SA x12 v2 D2/Best SPL frequency for ported enclosure

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

 

I recently bought a sundown audio x12 v2 D2, sundowns website recommends 32hz.

 

But my question is what's the best frequency for more spl out of this sub? I've read that people do 45-50hz and also read that people do 28-30hz, so which is best for a PORTED enclosure?

 

Vehicle: 2016 Hyundai accent sedan(completely stock electrical system)

 

Amp: Hifonics BRZ1700.1 (I'll be running the sub at 1ohm as well)

Tuning higher will get you a higher peak SPL in most cases, but you will lose your ability to play the lows.  Everything is a trade off.  There isn't one "best" tuning frequency, it all depends on what your goals are, what kind of music you listen to, etc.
