Need help figuring out tuning.

[BassIsLife]

Hey guys,

I have a DD 3512 sc, and I built a ported box for it because I wanted a lower tuned box more for SPL because I love lower/deeper bass.

But i'm not quite sure how to know what I am tuned at, and I've also read that tuning your box low ( like 32-30 hz ) isnt good for SPL.

so I was wondering if anyone had some opinion's on this topic and could help me out.

my DD is running off a DD m1c 1700 RMS

Thanks guys

low tuning will push more air and sound better on music. People who compete in SPL usually tune higher, its unpleasent to listen to, but hits high on the meters. I've always been a fan of low tuned boxes.

tune low to play low. tune high for numbers on the meter

You can download torres box calculator and toss your specs in there and it may give you a rough idea of what the box is tuned at. You can also run the the system on a termlab and see where you peak at.
