Ported enclosure and subsonic filter

[Raven]

I'm told to go with a ported enclosure, you'll benefit from a subsonic filter.

This is probably a dumb question, but ebay turns up this, a passive adjustable subsonic filter. However, all the frequencies are a multiple of five. Would I have to port the box to the same frequency, or would a Xhz enclosure and X-4hz subsonic filter work fine?

EDIT: Just to make myself sound more like an idiot: this thread answered this, but I have no idea what a 1/2 octave would be.

one octave below is half of the frequency
so 1/2 octave is half way between that frequency and the frequency of one octave below

Here we go.

On full octave down from 100 hz would be 50 hz, right? One full octave up would be 200. One octave up = double the frequency, one octave down = half the frequency.

Therefore, since I want to port it near 30, I would have to filter out 15 and below. That peticular crossover will handle down to 20. It should be alright.

yes, one octave below 30Hz is 15 Hz, but 1/2 an octave below 30Hz is 22.5 Hz since 22.5 is half way between 15 and 30
