Sundown Audio

Recommended Posts

I was wondering, about how much cubic ft I need in a ported box for 2 SA-10 to get the most out of them, and the most sound quality. Also what would be a good Hz to tune at

Box will be 15x35x15. Ported and slanted, because of my hatch back, trying to optimize trunk space :)

Was wondering how much room I need for the 10s so I can figure in slant

the sa 10s needs 1 cube to 1.25 cubes. i would range my tuning from 32 to 35 which ever you prefer. but the 32 hz would prob sound the best in my opinion. i have 2 e10 subs in a box tuned to 34 hz and they sound really good but still think 32 makes most of the high bass sound better. i have the cut sheet for my box if your interested. everything is about the same for the e10s and sa10s for box volume.

Tuning lower won't make the "high bass" sound better.

I was planning on running it within the 32-35 hz range. Probably 33 or 35. Was also going to have about 1.1 cubic feet per sub to give it room, wanted to make sure i was about right though.

But if you can send me the box layout you made, that would be great

my brother has the same subs and its tuned 32 and it sounds a little better idk. im not a expert but some high notes sound a little cleaner on the 32hz thats all im saying. just the overall sq i would say is better

Most likely the car is causing that effect to happen or the box isnt built to spec.

SD, thank for the input. I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .
