I thought sealed box are tuneable for example a large box plays lower hz better then a small box Alpine 9884 RF T2 comp set up front The Epicenter 2x RF T10001bd 2x Sundown sa-15 t-line Big 3 Smd DD-1
Joe X Posted December 30, 2012 Report Posted December 30, 2012 So it will pretty much just be whatever the truck lets it be? Probably a dumb question. Im just not sure. Sealed enclosures will peak if too small, also avoid doing a perfect cube, the recommended volume will be ok for it. May help adding some damping specially with small boxes.
Flashpoint Posted December 30, 2012 Report Posted December 30, 2012 As everyone else has said, there's no real "tuning" for a sealed box. However, there IS an f3, and cabin gain of course. But keep in mind you won't get that hump of extra output near the frequency tuning you'd get with a ported enclosure. Sealed enclosures typically DO play lower overall than ported, but just a flatter output.
