jizzybizzy Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Is it possible to tune a computer woofer lower? i have the logitech g51 5.1 surround sound shitters - and figured its a box... with a port... why couldnt it be tuned different? anyone know how? i want it lower to like 40 hz or something ... so i know what would pound in my car instead of hearing a completely differnt sound.

jizzybizzy Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 build a box with the tuning you want... besides that... i knew that lol... but like changing the port size or anything? i dont know how ports work exactly... would i need to make the port larger or smaller to make it lower?

Btrash Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 (edited) Tuning lower takes more port sq. in. EDIT: Actually a longer port of the same diameter because you could have more sq. in with a bigger diameter and have higher tuning. Try getting some different length PVC pipes the same diameter as the port and seeing if putting that in addition to the port there gives you the desired sound. Although with the small size of the sub box, you probably won't get your desired tuning. Edited August 21, 2008 by Btrash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jizzybizzy Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 (edited) according to the port calculator... (which is my new favorite toy) i would a 1inch in diameter port and keep the same length to get to 40hz ... which doesnt sound right edit- the port now is 3inches in diameter.. so i would be taking away sq in.

Audiobahnaholic Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 On round ports, the smaller the tube the shorter the port to tune lower, the bigger the tube the longer to get lower tuning.
