Kian Posted October 19, 2008 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 (edited) i was thinking of making a box around 30 Hz for sound quality, now i was wondering if that is to low. and second question is for a SPL box. i want to tune it around 48 Hz, or should i go higher?

Fish Chris Posted October 19, 2008 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 Hey kkiiaann33, of course their are a million and one posible variables (with subs, enclosures, power, etc}.... but generally speaking, I don't think 30hz is too low for an SQ box, and I think 48hz is probably good for many SPL setups (maybe a little higher). Anyway, I wish I knew how to ask such "general questions"..... maybe I'd get more responses :-) Maybe you can help me out with this.... Peace, Fish i was thinking of making a box around 30 Hz for sound quality, now i was wondering if that is to low. and second question is for a SPL box. i want to tune it around 48 Hz, or should i go higher?

BigPimpin91 Posted October 19, 2008 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 (edited) 30hz is great for SQ. For an SPL box, I would find the Resonant frequency of your car and tune 3-5hz lower.

Kian Posted October 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 iight cool. because right now im running a Fi BTL and in a box that i dont know whats its tuned to. i think around 47Hz buts its a smaller so im going bigger. when i try to play bass i love you the woofer sounds weird and slaps or somthing. so i guess im going to tune it around 30 Hz for daily and 49Hz for SPL.

Oh for the love of god ditch that song or learn how to use a sub-sonic filter....your bottoming your sub out which means your voicecoil is slamming itself against your motor.
