What makes a subwoofer really hit low?

Woofer selected, box design, amp's subsonic filter setting, and vehicle it is installed in.

first off you have been told multiple times to go and so some searching! That is vital to understand your enclosure. It seems that most car audio enthusiast do not want to put in their own work these days and want everyone to "give" them specs and enclosure's instead of actually going out and learning and reading.

Second is that you stated you have no clue what your box is tuned to because you just bought it off craigslist. That is the second issue. After you do some research start with building your boxes.. if you don't have a saw have them to cut the wood for you.

The only way you will being to understand things is by putting in the work to learn it not just going around and asking questions.. once you start putting in the work then you will understand that there is much more to this audio thing..

but then again wtf do i know im just a hater

first off, i have looked into enclosures. Exactly as i have stated in every topic of mine JUST GAINING YOUR OPINIONS. I don't argue with you guys. I don't attempt to prove you wrong. I sit back and absorb. If i sit and read topic after topic of information that i don't understand from the search bar. i'll have questions. That's why i ask here. So they can be answered. Otherwise, just reading foreign information to me will become overwhelming and it'll begin to blur and be a useless effort.

In this topic specifically, i believe i asked which part of a system really makes it hit low. In no manner is that asking to be spoon fed. It's looking to gain opinions and increase my knowledge.

I appreciate you guys' help and opinions immensely. It's just sone people obviously forget they were once beginners and not the pros at car audio that they are now.

End of rant. Lol

ya know what your right... but if you did do your research you would know that by taking one of your subs and putting it into a box so it can get a full 1200watts when your subs is only rated at 600rms leads me to believe that you have not done enough research.

but i will stay out of it.. good luck on learning

That, sir, was me just being a complete idiot. Had i thought before i typed it may have hit me. Maybe lol. I can admit that.

But i never thought a mod on here would be the one criticizing a noob, or anyone in general, so hard.

you can read and search all you want, building and testing is the only way you will find what works best. Experience is king, and failing is the best way to learn.

as for your question, you could have the best sub and box and your car might just suck for playing low notes. It might be a low end monster.

I find that anyone here, mods included, tend to not spare criticism when they feel it's warranted. And personally, I don't think that's a bad thing.

How else are you supposed to know you're about to do/try something really boneheaded if someone with more experience doesn't point it out to you?

[dawgs007]

No, sir, you have a great one.

I'm not disputing that. But for some reason he came off in an arrogant haughty manner. Just seemed like a damn know-it-all.

I'm beginning to think it's the box more than anything. But, I'm sure the 3" thick foam between the trunk and cab doesn't help my cause either lol.

T/S specs and ENCLOSURE design.

Now use the search button and do some learning.

Your answer was in the very first response. It's your box.
