why?

[badfish]

if you go to a tool concert for example and they use 18 in subs why do people say you should only have 15s or 18s if you only listen to rap? i dont get it whats the reasoning?

[Neo_frog]

There is no reasoning. They are completely uneducated in car audio.

You can use ANY size sub woofer for rap.

not funny but kinda. i really want to know why people think big subs only work for rap who started that? any bass guitar amp has big subs dont people think about that?

I wasn't really trying to be funny. This is 100% true.

It's also true, however, that a general trend of drivers is the larger the size, the lower the Fs. But this is misleading because it's not a rule, but a general trend. People easily misconceive something they heard from a buddy or a noob as cold hard fact.

i meant people think u cant listen to anything but rap on anything bigger than a twelve, i dont like rap rb at all doesnt mean i cant have sublime tool floyd or nirvana playing with 18s

[ingramcaraudio]

It's just the sound certain people want i don't mind listening to rap on 10's or metal on 15's Just some people just like the low bass associated with rap and use bigger subs to get it.

Post dumping?

People that say such things aren't very smart.

All sizes of woofers can be used for every kind of music.

I bet thors car slumps on some gucci or yung joc and trippi kills some lamb of god. It's a pretty bad misconception. Those are just 2 of many examples that could be listed from this site that put stuff like that to rest
