tequila Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 34hz isnt too high at all. its all personal preference i guess. people call 33hz the most commonly used frequency.

Marlo Stanfield Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Like 6.5ft3 @ 34hz w/ 90in2 of port would work well with that power. Quote 1998 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer...

CaptainzPlanetz Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) is port size measured by WxH? of port? You mean Port area? Yes, you take the WxH and you get your port area, so if your have a port that is 2in. Wide and 12in Tall your port area is 24sq. inches of port. You generally want to stay within 12-16sq. inches of port per cubic foot. Edited October 26, 2009 by CaptainzPlanetz Quote ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............
