AI James Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 depends on personal preference but usually 35-40hz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n8ball2013 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I agree anywhere from 35 to 40 hz is ideal. I usually don't tune above 35 for daily.

Nightshade Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 For daily I tune all my boxes for my own vehicle to 37hz. It's not too low and not too high. It will play 30hz no problem as well as 50hz with ease. Everything from The Dave Matthews Band to E-40 sounds good and can be played loud on my box in my car. The rolloff is pretty nice too. I've only tested it on burps and the peak note for my daily box is 43hz and will do a 151.9 there. I haven't tested the rolloff since I've made upgrades but when it did a 151.3 at 43hz it would do a 150.2 at 35hz and even a 149.7 at 30hz as well as a 149.8 at 47hz and still put up a 149.0 at 50hz. It also helps to know the resonant freq of your vehicle so you can tune around that. You can still get very loud tuning away from the resonant freq but it takes more work. In my case the resonant freq of my ZX3 is 52hz and I tune to 37hz. While I can do a 151.9 with a box that is tuned to 37hz peaking at 43hz I have my spl box that is tuned to 46hz peaking at 52hz and does a bit over a 153. I am getting an increase due to the cabin gain. May I ask what kind of vehicle is it? That would honestly help me to tell you where would be a good place to start for tuning that will give you some cabin gain. Unless your only interested in playing super low freq's like some people then it's not a good idea to tune around your resonant freq cause it will more than likely be too high unless you have a large suv.

Well..as of right now I have a 1997 Ford Contour..but when summer comes around I might be upgrading to something else..everything is stock except for the stereo system.

Nightshade Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Well..as of right now I have a 1997 Ford Contour..but when summer comes around I might be upgrading to something else..everything is stock except for the stereo system. Well lucky for you my wife had a 1996 contour and is the exact same thing. What seemed to work well was the woofer firing foward and the port to the driver's side on the side of the enclosure. I cut all the plastic pannel that is on the back wall of the trunk mounted to the rear seats. It helped to get some of the sound into the vehicle but it pretty much sucks since the seats don't fold down at all. You might be able to try cutting the rear deck out some to port it there. I think that would work but it is going to be trial and error. I can tell you to tune around 37 in that car and you'll be good. While I never metered the car I did have a box in there tuned to 36 and it did great for her.

Once I do i will show you and see what you guys think, and do you think 36 hz would be a good frequncy in like a 2001ish tahoe or Ford Escape. I plan on getting an SUV because I need the height and 4x4 because I live on gravel and they like never plow my road so a car isnt gonna cut it but i want some gas mileage so i didnt want a truck Quote http://www.youtube.c...er/SmallTownSPL 2002 Chevy Blazer Substage: Shhh, its a secret Mids and Highs: Stock-Going to change soon Amp:MTX 92001 Wire:1/0 Welding cable Electrical:Stock http://www.stevemead...__fromsearch__1 I hope she was meaning that to you.
