banginAltima Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Are you planing on doing tones or bass racing? If you want to do tones you need to know your freq. Tell the people that you don't know your freq. They can help you out with that. Quote If you build it, db's will come...

Mastersound15 Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 huh? young jeezy's cd or dj unk has some good bass huh? every event I have competed in has provided a cd to do a sweep and use whatever frequency you need.

They will probably have you run a sweep of frequencies from somewhere around 90Hz to 20Hz. That will narrow it down and get you close to your peak freq. Since this is your first time you should start about 2 to 3 hz lower and then track up after about 3 to 4 seconds. Quote If you build it, db's will come...
