breaking in vvx help lows?


Recommended Posts

My friend just got 2 vvx 15s and they're on his hifonics Brutus 2100 and we built a box at 4.7 cbft at 33-34hz with 14.5 of port per inch and they drop of right under 33hz. Do they just need to break in a couple weeks or do these subs just need a lower tuned box to hit lows? I feel bad cause I designed this box and he's already brought up possibly selling them after 20 minutes of being in his car lol

Well on skars website it says like 2.1-3.0 cbft for 1 15 and I figured even though 600 watts is conservative a box on the small-middle size couldn't hurt

Mine played way down past 26hz after they broke in tuned to 31. When I first started playing them they could hardly hit 40hz. People want something to really bang with out letting them loosen up? Lol...

Well first the box was a tad over 5cbft but when I was designing it I forgot to add speaker displacements (mega noob move) and we already had pieces cut when I realized I didn't add the displacements so it ended up being 4.7. I also told him to let em break in some cause outta the box they barely moved when you press on them lol

So you didnt calculate the smaller box and how the port tuning would change because of losing a half cube
